Stereo sound using SO Write

Hi.
I'm trying to play one tone out of my left speaker and another on my right.
I have configured my sound devise to stereo using "SO CONFIG". Then I send
the tones to "SO Write" using a 2d array.
I hear to tones, but the problem is that the same sound is coming from both
speakers.
I need to have the tones separate to each speaker.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You may want to post this to a Data Acquisition forum, as you would probably be talking with engineers that have more experience with this sort of thing. However, I do have a bit of experience with it. If you are wanting to send out analog signals to the different speakers independently, you will need to have two different channels to write to. Does your sound card supply this capability? I assume that if a card allows stereo sound, it would have multiple channels to write to. Let us know what you find out.

  • How do i get Stereo Sound using the KONA LHE?

    Ok I have a sony HDV HVR-M15 deck, connected to the KONA for video and the audio connected to a mixing desk.
    The KONA is also connected to the mixing desk via analog audio XLR to Jack.
    At the moment everything i capture is mono one channel sound, and can only play through one speaker. Is there a way to capture in stereo??
    At the moment I am getting the KONAs 8 channels of audio, 2 of which are identical and 6 of which are empy!!

    check the pan pot on the desk (the yellow pot just above the solo/mute buttons and fader)
    on the left channel input from the deck turn the pot anti-clockwise all the way to the left
    on the right channel input from the deck turn the pot clockwise all the way to the right
    regarding (unwanted?) the multichannel input, launch FCP and open the Log and Capture window
    click the clip settings tab in the right hand pane
    how many input channels do you have selected in the Audio section
    below that popup you can define whether those channels are captured as stereo or mono pairs by toggling the link icon at left of each audio pair level indicators

  • Using SO Write to play a continuous waveform using PC sound card. (Circular Buffers?))

    How can I play a continuous, repeating waveform using SO VI's (that isn't choppy)? I gather that I need to buffer the waveform, and I see examples using AO VI's, but how do you buffer using SO Write? What are Circular Buffers and might I use this technique to solve my problem?

    I've tried to do the same, i.e. synthesize a wave for continuous,
    non-choppy output, and have some un-solved problems.
    A buffer is sent to SO Write, which is then transfered to the device
    driver and the sound output hardware. The problem is how to refill the
    buffer that is sent SO Write, before the internal buffers of SO Write
    and/or the device driver or hardware empties their buffer, which would
    result in silence. We need a warning that the buff
    er is almost empty,
    so that more samples can be constructed. I've found no way to do that
    using LabView 5.1.
    However, we now how fast samples are consumed, so they can be produced
    at the same rate, or perhaps a little faster. If they are produced
    much faster, the memory will fill up, but if the difference is small,
    the program can run for quite a while. It was a year ago, or so, that
    I did this, so I don't remember the details.
    A circular buffer can be used in a multi-thread producer-consumer
    program. I've done it in C and C++, from some tutorial I found on
    threads, or maybe it was from the OSS (open sound system) for
    Linux. It is a buffer with a write position and a read position. The
    addresses wraps around, so it works a bit like a conveyor belt. The
    writer must check that the buffer is non-full, and the reader that it
    is non-empty. I'm not sure how to implement it i LabView, or if it's needed.

  • No sound using stereo mixer with speaker balance s...

    No sound using stereo mixer with speaker balance set between approx 95-100% of max to the right
    Setup: good quality functional soundcard, fine when audio not routed via Skype, mixer enabled, Skype mic / audio auto disabled, issue present when tested using a variety of different systems, latest version of Skype was used on all machines being tested
    Issue: When the speaker balance is set approx 95% to 100% to the right speaker channel using the Windows audio control no sound is generated. The issue is absent when audio is not routed via Skype. This would seem to be a Skype bug and would like to report the issue as a bug. Has anyone else encoutered this issue? Is there a resolution?

    Yes, I restarted my computer yesterday and this morning all my sounds is controlled by the left/right blance percentage. 

  • Stereo sound from all speake

    Hii, I have a X-Fi Xtreme music and a 5. speaker setup, can someone tell me how can I get stereo sound from all of my speakers? thanks in advance.

    Hmmm, I don't have an X-Fi, but to answer your question the first thing someone needs to know is how you have your speakers connected. If, for example, you're running throgh a receiver you need to separately output each channel (using 3.5mm mini plug to RCA cables/converters you would buy at Radio Shack) to the external decoder of your receiver. Of course, in that insance, you would output the DD source stream from the optical out of the card through the optical in of the receiver; stereo playback would be from a 2. signal. I run both configs on mine. Now, if you're running computer speakers already plugged into the correct outputs of the sound card that's a different question, and it's one I can only relate from my experience with the Audigy 2 software.

  • Ipod doesn't produce stereo sound from iphone built-in speakers?

