Help! I'm getting echoes, stutters and skips when recording wave

Posted by Jim on Mon, 11/01/1999 - 03:10.

I am running an AMD board and 486 enhanced 160 mHz,
32 megs RAM, and SoundBlaster 32 with memory upgrade.

When I copy long audio extractions from my old record
collection onto my hard drive, I get lots of skips,
echoes and stutters.

Do I need a faster machine or what?

Thanks,

Jim.

you really need pentium class machine 100 or better.

the only way you could possibly eliminate the problem on your machine is to make the tracks half stereo (22050 mhz) but you will lose sound quality. better of upgrading your machine.

o.k.

The number one cause of pops, etc., is TSR and other crap running in the background, and moving the mouse. Use CONTROL>ALT>DEL To shut down EVERYTHING except explorer, sys tray, and your wave/mp3 program. When recording begins, DO NOT MOVE THE MOUSE! If you are on a lan, shut it down, too.

soundforge, wavelab, cubase, logic

Posted by sniffa on Mon, 11/01/1999 - 07:27.

soundforge and wavelab are sample-editors with
midi-support.
cubase and logic are midi-sequencers with audio-
and recording-options.

if you need some more specific info let me know..

Sound Forge, Great program but I am still using an external cdr recorder rather then my my computer. How do you sepearte tracks after you have recorded a wave. I mix house cds that are around 72 minutes long, but to listen to them you have to always start from the beginning. Toss me a bone here.

Unfortunately, I’ve got about 40 hours of working with this software and my report isn’t quite so positive. The amount of time processing the data is unbelievably slow, especially when the product isn’t quite what you were hoping for, e.g. peaking which produces loud snaps and pops. I’m using a RAID-0 volume with an 850 ThunderBird processor with 128 megs or RAM. Overall, I’m finding that this software (in some ways) seriously degrades my critical and valuable wave files, actually generating undesirable results that didn’t exist on the original files. Good luck!

midi to audio

Posted by Kerkko on Sun, 10/31/1999 - 12:58.

I want to extract midi loop/file to audio file in Cubase VST. I´ve tried many times and haven´t succeeded. Can anyone help me?

Re: midi to audio

Posted by sniffa on Mon, 11/01/1999 - 07:39.

normally it should work when you just select an
audio-track and press the record-button. cubase
asks for a wave-filename and starts recording.
the only problem could be to record midi AND
audio-tracks at once. then your soundcard must
support a record-while-play option.

recording audio from sourcws

Posted by mark on Sun, 10/31/1999 - 02:16.

How do I record sounds from phono outs/ins which would connect to my stereo (For taped music to be put onto my harddrive for later manipulation) or turntables and into my soundcard (AWE 64) - I know I'll need a software sampler, but what leads are necessary?

Could I use the wave recorder I got with the AWE 64 to do this?

Re: recording audio from sourcws

Posted by nightfishing on Sun, 10/31/1999 - 05:08.

To record tape or cd, you'll need an adapter to convert the r/l RCAs to a stereo 1/8 mini. RadioShack will have one.

For a turntable, it's a bit trickier, a TT needs a preamp (w/ground). You can run it thru your Stereo and then run the tape outs to your sc, but depending on the quality of your stereo, results will differ.

You can purchase a phono preamp or an external mixer with the same and use it between the source and the sc.

Or you can record the vinyl to cassette tape, first, and follow the tip on connecting a tape deck.

With an inexpensive SC and non-professional mastering S/W, this may be your best option, the quality will be reduced, but, depending on your setup, you may not be able to hear the difference.

For high quality applications, I would suggest an external mixer.

How to record a 2 hour WAV file

How do you record a WAV file longer than 7 minutes at 44.1Khz 16bit mono? I can't record past 35 Mb or 7 minutes. I'm using soundmix 2.0. Windows 98 soundrecorder also has a problem with time limits. Anyone know of some free software that will record up to 2 hours of input into 1 WAV file?
