Why does my mp3 exported from garageband sound hollow and tinny when played through other speakers?

The recording sounds great through headphones from the mac and headphones from my phone but listen to it through speakers from my phone and it sounds hollow and tinny. I've made other recordings that sound full and rich. Any ideas?

fbuerg,
You are welcome. Glad my good fortune was helpful to you.

  • Why does my php export feature work in IE and not firefox?

    Why does my php export feature work in IE and not Firefox? I've written a web application which contains a SigmaGrid. The grid controls reload, add update delete, print and export to csv all work in IE8. The export feature does not work in Firefox.

    I'm not sure what's going on for you. I've had 4 other developers - two on Comcast and two on Fios review my work and they get the control and export action in the IE8 version but not the FF10 version.
    Thanks for looking into this for me, though. I appreciate the effort. '' The operation was a success doctor, but the patient died.''

  • Audio sounds hollow and tinny all of a sudden in iTunes

    Hi everyone -
    I'm having an audio issue when playing files in iTunes. I'm using iTunes 8.1.1 (10) on a Dual 2.7 Ghz PowerPC G5 running OS X Version 10.4.11.
    Recently I discovered that all of my audio files (music and spoken word podcasts) started sounding hollow and tinny, both when I'm playing the files out of my speakers (Harman Kardon Soundsticks) or headphones (Sony MDR-7606).
    At first I thought it was perhaps an equalizer issue, but the audio sounds hollow and tinny whether or not that function is enabled. Also, using Sound Enhancer in the iTunes preferences doesn't change the quality of the audio, either. I don't use Sound Check.
    The majority of my audio files are ripped from my CD collection using 256 kbps, 44.100 kHz, VBR, optimized for Velocity Engine.
    I don't think it's an issue with the files themselves - they sound normal when I play them using the same version of iTunes on my MacBook Pro running OS X 10.5.6, which makes me think it's a software issue with iTunes, but I'm totally at a loss as to what would cause this change in audio quality.
    Thanks,
    Dan

    I tried playing some of my files in Quicktime, and they also sound tinny, so I think you're right - sounds like a computer issue. Everything sounds like it has heavy compression, even in my headphones - very odd.
    Should I repost this issue in a different forum...?

  • I subscibed to ITunes Match and all my music has disappeared from my Ipod touch and will only play through WiFi so I cannot play music in my car. How do I get it back please

    You'll need to switch off iTunes Match on the device & sync the iPod with iTunes as hopefully you've kept all your music on your PC.

  • Itunes wont play my new mp3 exported from Garageband?

    I export my original songs from Garageband 09 in mp3 format and add them to a playlist in itunes. Sometimes Ill make some changes to a song in Garageband and then export and replace the original exported mp3 with the same file name. The preview in Finder plays the new version but when I double click it or open it with itunes it plays the old one? Even when I delete the old one from the playlist and import the new file? Weird!

    I have a similar problem .. when I import a movie, modify the audio track add sounds and music ect... export to iTunes only the original movie audio comes thru. When I check the file in the iTunes movie folder it has the Garageband sounds as I modified it. Opening the movie in Quicktime it plays the total Garageband mix. I suspect a glitch in iTunes.

  • Why does stereo QT export from Adobe turn to mono

    As Adobe well knows, there is an issue with QT files exported from Premiere and AE. Certain software-including but not limited to FCP 7- sees it as 2 mono channels and pans to the center. Oops- no stereo. Does anyone have a solution? Other than reoutputting from FCP to create a real stereo file. Adobe-I AM CALLING YOU OUT!!!

    If you are exporting a QuickTime Movie (not QuickTime Conversion) FCP simply copies the media (original clips or renders) in the case of a self contained export, or pointers to them in the case of a non-self contained (or reference) export.
    If you haven't rendered, a render is performed and this is copied into the QT file. So you end up doing the render, but in the end, your timeline is unrendered, so you go thru the effort, but you only have the QT to show for it. In the case of an export of an unrendered timeline into a reference movie, the renders get placed in the QT movie file since they exist no where else...
    Does this answer your questions?
    Oh, one more thing - if you are exporting to a format that supports alpha channels (most likely Animation - in which case you are probably using QuickTime Conversion), the alpha channel is only filled properly if you export an unrendered timeline because the alpha is not stored after you render your timeline.

  • Why does my iMac now ask for my login and password when trying to drag anything to the trash?

