Sound Problems: Echo\Stutter\Cut-

I recently upgraded my video card and ever since the sound on my Soundblaster Audigy Platinum for games and certain Internet sites (e.g., Pandora.com)has been bad. It is hard to describe but it is a combination of an echo/stuttering with bits of sound getting cuting off. I have never had any problems with the sound before but this is making applications and sites unusable. Sound for some applications like Windows Media Player and Creative PlayCenter are fine.

You need to goto, in windows, control panel>quicktime>audio tab and see if "Safemode" is checked. If not check it hit OK and reboot the PC for the settings to take

Sound Problem in Final Cut Pro

I have noticed that when I export to DV format, my audio channels get all mixed up and I have no idea what to do. Does anyone have a suggestion or has anyone noticed this issue as well? If I export to iPod format, for example, I do not experience this issue.
Thanks for your time and help,
Rybo

I apologize, let me clarify. The first channel would play from a different point on the timeline and the second channel would play correctly. These two playing together creates a mixed up sound and they are too far off to "realign." I ended up just muting the problem channel. I have done nothing different from my usual workflow; the problem seems to have appeared from nowhere specific that I can tell.
I hope this helps, thanks for your time!

HT5149 Hi, I still have problems reinstalling Final Cut Pro even though I followed these steps. Didn´t find "com.apple.motionapp.plist" to remove though, but the others I found. Reason why I have to reinstall is because I have repaired my Macbook Pro hard

Hi, I still have problems reinstalling Final Cut Pro even though I followed these steps.
Reason why I have to reinstall is because I have repaired my Macbook Pro hard drive at a Mac Authorized Repair.
Short history of repair and my Final Cut Pro installation:
1. Macbook Pro stopped working, sendt it for repair. Had the Final Cut Pro installed,
2. Desided to try a MiniMac and recovered my backup with Time Machine, got the Final Cut Pro working.
3. Got my Macbook Pro back from repair, did backup on this one as well. But this time only the files not the Applications.
4. Removed the files as mentioned in HT5149. Didn´t find "com.apple.motionapp.plist" to remove though, but the others I found.
5. When I try to install Final Cut Pro from App Store, it downloads the application as planned. But after download it won´t show in the Application folder nor in the downloads folder, nor will it start an installation prosess. If I pause the installation in App Store, I can see the Final Cut Pro icon in my Dock. (But, as mentioned, after installation it won´t show neither here or in the Applications folder).
Any suggestions on what I should try now?
Thanks for any reply, I´m in deep water here...

Sounds like there is a file you're not getting. Never do a removal manually. It's so time consuming and a pain. There's a very easy and fast way to do this, safely, properly.
Get the free "Final Cut Remover" app from Digital Rebellion (dot com), use this to remove FCP X.
Reboot the Mac.
Download from scratch.
If you're not seeing FCP X in your app folder, run Disk Utility to Repair all drives.
If that doesn't help, try running Disk Warrior from Altsoft to repair the directories on all drives.

U350 sound problem

Hi
I have a very annoying sound problem on my Lenovo U350. The problem is that when i talk to people using Skype, the sound gets cut off after a little while. When I open Sound options in WIndows the indicator beside the "Speakers" icon shows actvity when the other participant speaks, but there is no sound from the computer (have tried headphones to with no luck).
Here is what I have doen to try fixing the problem:
- Updated to all the latest drivers.
- Updated the BIOS.
- Doen a full recovery of the system.
- Doen a complete, clean reinstall of the OS with the latest drivers.
Nothing helps...
Hope anyone have clue of what might be the problem, because im starting to loose my patience with this computer

I have the same problem. I tried reactivating the speaker, new drivers etc... nothing works besides a reboot. But after 5minutes spekers turn off again. You can plugin external speakers, they always work.

Sound problems with my Visio

Hi, I have read that people are having sound problems with their Vision M players, hissing etc.
I wonder if anyone has had the problem I have - I cannot alter the volume! When I plug in either headphones or portable speakers into the M, using the touch pad has no effect on the volume. If I unplug it the touch pad then alters (or appears to) the volume - judging by the scale on the right of the screen. Plug the phones back in again and I get the same one level of volume.
Also, the screen goes blank when I plug in phones or speakers.
I am an MP3 player virgin and have no idea if the fault is mine or not.
I bought my Vision M from Amazon, who very quickly sent me a replacement when I contacted them - even before I had returned the original. But the replacement has the same problems.
Any comments would be welcome.
John

woggydog, thats what happens when your plugging outputs into the Audio/Video out socket of the player using the dock or supplied connector... it goes into line Out Mode, which cuts out audio from changing since the amplifier would be able to control this on a sound system.
The one that shouldn't do this is the one on the top right of the player.

Ilife Sound Effects and Final Cut Pro Sounds are not appearing in Final Cut Pro X anymore!?

Hello,
I am new to the app Final Cut Pro X. And recently when I have gone into the Music and Sound Folder in final cut pro the option for Ilife Sound Effects and FCPX Sound Effects do not appear. I have read other forums and they have said to drag the sound files into FCPX but that isn't even a option. It onlt has iTunes options, please reply back someone this is stressing me out. I don't know if it is because of Mavericks or whatever but it is driving me insane and I need help!
This is what it looks like .

This is a known issue in FCP X 10.1 and you will find many posts about it in the forum just do a search. Several solutions have worked for different users. Try the following:
1. Open and close GarageBand then relaunch FCP
2. Open and close iPhoto then relaunch FCP
3. Close and reopen FCP
4. Trash FCP preferences then relaunch FCP
Any one of these may work. Just try them in any order. Be aware the problem may recur.

