Sound Distortion AP 11 and 12.

I'm experiencing sound distortion and weak signal after AP upgraded to 11. I downloaded 12 and I still have the problem. Windows 7.

AP? You mean Flash Player?
12 is a beta, so it's not a good idea to use that to remedy playback problems as it's a test product.
Are you experiencing audio issues elsewhere? Windows Media Player, iTunes, Quick Time or VLC for instance?

Sound distortion in iTunes and not in other players

Hello,
I've been experiencing some terrible sound distortion with iTunes that I don't have with any other player (WM player for instance).
I installed version 6 and this doesn't fix any issue.
This doesn't cause any problem when transferring files to iPod but still, have to be fixed!
Has anyone a clue or already fixed this in windows XP?
Thanks

Hi,
I have same problem with my iTunes 6.
You can try this(Helps for me):
1. From the Start menu, select Settings and open the Control Panel
2. Double-click the Multimedia or Sound, Speech & Audio devices icon,
3. Select Sound and Audio Devices, click the Advanced Audio button
4. Select the Advanced tab then
5. Select the Performance tab and find the Hardware Acceleration slider control
hardware acceleration should be set at full.
sample rate conversion quality should be set at best.

Audio sound distorted since 10.6.3 and Pro Apps 2010-01 - bug iTuneshelper

As of OS X 10.6.3 and Pro Apps Update 2010-01 (FPC 7.0.2) I was encountering in both video sound and music sound tracks odd and somewhat unpredictable audio distortion (wrong pitch and left and right stereo sound running out of sync).
This problem seemed to pop up around the end of March 2010.
I have determined that it is related to iTunes 9.0 which has placed in my startup items iTunesHelper which is a startup item, just after AdobeResourcesSynchronizer, iChat and Stickies. I am not certain if it is the order of the startup that introduces the problem or the version of iTunes (which currently is now 9.1).
If you have this item in your startup, just delete it and perhaps your audio problems will go away.

Had the same exact problem. Just got off the phone with Apple Support. The tech asked me to create a test administrator account under Accounts in Systems Preferences. Then log out of account you are currently using and log in to the test account. If you are like me then you will find Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat under Applications. Open Adobe Reader and choose to update it. I actually did not have to choose anything as the program began to update both itself and Acrobat Pro automatically. It will take about 10 minutes, depending on speed of internet and computer speed. Once completed, then logout and log back into your normal administrator account. Both programs should now be updated and you can use them. Delete the test administrator account you created. And, good luck on that school work.

Using Airport Express and music sounds distorted.....

I just hooked up my airport express to my whole house stereo and the music sounds distorted. I've adjusted the volume on the amplifier, the room volume control and the computer volume control.....and it still sounds distorted. Any ideas on what I can do?

Temporarily, plug a pair of headphones into the AirPort Express and check the sound quality. It is OK, you know that everything is working through the AirPort Express.
Often the audio plug will make poor contact with the audio jack on the Express which can cause a hum or intermiitent audio signal. Wiggle the plug around to see if this might be the case. You may need to try another audio cable.
Make sure that you are not plugging into a PHONO input on the amplifier. You would want to use AUX or CD or even TAPE would work if you have an older amplifier/receiver.

Audigy 2 ZS platinum sound distorted and muff

Too bad one cant rant as one might like in this forum. Had writtend all the details that transpired but when i pressed the submit post, my original post was lost due to expiration of time for my ticket.
Now, i use telegraph details.
Bought Audigy 2 ZS platinum, bad sound Distorted and muffled from the speakers except center speaker and no sound at all from rear center speaker. Same setup using Audigy Platinum, zero problems.

Creative Inspire 6600 Speakers/Creative Inspire 5300 Speakers

Fabrizziov,
Is the sound muffled and distorted when you plug headphones into the headphone out on the platinum dri've? If not, plug the headphones into the sound card's front output and run a speaker test to see if it is muffled and distorted from there. If it is then it is most likely a problem with the card's hardware. If this is the case I would suggest exchanging it for another through your retailer. You can also contact support for a repair if needed. Their contact information is at http://us.creative.com/support/custsup.