    I've had my iphone for some time now, but just noticed that when playing music from the ipod built-in to the iphone, the music is only coming from one speaker (the one on the bottom left).
    Is that normal? I would assume both speakers would be used?
    I checked the settings and couldn't find a setting for "stereo sound" and did a forum search and couldn't find an answer.

    fair enough i didn't think i had posted it in the right forum, so i posted it in the ipod/audio one as well....
    anyway, thanks for the answer.

  • Upconverting Stereo sound to Surround 5.1 or higher?

    Does something of the sort exist for linux? I'm just having a hard time living without the "CMSS-3D" feature of the windows soundblaster drivers. They also have an alternative called DTS:Connect which includes DTS:Neo PC (which i could use) and DTS:Interactive, is there any way to utilize those functions of my card?
    Creative's Crystalizer and Sound Volume Management i can live without in fact i can live without everything except equalizer and Stereo to Surround conversion, it's the latter i'm having a hard time finding on linux, do you know any solution to this problem?

    That's one useful sig you've got there , Thanks!
    Right now i'm just focusing on converting stereo sound into 5.1, i'll need to play a bit with the config file (since i have very rarely configured it) to test that function though so i don't know yet if i need any additional effects or distortion, but it would be nice to know about which ones are available, i quite like tweaking my sound to perfection, thats why i even have a soundblaster card to begin with.
    Quoting Wikipedia on an effect that i do like to use (Crystalizer, but as i said before i don't think it's something really important to me)
    Creative Labs states that the primary function of the Crystalizer is to "restore portions of the sound which were lost during compression". The "compression" that is meant here is not the digital file-size reduction achieved by digital audio data compression technologies like for example mp3. Rather, the idea is to reverse the effects of dynamic range compression, an analog technique that was and is used during the production of most 1990s and newer Audio CDs (with the exception of some classical music recordings) to make them sound louder at the same volume level setting, as it was found that subjectively louder CDs get more airplay and sell better. To achieve this loudness without introducing strong distortion, points in the signal where the volume reaches a maximum are compressed (which means in this case: reduced in volume), then the whole signal is multiplied by a factor so that the maximum volume is reached again. After this, the music as a whole is louder than it was before, but the maximum volume points (mostly transients) are not as pronounced as they were before. Since this whole process is done before the final Audio CD is recorded, its effect is equally present in uncompressed audio files created from such a CD, in lossless compressed audio made from the CD, as well as in lossy compressed audio from that same CD. Transients are typically found in percussive sounds, in plosive consonants of voice recordings, and during the first few milliseconds (the so called attack phase) of non-percussive instrument sounds. All these tend to be somewhat muffled by dynamic range compression.
    To undo this effect, the Crystalizer uses a multiband compander (compressor/expander) with dynamically adjusted compression/expansion. Its main function is to detect transients and to increase their relative volume level. As a consequence of enabling the Crystalizer, the signal is altered, and whether the result improves upon the input audio is purely a matter of perception and can depend on the type of audio being played.

  • HT4589 How do I change the audio to dual mono from stereo when using Share to DVD in Final Cut 10.1?

    How do I switch the audio to Dual Mono from Stereo when using Share in Final Cut Pro 10.1? Even though the audio is all in dual mono in the timeline, it lists it as stereo in the share box.

    Hi rationale1,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The share to DVD settings in Final Cut Pro X use the Dolby Digital settings which are stereo for DVDs. So this can’t be done directly in Final Cut Pro X.
    The link below will explain the Dolby Digital parameters and options in Compressor 4.   You may need to research a different DVD authoring software to achieve your desired result.
    Dolby Digital - Compressor 4 User Manual
    http://help.apple.com/compressor/mac/4.1/#cpsrb71736a2
    Dolby Digital
    The built-in Dolby Digital settings (in the Create Blu-ray and Create DVD destinations, as well as the built-in AC-3 and EC-3 audio settings) use the Dolby Digital transcoding format. This format encodes Dolby Digital (AC-3) and Dolby Digital Plus (EC-3) audio files that contain multiple audio channels, including 5.1 surround sound. You can also create custom settings that use the Dolby Digital transcoding format. 
    Note:  All files intended for video and audio DVD authoring must have a 48 kHz sample rate as required by the DVD specification.
    DVD Video: Choose this option if you’re encoding for use in a DVD video authoring application.
    DVD Audio: Choose this option if you’re encoding for use in a DVD audio authoring application.
    Tip:  For stereo encoding, rates of 192 kbps and 224 kbps are typical and will produce good results. For Dolby Digital 5.1 encoding, a rate of 384 kbps is recommended. For 5.1 Dolby Digital Plus encoding, a rate of 192 kbps is recommended.
    Cheers,
    Judy

  • Left and right channels of stereo sound coming only from left spea

    The title says it all. I can't figure out what's wrong. I checked all the settings I can think of, but nothing seems out of place. It's not the right channel cutting out, but both channels coming from the left speaker (I used the speaker test feature to confirm this). This just happened out of nowhere when I booted up my pc. Any idea what's wrong?
    *Oh, and this is an Audigy 2 (plain version).Message Edited by Geise on 2-3-2005 : PM