When Should I Correct The Sound Problems?

I have a set of interview clips in an iMovie '08 project. Originally the video was recorded with two mikes, with one mike on each channel ( L and R). Unfortunately, on some of them, the mike level for one of my interviewees is much lower than for the other, which I need to correct. I also want to put the sound from both mikes onto both the L and R channels, instead of one on each channel.
I have done all my splitting and transitions and titles all that stuff, and am ready to export the clips into a final movie. However, I need to sort out the sound problems.
So - my question is this: is it better to fix the sound in iMovie '08 first, before exporting - and if so - what the best way to do this? Or should I export the movie, and if so, into what format, and how would I then edit the sound? I do own Final Cut Express but have never used it.
Or... is there a better way than these [e.g. exporting into some other program BEFORE compiling into a final movie, and then bringing back into iMovie '08]?
Thanks!

Kanan, the difference you already know, blade .vs rack mount. There are some CPU differences, but not much. Both can be managed by UCSM in version 1.4.x
So it really is ones preference on what you are using it for and how scalable you want things to be for future expansion.
Blades: easy, as you can buy a chassis and have 2 blades in that one chassis and add blades as needed. If using boot from San, can get a server back up in minutes
Rack mount: can take rack space more quickly, takes time to duplicate in case of a failed server
Very small differences, but hope this helps to start the wheels turning.
Good Luck!

Kde4: sound problems

Hello,
I recognize 2 sound problems with kde4 here: The kde startsound is not fully played (cut after 2-3 seconds) and in general the sound is very quiet although the mixer controls are at the top, e. g. when playing an internet video.

I think the login in sound cuts out if you are logging into a session and another program steals sound focus. I only say this because the same thing happens on my desktop and it happens as pidgin and my systray apps start coming up.
On your mixer applet see what the label is, the default on mine after I upgraded was PCM I would move that up to about 80 and then right click on the applet itself and choose Select Master Channel
I was able to choose Front which seems to another way of saying main or master, as once I chose that the volume levels were more satisfactory.

What sound problem - no sound on anything, no sound on some apps ?
Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

Desperately need some help!! iTunes/Quicktime/iChat/Sound problems....

So, yesterday, I was online, on google video, and when I pressed play on the video, there was no sound, but the video worked...the same was true on every video site i checked. My computer volume was at max, and I even tested the speakers to make sure they were on, and they indeed were.
I thought that was odd...but then the problems really started.....
After that, I clicked on my iChat icon. It bounced once, and did not open. The same thing happened when I clicked on iTunes. 1 bounce, and then nothing. I checked to make sure all of my iTunes mp3 files were on my computer....they indeed are all still here, bit nothing I can do opens iTunes. I've run disc utilities, and disc repair...according to that, everything is peachy-keen on my computer.....but iChat and iTunes STILL will not open, and there is still no sound on anything.
Now, i'm leaning towards the archive and install option....or even just backing up what I want to save, wiping the drive, and starting from scratch.....but i'd really like to not have that happen.
(and, as a side question, if all I want to save are images, several documents, and many mp3 files, would everything be okay if I just backed them up on an external drive, and then loaded them back on to my computer after reinstalling OS X?)
Sorry about the length of this, but I am at my wit's end, and I have no idea what to do.

by third-party, do you mean things I installed that are not manufactured by mac? If that is the case, I have microsoft office, Smart Music, Flip4mac, and Senuti.
I got rid of Flip4Mac to see if that affected my sound problems, but it did not. So, as of now, my problem remains the same...

Did you download and install the Windows Support software? First step in Bootcamp Assistant is to download the support software. Then did you install the support software from within Windows?

Sound problems on ProBook 6550b, running on Win 7 Pro x32bit..

I have been getting very similar sound problems on my notebook as posted by most: internal speakers work on original Audio HD drivers, but there is no sound when I connect external speakers or headphones. I up-graded the audio drivers to IDT HD Audio and I get sound coming from external speakers or headphones, but nothing from internal speakers.
I have tried everything from reporting the problem on public forums, live help, and done this or that, but nothing changes. It's so very clear to me that it has to do with audio drivers, which don't seem to work appropriately to cover all aspects of sound output.
I also, often, get this loud, weird, irritating noise and a frozen PC when I am playing music with the notebook, while on the internet. The best I do is not to do both at the same time. I have seen similar problems on blogs, but tangible solutions are NOT offered!!!! Please help...

Audio Switching coudl be due to several reason. if you have tried latest audio drivers and latest Video drivers from hp.com, i suggest you to get audio board replaced for your computer.
Hope it helps.

Any resolution to the sound problem?

I have been having the same sound problem with my Mid 2010 Mac Pro tower ever since I got it. I have been in touch with Apple and have been told that they are familiar with the problem, but that they are still working on a fix. The problem is that I have external speakers, and every time I shut down and then start up again, I have to go to preferences and physically change the sound output to go to the speakers. I have also been tole that the Mac is supposed to sense the external speakers and go directly to them.
Is there anybody else out there with this problem, and has been able to resolve it?
Thank you.

I have a 2010 Mac Pro and use the stereo line out jack in the back of my machine for my speakers with no problem. I don't recall any problems setting it up. But check the Audio MIDI Setup (in your utilities folder) to see if you can set it from there (should be able to). Not sure why the preference wouldn't stick. And I don't believe there is automatic detection of an attached sound output device where the sound preference switches to that (unless maybe the front jack which I never use).

fdisk formated and reinstaled windows 3 times. fresh install each time i installed a sound card. so I dont think lingering drivers is the problem which also means dx9 has been installed fresh each time.also I have been dealing with this for nearly a month and I am at a loss.