I play music on my hi fi via an airport express attached to my iMac. Since installing maverick the sound quality is terrible and I get frequent distortion, which never happened before. I have reset the airport express and reconfigure my wireless settings.

I have reset the airport express and reconfigure my wireless settings. I have also used Ethernet on its own but still get the same sound problems.
I would love to turn itunes sound off as you used to be able to do, but this I believe can't be done.
Has anyone else been having the same types of problem, and better still has anyone got the answer?

When the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) is connected by Ethernet, you will find an option in the AirPort Utility, labeled: Enable AirTunes over Ethernet on the Music pane. Just select this option to allow streaming iTunes via the AirPort's Ethernet port. You should also be able to disable the AX's wireless so that it shouldn't interfere with the nearby TC.

My audiobooks sound distorted and I cannot listen to them - the voice echoes

Hi - I recently purchased a few audiobooks onto my ipod nano 6G and they were all fine for a while and suddenly they sound distorted like the voices are echoeing - please can you let me know how I can fix this problem as I really enjoy listening to audiobooks.
Thank you.

Is it on mute? What IOS do you have?
IOS 7.0+: open control center (swipe from under to top) and tap on the bell.
Or, if it has the lock button instead if the bell, switch the switch on your iPad to unmute / mute
IOS 6 and under: Go to settings>General> USE SIDE SWITCH TO and click mute.
Then switch the switch. You're unmuted.
If it still doesn't work, go to a repair shop or apple so they can change the speakers of your iPad.

After 5 minutes, all sound goes all grainy and distorted PLEASE HELP!!

Hello people,
After 5 minutes, all sound goes all grainy and distorted!! Using Logic Pro 8.
This happens especially if I crank the speakers semi-loud. This is not a problem with the speakers as Itunes plays perfectly. I have no idea why this is happening! The problem disappears when I restart Logic only to reappear again 5 minutes later.
The sound goes super grainy and I cant really make out anything. Is Logic overloading the sound card or something? Although this never happened before and it is a Tascam US-144, usually very good.
If anyone knows why this is happening I'd really appreciate some help.
Thank you, all the best!!
Tristan

Hello and thank you for your time! The speakers I do believe are active in that they have their own power source. They are Behringer MS40's. The headphones indeed also suffer the graininess, any sound that comes out of the sound card via Logic!
At the moment the buffer is at maximum of 1024 with a large Process Buffer Range as it runs more smoothly this way. Does it help if I change this? Is there any other settings I can try changing which may realistically fix the problem? Unfortunately the technical side is not my forte, being a songwriter rather than a producer.
Yes Itunes also plays via the Tascam with perfect results!
Unfortunately, this distorted sound and graininess happens with every Logic project, the more Audio tracks it seems, the more frequently.
You have been very kind, thank you. If you have any ideas of how I can fix this then please do let me know.
PS. Something I noticed is that this started happening after some guy screamed into the Mic for a laugh whilst recording and the project instantly crashed. I do believe there is a connection between the Audio tracks and the grainiess rather than the MIDI tracks.
Sometimes I can get a good 15/20 minutes of working time before the sound becomes distorted again! Which is what I've been doing these past 2 days.
All the best,
Tristan

JoBautista,
you still have the option (before your warranty expires) of purchasing an AppleCare Protection Plan, which will provide an additional two years of coverage. Once your warranty expires, you will no longer have the option of purchasing AppleCare.

The question was the phone is under water - not muffled nor low sound. It is getting regular that my iPhone 4S and others I know get the sound distorted as though it is under water. I have reset the phone, turned off wifi (Apple said do this). What can be done?

Meg St._Clair
Thank you. I rang Vodafone and although they were not too technical - they suggested my speaker was broken and was probably interfering with the microphone sound out as well. So thank you for the clue - I must admit to not thinking of ringing my carrier supplier. Thank goodness for two things - it is intermittent and I am due an upgrade phone in 6 weeks. I can manage till then I hope with the watery sound from time to time.