    Did you ever fix this problem? I have the exact same thing happening to my sound.
    All the sound comes from the left in stereo sound. I plugged the green stereo analog speakers into the other pin the blackone for 4. setting on my SBLi've24 allthe others play fron t left back left and back right but the front right is so soft like a whisper.
    So the speakers work. Im running a Xp mediaedition system. It happened after an apparent sound conflict that made an electronic popping sound which got progressi'vely worse until i figured out how to reset the car d in the Bios level. I have done evrything but reformat the hard dri've All tests say the hardware is working but still no front right channel. Help please

    guys after a long time...i finally shifted to mac ...a long time windows user...so far the experience is been good..
    ok here is my first problem with this setup
    in india its a pain to get a toslink to mini adapter ...finally i found one and connected the mini end to headphone jack behind my imac...
    (imac 21.5 mid june 2011) and optical end to my hometheatre ...
    in audio midi setup the multichannel option is set to stereo 2ch 16 bit..
    perian is installed and set to use dolby prologic..
    i only get stereo sound from itunes,vlc or movist or even xbmc and boxee...tried them all configured the audio to use 5.1 but no luck,
    questions
    why is 5.1 greyed out ?in audio midi setup ?
    i am using my mac to create multimedia content and knowing how the sounds created will be heard helps me a lot..
    i have invested a lot (3 years savings in this mac) and i wouyld very much appreciate all your help..
    i also purchased a griffin hdmi port which connects to my tv but the audio is still stereo..
    finally got a toslink http://www.amazon.com/3-5MM-TOSLINK-FIBER-OPTIC-TOSLINK-mini-Toslink/dp/B00006LV F3 this one ...still only stereo...
    any help would be greatly appreciated .....

    Hello John, I figured it was a signal issue. All the speakers fire and the sound is great. I was running the speakers thru a Dell PC with a Creative X-Fi Elite Pro, THX Certified, 7.1 soundcard using a fiber optic from the Mac Pro to the Z906's, it worked great until the Dell died!!! When I bought the soundcard from Creative I also bought the GigaWorks S750, THX Certified, 700 watt, 7.1 speaker system, used the speakers for 11 years and then the woofer/amp said "I QUIT" Creative quit making the speaker system and the sound card. The satellite speakers from the Creative GigaWorks speaker system still sound great (rated at 78 watt each) and are a little better speaker than the one's that came with the Z906 and the wattage from the 906 is sufficient to drive the satellites without any distortion. Thank you for addressing my issue, you confirmed what I suspected all along, just needed to hear it from someone with the same setup.
    One last question, I purchased a Diamond Multimedia USB Soundcard, can't use the fiber optic(not supported by Mac) but the green, tan and black RCA's plug in and produces adequetly. When you plug your 906's into the Mac Pro using the fiber optic how do you set your speaker configuration? When I plug into the mac pro with fiber optic the 'Audio Midi Setup' does not seem to see the 5.1 configuration. Any thoughts there?

  • Audio - recording high quality stereo sound with iPhone 3Gs

    There are a number of excellent sound recording apps now available for iPhone - notably RecTools 08 (8 track, PCM) but no way to get stereo sound into the device. To date both Belkin and Griffin state their stereo microphones (designed for iPod) will not work with iPhone because Apple has not enabled audio input via the dock connector.
    to the community:
    • Has anyone found a method of getting high quality stereo sound INTO the iPhone?

  • Remove Stereo Sound

    I am editing a short film and the "audio guy" turned the recording levels down so low that now that I have increased the audio levels and added gain to get a normal conversation level there is a stereo sound. any suggestions!?

    Alright sorry i was ****** at the moment when writing that post. Okay now that everyone has made a joke out of my post.. I will humble myself and say sorry for the confusion and poor attitude.
    Geez this is like turning into a drama series maybe Shane Ross could be the editor for this drama series.
    Anyway apologies apologies..
    SO, what I was trying to say was,
    The director payed someone to do sound for us 75.00 a day for a 4 days and what happened was the sound guy had set the levels on his mixer at such a low level that once I pulled the sound into post I had to turn the levels to 12 and then add gain to 15.. Now if you can imagine this created noise to the sound clips. How do I describe that noise? I described it as a stereo sound. God forbid, I have absolutely no knowledge in the audio side of things.. What other word could I use.. Feedback sound? umm I am not sure either way you can imagine if you took a clip that was recorded at such a low level and cranked it up your audio would sound like TRASH!
    So my question was if anyone had any suggestions for eliminating that almost static sound from the tracks. Low Pass Filter? I tried compressing it in SoundTrackPro but as you can imagine it gave it that compressed almost robotic sound.
    Okay well hope that clears some stuff up ladies and gentlemen..
