Why do I hear an echo when I record my voice?

I just set up Logic Pro, and I can hear my voice. However, I hear an echo through the headphones coming from the MBox interface. There is probably a simple explination, or setting to adjust, but for the life of me I can't find it. Anyone have any suggestions?

I can set it down to 32, and the latency is less, but still very detectable. I record audiobooks, and I really need to hear what I'm sounding like. Am I just out of luck, using the Avid MBox? Is it just not robust enough to work with Logic Pro for some reason?
Normally, 32 would be undetectable as that's very low latency, are you using any plugins at this time? If so, what ones?

When I call other cell phones, the recipient hears an echo of his/her own voice. What causes this?

When I call other cell phones or receive calls from other cell phones, the other party hears an echo of his/her own voice. I do not hear the echo. Is there something wrong with my iPhone 4S?

Which auto tune plugin are you using and without wishing to sound rude.. But do you know how to use it correctly?
What you are describing sounds like improper use of an auto tune plugin to me.... Time for you to check out any tutorials on YouTube for your plugin....

Does the mic work for other apps like Voice Control?
Does the mic work OK in other devices?
Have you tried it with another mic?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Why is the file so large when I record from the microphone?

I am trying to write a program that will save incoming and outgoing voicestreams while playing them. I have been successful thus far but when I record the voice from the speaker(microphone) the file size is in the Megabyte size within a few seconds of recording! The incoming stream is more acceptable in size. I checked the files the incoming stream is 128kbps while the microphone recording is 1411kbps. I tried setting the restriction on the devicelist but that didnt work.. any ideas?

I am trying to record the outgoing voice stream when i speak into microphone to another person. I used mostly the AVTransmit 2 code to do that. The thing is i get "no processor exception" when I try to clone the data that i get from processor.getOutput. But if i were to clone the dataSource that is directly from the microphone before being processed then it works but with a much larger file size at 1120kbps. The thing is I am processing the cloneableDataSource so i am not sure what went wrong

How can I hear the effects when not recording?

There are a lot of effects in LE8 and they're actually quite good. I use them frequently when recording guitar, but the only problem is that I can hear them ONLY when I'm recording. For example, when I'm not recording, I add effects like 'stereo delay' and 'chorus' but can't hear them until I hit the record button and actually start recording. I would say it's possible to hear them 'in effect' when I'm just playing, not necessarily when I'm recording...anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!

Aaahhh and anotherone:
Check if you have - by accident - activated the "Low Latency Mode". In this mode, Logic turns off some Plugins to achieve minimum latency.
If you want to use Plugins "live", then turn off each and every plugin you don't need. Turn off all tracks you don't need. Work only with the one Audio Track where you put the plugins you like. And use "Live Mode" in the Audio Setup - maye this should be a last hint.

Why do i hear a siren when i start firefox

every time i start firefox i hear a siren that sounds like pacman is playing ,what is this
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== may 21rst 2010

I'm not sure if I should ask here or start a new topic? I recently updated to Firefox 4.0, and I just today noticed a very quiet, high-pitched sound that I thought was my hard drive. Until I remembered I have a SSD. When I closed FF, it immediately went away. I opened IE, no sound. FF--sound. It's just loud enough to be REALLY annoying. I looked at my add-ons and extensions, most of which are disabled due to incompatibility with FF 4. I don't have that Cool Preview or coliris mentioned here. I didn't click anything--it just showed up when I opened up the browser (homepage is yahoo). It might have been there before, and I didn't notice it w/TV on in background b/c it's pretty quiet, but now I'm trying to study , and it's driving me nuts-o. Any help is appreciated.
I wouldn't describe it as a siren, exactly (it's not loud, it doesn't sound like an ACTUAL siren one would hear). It's more just a mechanical, high-pitched kind of buzz that stops as soon as I close FF and starts as soon as I open it. I'm running W7 Pro.
Thanks!!!!!

I hear an echo when i play some mp3's :( Leaving soon need help.....

I've got a 60 gig pod and i filled up about 45 gigs, tommorrow i'm going on a year trip to South America and while i was listening to some songs today i heard an echo in the background (only with mp3's).
If anyone knows anything about this problem please help me out cos i want to get this thing working by the time i leave.
Thanks in advance

For both my problems i tried with different headphones and on itunes i hear the songs without an echo.
I also chaget the EQ settings in the ipod menu and still heard the echo.
I also found that i don't hear it on songs that i burned straight from a cd just some mp3's.
It's unbearable...
I also tried reseting my ipod but nothing.