Sound Distortion playing DVDs with Audigy2 Va

Last time I have problems playing DVD movies on my computer: The sound is distorted
by scratches like an old vinyl. I am using a SB Audigy 2 on Win XP. I have tried several software DVD players, reinstalled the old drivers from CD and cleanly installed teh newest drivers via internet auto update. I also tried to update my VIA chipset drivers, deactivated several background programs etc.
I found out that disabling the sound acceleration in DXDiag removes the sound distortion but then the sound (speech, effects) within a movie are extremly quiet compared to the music.
Another thing: First I deinstalled completely the software and drivers from my audigy to replace it with new ones. Then I had to notice that the new Audio Control Center does not support the option to send bass-frequencies to my subwoofer. I could set the speakers to 5. but had no chance to get my subwoofer working. At the moment I have status quo by using new drivers, but my old creative applications for configurating my speakers.

Ijust checked the preferences, go to Disc Setup and on the bottom in the Audio section, check off the box that says "Disable Dolby dynamic range compression" see if that helps.

Output sound distortion when USB Mic Connected

Hi everyone,
Really appreciate anyone’s help on this sound distortion problem.
I have been using the new 2014 iMac 27' for last 8 Months, bought Brand New, and recently updated to Yosemite. Everything worked fine including recording, until this update.
I'm using Blue Yeti USB Mic for recording, and few days after the update I was trying to record in GarageBand and the output sound (via headphone connected to USB MIc) started to distort and then suddenly dropped the bitrate/ sound and I could only hear some clicks. I reinstalled the GargeBand, still its the same distortion happens. The sound gets back to normal, only for few seconds, after I unplug the USB cable from the Mic device. And I tried changing the bit rate and again sounds starts to drop after few sec. This happens only when I connect the Blue Yeti USB Mic and sound output from the Mic itself. Same thing happens with iTunes as well. Output sound from Internal mic and speakers are working fine as normal.
I tried connecting the USB Mic to my Windows laptop and its working fine with the Cubase 5 without any problem. So the problem is with the output sound, when external Mic connected.
I don’t know the solution for this. Have checked on every single blog/ thread, sill couldn’t find the answer I’m looking for, to fix this.
It would be great if you have any kind of a solution for the same.

Nope. The larger buffer didn't work. What did work was running a cord out of the 1/4-inch jack from the direct box to a 1/4-to-1/8-inch adapter and then into the mic/line-in jack on my computer. I set GarageBand to use the built-in line-in and had no static problems. It's a stopgap until this gets fixed.

Itunes sound distortion

All my songs in Itunes when played have distorted sounds, audio clipping or freeze up and this happened all of sudden for no reason with ITunes 9.01 which was working for a few days perfectly until yesterday. I played itunes files in Quicktime with no problem and I been searching forums for help with this issue.
So far I tried updated sound drivers, directx drivers, I changed options on QT in control panel to 16 bit, even put it in wavsound safe mode from the default direct sound, turn off EQ in itunes adjusted preamp & turned off sound enhancer too. I have reinstalled Itunes 9.01 and tried a older version 8.2 with no luck there either. I even updated my windows vista to SP2 for the heck of it hoping it would fix the problem.
I have a sound blaster X-FI and I changed various options with sound card settings with no results. I know it is probably not my system or sound card: Current Specs 3.2 ghz intel processor, 3gig ram, sb blaster x-fi and so on. Also, played music with wmp player and dvds no clipping.
I dont know if this makes difference in identifying the problem, but the windows startup sound clips and distorts too for some reason. I hope someone has the magical solution to fix this issue short of reinstalling windows in hope of fixing the issue.

This worked.
Can Apple / Itunes not just do an upgrade to fix this as I think every one should have the same problem?

My IPad mini is experiencing sound distortion

My IPad mini is currently experiencing some sound distortion, how can I resolve this problem

Have you tried rebooting the iPad?
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
