Simple Narration Editing Help Needed

Hello,
I am brand new to audio editing and SB. I have recorded a narration. There was a little bit of background noise and the peak levels were a little too high (going into the red a little too often). I selected a piece of the background recording where no narration exists and used the "Capture Noise Print" in the Clean Up Audi0 - Noise panel to get rid of the background noise. Then I "Equalized Volume Level" to take care of the peaking problem. However, now the voice is a little on the tinny side. Can anyone suggest how I can get rid of that tinny sound and bring back the richness? Or perhaps a tutorial?
Any suggestion on how to record with proper levels would be helpful as well.
Thanks,
Mike

I have the same problem.
Did you ever figure this out?
Using the Effect Fix:Remove Hiss seemed to work better, but there is still a significant amount of background noise when no one is talking.
It did seem to help to set the Noise -> Reduction value down to 30 or so using the Preview and Green switch to hear the difference.
I'm still looking for the best workflow to cleanup a group discussion setting and would appreciate anyone else's experience.

  • Simple HTML page HELP needed

    Hi all,
    Here's my dilemma:
    I've got this simple html page that I've made with
    dreamweaver CS3. On the starting page I want to put a section
    called "NEWS", under which there would be essentially a texfield
    with the news. Now, I don't want to put the news text in the html
    code. Rather, I'd like the code to somehow take this text from a
    separate text file which I could edit at will and simply overwrite
    on the host server so that changes are seen in browsers.
    I don't need a real CMS (besides, CMS is way over my head).
    Just this one text field. I've tried with the textfield/text
    area/HTML object/etc. in the 'insert' tool but none worked. Can
    this be done at all? Appreciate any help.

    You can do this with a server-side include. The first thing
    you need to
    do is to find out whether your hosting company has enabled
    server-side
    includes, or if you have access to a server-side language
    such as ASP or
    PHP. The way that you create a server-side include is
    slightly different
    in each type of setup.
    When you have found what your remote server supports, someone
    can give
    you further instructions.

  • Simple BIP Report help needed

    Hi All ,
    I am bit new to BI Publisher,I have done plenty of Oracle reports 6i and 10g.
    Have read the BIPublisher Guide as well,but could not understand a few points.
    suppose I want to build a very very simple report like
    Sysdate Sysdate Sysdate
    16-Oct-08 16-Oct-08 16-Oct-08
    step 1) I will write the following query in the Data Model and store/save it.
    select sysdate ,sysdate,sysdate from dual.
    Step 2) In the layout model I want to use .rtf layout .So in the MS word .rdf document I create /insert

    Now to fetch date 3times(the data) from the above query,WHAT is going to be my next steps ????
    I am not able to understand the link between the layout(.rtf document) and XML document.
    Please can someone reply to this question and let me know ?

    PS If you have been doing reports for as long as you say you prob. know this already...but I NEVER* trust Oracle to convert my dates. I convert them all to char, pass them and convert them on "the other side" (if needed). But, you can change the data type to date if you feel brave, but don't say I didn't warn you. ;-)

  • Images smaller printed then edited, help needed

    Hello everyone.
    I'm using LiveCycle Manager 8.0 on Win XP SP3
    When building a new form i got various problems with images being printed smaller then what is defined and shown in the edited and also in preview mode.
    The problem occurs with images that are being included with Image Fields.
    The problem gets even bigger if i place the images by showing them by the push of a button (script)
    Pictures will not be x/y placed and sized as defined in the layout parameter
    Here are some details about the pics:
    Larger header pic 17.7 x 8.0 cm, 300dpi
    Smaller pics bellow 17.7 x 1.6 cm, 300dpi
    Here are some screen shoots to show you how it looks.
    Any help would be great as I really tried a lot but can't find a solution.
    Designmode:
    Preview Mode
    Final PDF messed up
    PS: LiveCycle Manager also seems to run very bugy. Sometimes it crashes when changing a image parameter.

    Hi,
    OK I am trying to get to grips with what you are trying to achieve.
    The preview now shows how the form will look in Acrobat (Form / Properties / Preview / Interactive).
    In the top imageField I cannot explain why the displayed image is not as per the design view. Because it works for an image object (rev 1 in previous post), I suspect that it is a bug in the imageField object.
    There are workarounds however it would depend on the number of options (images) that the user has to select and if these images will change over time. If there are a small number of options, you could include all of the images in a series of image objects that are hidden and then change the visibility depending on what the user selects. This would be easier for the user because they would not have to browse to an image location.
    In relation to the "Geben Sie hier einen Titel ein |" header; if you are looking to change the background colour, then there is a simpler way, which i have included in rev 2.
    You can script rectangles for presence, colour, etc. The rectangle cannot contain the script, but you can include script in a button that will affect the presence and appearance (look) of the rectangle.
    Hope that helps,
    Niall

  • Simple Xmonad configuration help needed.