    Hello,
    I have the new iMac and am now having issues trying to delete anything off my desktop. It is telling me that Finder wants to make changes when I try to drag anything to the trash. I have to constantly resubmit my login and password and then the item just disappears, does not remain in the trash to be emptied later.
    I am not sure what happened because it never acted like this. All of my software updates are current and I don't get why my Trash is no longer working as it used to.
    Any advice?
    Thanks!

    1. Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/.Trash
    2. Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Show Info
    from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
    3. The dialog should show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section. If that's not what it shows, click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and enter your password when prompted. Use the plus- and minus-sign buttons to give yourself Read & Write access and "everyone" No Access. Delete any other entries in the access list.
    4. In the General section, uncheck the box marked Locked if it's checked.
    5. From the action menu (gear icon) at the bottom of the dialog, select Apply to enclosed items and confirm.
    6. Close the Info window and test.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.

  • Music alarm sounds hollow and tinny

    Hi. I have an Ipod touch 5, and I am using the iOS's built in alarm feature for music alarms. The alarm works fine, but my music sounds way different than it does when played from the music player, very tinny and hollow, like it is put through some type of filter. Is there any way to make the music sound normal when using the alarm? I have yet to find an app that will allow me to create music alarms that go off even when in the background (they all have to be running in the foreground to play music), but an app that plays music normally, and will go off even when in the background, would be an alternative. Thanks.

    I tried playing some of my files in Quicktime, and they also sound tinny, so I think you're right - sounds like a computer issue. Everything sounds like it has heavy compression, even in my headphones - very odd.

  • Why does Magic Bullet looks crash my After Effects and computer when I open it?

    I don't really know how else to explain. I've tried re-installing both. I don't know what else to do. I'm on After Effects CS5.

    Just updated my display drivers.
    Then un-update them. MBL is, after all, driven by OpenGL and may frown on the slightest variation there. Also inquire with Red Giant Software what driver versions they support.

  • Why does my ipad1 keep closing out of games and Facebook before I want too?

    Why does my ipad1 keep closing out of games and Facebook when I am looking at still playing or checking comments on Facebook? This has been happening more and more frequently.

    Try reseting the iPad (different from restarting). Hold down on both the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds (ignore the red slider button). Keep holding both buttons until the Apple Logo appears. When you see the Apple logo on the black screen, let go of both buttons. Once it powers back up, try your games and Facebook. This "reset" fixes a lot of weird iPad issues.
    Hope this answers your question!

  • Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File - Export - Album name with number).

    Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File -> Export -> Album name with number).
    Exporting a single Event retains the Event name which is what I'd expect. But highlighting more than one event and exporting it renames the images to Events 001.JPG, Event 002.JPG etc.
    I was recently on holidays and had all my events nicely split on Dad's computer but when I went to export it I couldn't retain any of this information. Now I have to replicate this all again on my computer.
    It wasn't possible to export the entire library as the external drive was fat32 format an I didn't want all of it. It would be nice to export a bunch of events to someone and have it retain the name.
    Does anyone have a work around or will this be fixed at some point by Apple?

  • Why does an email sent from an iPad or iPhone to ms outlook appear with attachments? Example signatures tend to be broken down into a series of unwanted attachments!

    Why does an email sent from an iPad or iPhone to ms outlook appear with attachments? Example: signatures at the bottom of the mail tend to be broken down into a series of unwanted attachments!

    It worked for me. I took a picture with the iPhone's camera. Then opened the Photos app and selected the picture, and emailed it from one of my IMAP accounts to my gmail (also IMAP) account. When it showed up in the gmail inbox (on my iPhone), I forwarded it to my yahoo mail account (choosing the "inlcude attachments" option). When that showed up on my iPhone's yahoo inbox, the picture was there just as it should be.
    So I guess the next thing would be to try it with non-iPhone pictures to see if it is a problem with image size or something. I have some 6-megapixel images in iPhoto I can try (taken as RAW/DEC format pictures with my dSLR).
    Just tried it sending a Photo from my computer's iPhoto library - picture is 728KB, 2272x1704 jpeg. I emailed it to my gmail account, and it showed up on the iPhone just fine. Then I forwarded that to my yahoo account and again, it showed up just fine on both the iPhone and reading my yahoo mail via the web page.
    Don't know what to say - I don't mean this to be just another "works for me" post. I was hoping to see something maybe depending on the size and origin of the picture.
    By the way, my 3GS shipped with 3.0.1 on it, and I've updated it via iTunes normally to 3.1.1 and currently 3.1.2. Sorry I don't have anything constructive to add.

    Agreed.  Even the iPhone has multiple built-in keyboards to choose from.
