Sound Forge audio crackling and popping

2007-08-23 Thread Matthew2007
HI all,

I'm using Sound Forge 8 and I'm noticing a distinct little popping and 
crackling when I raise the volume on my audio files. That is, I have either 
a .wav or .ogg file and run it through Sound Forge's volume raising utility, 
and I choose the 200% boost because I don't know how to customize this 
boosting setting, and I save the file as .ogg. I then listen to the original 
file really loud and compare it to the file with the volume I just raised, 
and I find that the second file has this staticky sound at certain parts of 
the file that are not present in the original file. The static seems to be 
most pronounced when there are lots of loud things happening at the same 
time, or when a single sound is very loud as in the event of an audio 
explosion in a movie and so on. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated as 
I don't want to keep wasting so much time processing files with so much 
crackling.

thanks,
Matthew

I have noticed this with soundforge 6. Try tabbing through to the settings
and raising the volume a lesser amount by using your arrow keys.

HTH,
Judy

that is clipping. You need to  if you can normalise the file wich takes the 
loudest point to 0 db and rases the others 
proportionally

 I have heard what he is talking about after normalizing. There's something
else happening...

Re: Sound Forge audio crackling and popping

2007-08-23 Thread Ted Martin
In nearly all Sound Forge dialogues, you can preview by hitting alt p.  
This lets you hear what it will sound like before you commit yourself.  
Hit alt p again to stop the preview.  While you are listening to the 
preview, alt B toggles by-pass on and off, so you can compare what it 
sounds like now with what it will sound like when you've finished.

Ted.
