Re: Sound forge Question about left channel to both speakers

2005-10-30 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, if all the audio is in the left channel, use the process menu, choose
channel convert, and then choose stereo to mono, 100 percent, no faders.
It's part of the presets in the box. That will get the job done. If the best
of two channels is on the left or the right, and you want to ignore bad or
low audio in the other channel, hit tab till the sound comes out of the
channel with bad or low audio. Then go to the process menu and choose mute.
That will mute only that selected channel. Hit tab till you get back to
where the unmuted channel is playing your audio, and then do the steps
outlined above. You then get only the good audio from the one good channel,
without mixing in bad audio that might be on the other channel. This often
happens with old tapes. That's why I brought it up, and thought I'd give you
both situations so you could refer back to them at a later time if need be.
This comes in handy if you have a tape where the audio only ever comes out
the left channel. The right side is just a tape hissing noise, so better not
to even have that at all. If you record in mono, then you're getting both
left good channel and right empty hissing channel. That's where the muting
one channel comes in the best use.
Thanks a lot.
Matthew

Re: Sound forge Question about left channel to both speakers

2005-10-30 Thread Denny Daughters
Hi guys,
Another option to consider is if you have an audio mixer, plug the left
channel in to let's say channel 1 and the right channel to channel 2.  Then
the channel you don't need can just be turned down.  You can set the pan
control for the channel you do want to the middle so it comes out of both
speakers and then set the sound editor to record in mono.  Thus avoiding the
extra hiss from the unwanted channel.  Just my thoughts.
Denny

But you'd still get the hissing from the mixer itself, regardless of whether
that channel is on or not. It still usually makes some kind of noise. I'm a
perfectionist, and do archive work sometimes for personal use usually, and
so this is what I use to get the best sound, by muting the unused channel.
Thanks a lot.

2005-10-31 Thread Peter Scanlon
Thanks for this detailed advice. However perhaps you made a typo. I don't have

stereo to mono, 100 percent, no faders.

The ones I do have are. My guess is you meant 6 or 7.

1. Untitled
2. Mono to Stereo 100 percent
3. Mono to Stereo 100 percent, No faders.
4. Mono to Stereo 50 percent
5. Mono to Stereo, Invert phase Suedo Stereo
6. Stereo to Mono 50 Percent No faders
7. Stereo to Mono, Use both channels, 100 percent.
8. Stereo to Mono, Use both Channels, 50 percent.
9. Stereo to Mono, Use difference between Channels.
10. Stereo to Stereo, Inverted average
11. Stereo to Stereo, pan centre, use both channels 100 percent.
12.  Stereo to Stereo, pan centre, use both channels 50 percent.
13. Stereo to Stereo, Pan centre, use left channel only
14. Stereo to Stereo, Pan centre, use right channel only
15. Stereo to Stereo, Swap Channels.
16. Stereo to Stereo, Vocal cut remove centre material.

Appreciate your help.

Re: Sound forge Question about left channel to both speakers

2005-10-31 Thread Matthew Bullis
I did mean option seven, stereo to mono 100 percent, use both channels. At
that point in the process, since you've already muted the right channel,
merging both the left and right channels will not matter, since the right is
silent, and will not add any noise, however slight it would have been when
not muted, to the mix coming out of both speakers.
Thanks a lot.

You can get a fifty dollar version with all but the most advanced features,
and you lose the ability to preview an operation before performing it, but
without paying for the program, all you can do is try it out, and you can't
save any work. The fifty dollar version is called Sound Forge Studio.
