bored and down with the flu
|
| |
Hi Guys, building a new DAW currently, found this comparison of two different takes with an artist that may sound familiar to those in the know. One take is from a CD-reissue and the other is from a cracked (from rim to centerhole) 78 rpm record. Go to: [link]... more »

Melodyne DNA prompts me to ask.....
|
| |
I read the recent info on Melodyne DNA and decided to try it out. I was amazed like the other OP by what it can do, but I am wondering about something. In one of its modes, called the Note Assignment Tool, Melodyne replaces all of the original wav with it's own synth interpretation. Even though it sounds pretty cheesy (which is after all expected since this isn't... more »

Tape Hiss removal
|
| |
I was given a tape to convert to CD. My player is a Pioneer CT-W205R set to dolby B. The software I originally used is Total Recorder, but I also have Audacity. The tape is a Magnetics. Any hints on removing or at least reducing the tape hiss, any addins for Audacity that could help? The tape level is a little low, record level was at max and nowhere near clipping on... more »

Headphone: Impedance Over Frequency
|
| |
I was looking at a site that allowed me to view graphs of frequency response, noise isolation, and other measures of headphones that are not typically found in a big-box type electronics store. One of the measures is impedance over frequency. The particular headphone I was looking at - MINE! - had the same impedance(mid30s... more »

Real World Significant Sources of (what we usually call) Latency
|
| |
I'm way behind on my practical computer experience, but I'm trying to gather some usable data on just what affects latency in a digital audio path significantly, and what affects it theoretically (everything does, I know) but by an insignificant amount relative to the total delay time. Why am I asking? Well, I've been dispensing advice about this, it seems,... more »

mobile phone interference on recordings
|
| |
I made a live recording last week that was blighted by interference from what sounds like a mobile phone. I've never had this problem before and was wondering where the most likely cause of the problem was (after the phone itself obviously). Are certain types of microphone more likely to be susceptible to this kind of interference,... more »

software for a specific purpose?
|
| |
Hello, I know this can be done through various software, but I'm not sure which. I have Melodyne Studio and a few others, so maybe what I'm looking for can be done. I want to I guess take the arrangement from one song and apply it to another. I'm not sure if this is coming across, so I'll give an example.... more »

MCA SP-1 sale
|
| |
A while back someone was lamenting that the MCA SP-1 microphone had increased in price from $40 to $50. (A steal at that price, even so.) So I thought I would mention that PSSL has a special on them right now for $39.99. Here's a link: [link]... more »

Telephone hybrid - which to get?
|
| |
Hi guys, I'm in the UK and I want a really good system for coaching people over the telephone. Best sound possible so I can pick up emotions behind words etc. Right now I have a binaural headset which is OK but I'm wondering what would be better than that - maybe a telephone hybrid so I could have a mini-studio setup. I can build amps etc. but my... more »

What does a linear phase eq do that others don't?
|
| |
Apparently a linear phase eq is considered an essential tool, apparently Soundforge 5 doesn't have one - it has graphic, paragraphic and parametric. And to be honest I'm not altogether clear as to why these are different from each other either. The paragraphic seems like 4 parametrics bundled together, but I assume it's more than that.... more »