    I have no idea how haskell works at all. But I simply love xmonad!
    Could someone help me out with my configuration? It is currently
    import XMonad
    import XMonad.Config.Xfce
    main = xmonad xfceConfig
    This works pretty well for me, for the most part. However, I need a few keybinding. First, I want ctrl-alt-arrow to change desktops and I found I can do this with "XMonad.Actions.CycleWS", which I have installed and the configuration of:
    , ("M-<Left>", prevWS )
    , ("M-<Right>", nextWS )
    , ("M-S-<Left>", shiftToPrev )
    , ("M-S-<Right>", shiftToNext )
    However, I have no idea how to do this. Also, I would like XF86AudioRaiseVolume to execute "amixer set Master 5dB+" and XF86AudioLowerVolume to "amixer set Master 5dB-" and XF86AudioMute to "amixer set Master toggle". I know I could easily do this with xbindkeys or some other extra keybinding daemon, but I want to learn how to do this the correct way in haskell. Thanks!

    Is this your whole xmonad.hs ? Anyway for the keybindings part ( for multimediakeys i use xbindkeys because i use the same xmonad.hs on my laptop plus desktop ) , but you can do it without xbindkeys wich is much nicer, less apps needed. If your keys are already reconignized as XF86AudioMute then you wouldnt have to use xmodmap. You can define keys in two various ways in XMonad with the additional keysP (Util.EZconfig ) or with keys = Mykeys
    I always learn from looking into others people's configs , so here is an config from another arch user. Look for the section myKeys, and define something like :
    , ("<XF86AudioLowerVolume>", spawn amixer set Master 5dB+)
    if you are interested here is my config

  • Simple java applet help needed

    hi, im having trouble with an applet im developing for a project.
    i have developed an applet with asks the user for simple information( name,address and phone) through textfields, i wish for the applet to store this information in an array when an add button below the textfeilds is pressed.
    client array[];
    array=new client[];//needs to be an infinate array!
    I have created the client class with all the set and get methods plus constructors needed but i dont know how to take the text typed into the textfields by the user and store them in the array.
    i also need to save this info to a file and be able to load it back into the applet.
    Could some please help! Thank you for your time.

    Better maybe redefine the idea using an data structure :

    private char name[];
    private char address[];
    private int phone;
    public class vector_clients{
    private client vect[];
    // methods for vect[]

  • Adobe digital editions (help needed asap)

    I keep getting an error message saying adobe digital editions 2.0 has stopped working, How do i fix

    Depends why it stopped working.  You could try uninstall and reinstall.
    Unfortunately, ADE2.0/2.0.1 is a terrible program riddled with bugs,
    unless you need a feature it does not have the best solution is to install 1.7.2.
    There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0 (and 2.0.1).  Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
    (You can have them both installed at once if you like.)
    Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions.html
    The forum software is sometimes corrupting the link above.  There shouldn't be a blank in 'editio ns.html'.  The following redirects to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/diged172
    Some people have found ADE trying to upgrade automatically. 
    It appears (not 100% sure) that if you install ADE2.0 as a new install (not as an upgrade) that your 1.7.2 will continue to run.
    Probably best to say no if 2.0.x installation asks if you want to migrate your library.

  • Simple Sound Recording - Help needed

    Hi there
    Im wondering if this is possible and if so , does anbody know offhand where I can find a basic implementation of this typea thing...
    I simply need to be able to read in a wav file, then record it and give it a different name. I am just trying to get this basic functionality sorted, because I will be progressing on to reading in a file, runninig some DSP algorithm on it, and then needing to save it back out, so I elieve that I need to write it in chunks much the same as the SourceDataLine buffers the sound...err am i making sense?
    I have been trying to do this with TargetDataLine, and its just getting the better of me at the moment, I am able to read in the file and play it as normal, its just the recording it to an output file where I am failing.
    thanks a million
    conaill

