Great news - I can't wait - any hints as to when?

That's a pretty song, although a bit repetitive - of course I like the piano sound - it's quite good. I'd like to have the music for the piano score. It sounds to me as though this is a music background track for a thunder storm, and the thunder sound is intentional. There is also some static and so...

Pooledad: I'm sorry to hear your problem - once we lose a loved one, our options are gone. I never recorded my mother playing Chopin's Fantasie Impromptu, and she's with your Aunty (by the way, my Mom was a really good pianist - perhaps they will meet and get together). I doubt that even if you spen...

I believe the simple answer is YES, but in reality the process known as MIXING requires separate control over each and every individual track, which can't be done in GW. However, the sister progam to GW is called Multiquence, and it works quite nicely (albeit only with 16 bit files as far as I know)...

The next major version of Multiquence will support multichannel sound cards and will record more than two channels on a single multichannel card. Chris Will the next major version of Multiquence utilize higher bit rates etc? I am using Goldwave to record at 24 bit 48 kbps, and would like to do my m...

Topic: why are my files so big?
Replies: 9
Views: 13787

The size of audio files is governed by the following: 1. Length of file - time for file to play (assuming music). For wave files, it is approximately 11.0 MB per minute of song. 2. Type of file: Wave files are the largest; mp3 files and other types of compressed files vary depending upon the amount ...

Doug's first sentence said it all. I'll offer an analogy: Suppose you buy a pair of pants, and think they're too long. So you cut of twelve inches, only to discover that they weren't too long after all. The problem is that in the meantime, you've burned the cut-offs. Even if you had the pieces you c...

Is there an easy way to remove the clipping? I've tried running a "use average" noise reduction and then a pop/click removal with low tolerance after that, but still can't get the clipping noises to go away. In a word, the answer is NO. The problem with an "average" noise reduct...

Rupert et al: Is the cut-off time exactly five minutes, or does it vary? A shortage of memory wouldn't seem to be the cause if the length is always right on five minutes would it? How much RAM do you have (Rupert)? One of the things I like about GW is the ability to record to RAM, thereby not having...

I believe that looping is commonly done in software that is called a "sampler", such as Halion, Kontakt, Emulator X, etc.

Doug: Good point about "on hold" music (which I find annoying personally). If one wants their music to "cut through" everything (noise in a bar or restaruant), then more compression can be appropriate. These days, commercial tracks use heavy compression and limiting and then the ...

Chris:


That did the trick. file SAVEd AS using (obsolete) PCM signed, 24-bit stereo can be imported into PTPA.

Thank you - I don't know why I missed saving usingt that option.

Now, the question is, why can't it import PCM signed 24-bit or 16-bit?

Togglehead: Blandine's recommendations are good. Compression has to be handled carefully - I've seen songs that had the life squeezed out of the dynamics by applying too much. You might try Reduce Peaks under the Compression setting - if you just have a few high volume dynamics this may work. It wil...

Kara: I've been doing this in Goldwave for as long as I've had it - several years. I believe it might require a full duplex soundcard though - not sure. Go into CONTROL PANEL | SOUND AND AUDIO DEVICES | AUDIO TAB, and check the Volume Tabs on your "Sound playback" and "Sound recording...
