Hi, folks, I've never had any major problem before with my recordings, but lately when I record something and play it back, I get a heavy static/noise. (Though not always, and sometimes only part way through the audio file.) I played back some other recordings so I know it's not the speakers...

Could someone kindly give me step by step instructions on adding music in the background to a voiceover, in Cool Edit. Thank you.

I know what I did, but I don't know how to fix it. I downloaded a Karoake program with recording feature, playing around, and although I deleted the program, I am now not able to record. And I have a rush Voiceover job. I'm sick. Can you help? I have WindowsXP. Joan

I was happily editing my audio file in Cool Edit, cut and went to paste and hit 'copy' instead. Now I have a file in raw data and I can't get my mp3 audio file, on which I was working, back again. I have no idea what I did. Can anyone help!! Thanks.

I really like Vocal Compressor (Great!) in Cool Edit but it's just a tad too loud/echoey. Can someone give me precise directions to take it down just a little. I'm having a hard time getting the 'in your face' sound I want and this seems to be the answer. Keep the explanation simple, please...

In Cool Edit, how do I add a touch of reverb or a richer 'in your face' sound without having it sound like I'm in a parking garage? Simple instructions please. Thank you.

Hi: I posted this elsewhere and it might have been the wrong place. I recently purchased an audio buddy and dbx 286a pro to work with my 3525 audio technica mic, and have no idea how to set it all up. I also bought headphones, (to plug into the audio buddy) and have Cool Edit. Thanks, guys...

Hi: I've recently purchased an audio buddy and more recently a dbx pro 286A - I have no idea how to set it all up with my 3525 audio technica mic. I'm using Cool Edit also. Can anyone give me step by step instructions for putting this together. Also bought new headphones. Just plugging the...

I do voiceover, and I have a rather large file that I had to saved to WAV for a client. I tried to send it by ftp without luck, (That's another sad story of this technically challenged person) so am making a CD, or trying to. The file is 214 MB long, or 224,776,193 bytes. I burned the CD to...

Hi all: I have Cool Edit and I recorded a fairly large voice over job into several files. Now I need to create one file for and paste each part into it. I have no idea how to copy and paste, or however it's done, in order to transfer it ftp. (Just learned to do that.) Can anyone help me...

Hi all: Well, all my helpful friends who taught me much, I've done little recording since, and suddenly I have a great Voice Over job, and I can't get my machine to record anything. I can't figure out what the hell I'm doing wrong. I have my audio buddy, 3525 Audio Technica Mike, Cool Edit...

Hi Gidge, Tex and all who have helped me get this far since I began this venture. Well, I have 4 clips on my site now - the above two recording using a condensor mic Technica 3525 the bottom two with a dynamic mic, Shure sm58- I'd like comments on that aspect; can you year the difference...

Can anyone tell me which is the best condensor mic of the above two and what the differences are between them? Thank you.

For narrating books should I be recording in audio or stereo? Does it matter re quality. Thanks. Joan Actually got a brief clip on my site thanks to everyone who gave their invaluable advice. Joan