    Do I get you right that you want to read a sound file into memory and then store it back to the hard disk? If this is the case, try this:
    int frameSizeInBytes;
    int bufferLengthInFrames = 32;
    int bufferLengthInBytes;
    byte[] data;
    int numBytesRead;
    BufferedReader mIn;
    AudioFormat format;
    ByteArrayInputStream bIn;
    AudioInputStream outStream;
    File o;
    int soundLength;
    soundLength = 1000;
    f = new File("infile.wav");
    inStream = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(f);
    format = inStream.getFormat();
    frameSizeInBytes = format.getFrameSize();
    bufferLengthInBytes = bufferLengthInFrames * frameSizeInBytes;
    data = new byte[soundLength];
    o = new File("outfile.wav");
    // read the sound data
    numBytesRead = inStream.read(data, 0, soundLength);
    inStream.close();
    // now write it back
    bIn = new ByteArrayInputStream(data);
    outStream = new AudioInputStream(bIn, format, soundLength);
    AudioSystem.write(outStream, AudioFileFormat.Type.WAVE, o);This reads only a portion of a file, you'll have to modifiy it.
    Hope this helps,

  • Simple bash scripting help needed..

    I want to learn som simple bash scripting in order to automate various tasks.. Im totally noob, so bear with me
    First of all I would like to set configs without using nano.. is there a simple command for this? For example if i want change my hostname in /etc/rc.conf.. how can i print the current vallue and how can i change it`?
    i was thinking something like this to get the current value:
    # cat /etc/rc.conf | grep HOSTNAME=
    which returns HOSTNAME="myhostname"
    how can i change this value with one or more commands whitout touching the rest of the file?

    A slightly naive solution:

    if [ "`echo \" $NAMES \" | grep \" $CHOICE \"`" ]; then
    echo "this is how you do it"
    fi
    The extra spaces inside the escaped quotes are to ensure that only a whole word is "matched".
    You can also replace the elif's with a loop through a list of "the other variables". Then you'd use the loop variable instead of $CHOICE above.
    grep can check on word-bounderies with \< and \>, or with the -w switch. The -q switch suppresses any messages and exits with exit-code 0 when the first match is found:
    if echo "${NAMES}" | grep -qw "${CHOICE}"; then
    Nice and readable, should work, but i haven't tested it
    EDIT:
    Procyon wrote:CHOICE="lisa"
    NAMES="homer marge lisa bart maggie"
    if [[ $NAMES =~ $CHOICE ]]; then echo match; fi
    This one also matches elisa, ie. no check on word bounderies. You should be carefull with that

  • Simple math operation - Help needed

    Hi, i have a simple mathematical operation to do, related to
    a shooping cart, which i want to keep simple.
    I have a input text box named QT1, where customers indicate
    quantity
    I have a dymanic text box, named ST1, where i want the value
    of QT1 to be multiplied by 10$ (hence 10)
    on the release of the button. I have a NaN answer. Here is
    the code.
    on (release) {
    var qt1:Number;
    st1 = qt1 * 10;
    And then, a grand total button will add ST1 + ST2 + ST3, with
    GT the name of the grand total dymamic box:
    on (release) {
    gt = st1 + st2 + st3;
    The second part works, but the first one, with QT1 is giving
    me a Nan (not a number) answer.
    Any help appreciated.

  • Expert editing help needed

    OK, so here is the situation. I filmed my friends son's christening. The ceremony was a feast for the eyes and ears. The audio track is beautiful, and a complete record of the ceremony.
    I want to preserve the audio track and much of the video, while I overlay video clips (without their audio), and stills in places where my camera faltered.
    My problem is, how do I put video/pics over the audio, and cut back to the video of the ceremony while maintaining the synch between the audio/video of the original footage?
    I only know how to trim/split/crop clips, and it seems like it would be near impossible to get the audio and video to match-up every time I splice in new footage.
    I am extracting the audio from the original footage as we speak.
    Thanks in advance
    -Tim

    Under the Advanced menu, use "paste over at playhead" instead of manually cropping/splitting/pasting. Prior to using this command, you will need to copy your clip into memory (command-c).
    This command pastes your clip into your movie, while not affecting the audio track. The movie will get automatically cut the same exact length as the clip you are pasting.

  • Simple Array Question - Help Needed!

    Hey people,
    I need a line of code that gets the maximum value out of an array.
    the array is called LEVELS and contains values [1, 3, 4, 17, 3, 2, 4]. I need a line of code that creates a new variable called MAXLEVEL and finds the largest value within the array.
    Thanks,
    sean :)

    Create a variable. Initialize it to the lowest possible value, like say Integer.MIN_VALUE.
    Loop through your array.
    For each element, see if it's greater than the current value in the variable. If it is, use it.
    When you reach the end of the array, the variable now holds the max value.
    How did you think you were going to do it?