Why do i hear no sound when playing songs with headphones and without?

all of a sudden i can't hear any song i play, using the headphones and not using the headphones. I've done the hard reboot three times, turned on and off my itunes icloud, then back on. Still no sound when playing music.
Any solution?

i wish it were that simple (mute button)
Everyone I work with is having the same problem, presently Apple's Music Match is not working.
I certainly hope they will be able to fix this as soon as possible.

Anyone else hear an echo?

Are you hearing an echo when you talk in the iPhone? I know some people have posted issues with an echo during the use of bluetooth, however, my echo is simply heard when I am speaking to a caller using the regular iPhone microphone.
If you have had this issue, have you found any solutions?
Thank you in advance,
Scott

IF this occurs on every single call it is a phone problem.
If this occurs every now and then, welcome to the world of GSM -- that happens with GSM phone signals at times, both with ATT and T-Mobile. The other end doesn't hear the echo, only you hear your own voice echoing back.
My neighborhood has apparently upgraded their towers since I don't get that anymore, but it kicks in bigtime when I am in different cities for occasional calls.

Online conference participants hear echo when cinema display is connected via mini-displayport, even though I am using headphones with mic.

When I use Google Hangout or GoToMeeting, other participants in the meeting hear an echo of their sound -- loud and obtrusive. When I mute, it goes away.
This only happens when I am using my Apple Cinema Display 27" (recent vintage) connected via the mini-displayport (natively, not an adapter).
On my end, i don't hear their echo, but I do hear waves of squelching -- basically it sounds like their end is trying to adjust their input down to account for what it thinks I saying, even though I'm not talking, it's just the echo making that happen.
Sometimes this doesn't occur -- it seems to crop up intermittently, but happens around 75% of the time at some point in a conversation.
I am using iPhone-compatible in-ear earphones with built-in mic; the earphones are the rubber seal type, so there's no sound escaping them that the system should even be able to hear.
I have my audio set up for "Headphones" as output device.
Input device is set up as "External Microphone" -- this part confuses me because even though I know my Cinema Display has a microphone, the OS seems not to list it as a separate input device. So I wonder if it's getting confused trying to use both the cinema display's mic *and* the earphone mic? (see dropdown image)
OS version 10.20.2; Macbook Air 13 inch, "early 2014" and Apple LED Cinema Display 27inch
Earphones are skull-candy brand iPhone compatible (with built-in mic), plugged into the macbook air's earphone jack. (without the display connected, this has always worked fine -- and with a prior non-apple display that had no mic/camera this was not a problem)
This is an ongoing issue in our office, in fact ... especially troublesome in client meetings.
I haven't tried other configurations, other than when using the Cinema Display's USB connector, the same thing happens.
It also happens even when I'm not using the "USB PnP Sound Device" you see listed in the dropdown here -- that's something I use for controlling music output to my desk speakers.
A general question: is there no way to control the cinema display's mic and/or camera more directly?
(EDITED TO ADD: Ok I see in the Cinema Display manual, there should be a listing for "Display Audio" in the input list, but my SysPref panel has none listed. See other screenshot. I wonder if this is the problem??)

Curious, is the 30-inch Cinema Display you have, one listed in this Support Article:
•Apple Cinema Display (20-, 23-, and 30-inch DVI) - Technical Specifications
or is yours a later build series; which one do you have...? This says Mini unsupported.
The specifications vary across the line of Displays, as do the graphic support in Macs.
I'd suspect your version is a later 30-inch display, but it may be one of these. And a
newer 27-inch Display has the Thunderbolt cable.
In any event...
Good luck & happy computing!

Any idea why I can only hear a caller when I'm using speaker phone?

Does anyone know why I can only hear a caller when I am using speaker phone?

Hi goodferg,
The troubleshooting steps below may help you with the sound issue you are having with your iPhone 4:
iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
Resolution
Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (chooseSettings > General > Bluetooth).
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
Hope this helps!

When making calls why they cant hear me but i can hear them?

When making calls why they cant hear me but i can hear them?

good question. try to record a voice memo on your phone. if you can't hear yourself, it means likely that your mic isn't working, which would explain why no one can hear you on the phone

I hear an echo on my end when I speak.

I hear an echo on my end when I speak. The other person does not hear it.
This only happens in my apartment.

I've heard an echo every once in a while as well. I don't think there's anything you can do. Did you have a question or was it implied?
