Any one good at editing digital audio?

Sheriff Rhys Chatham · 08.27.2006, 08:29 PM

I've got a track and was wondering is someone could clean it up for me. The guy first recorded using an analog fashion but I'm having trouble cleaning it up. Any one willing to help me out? (also if u's do, Ill put yr name in the credits.)

What exactly do you need cleaning?

HaydenAsche · 08.27.2006, 08:32 PM

Upload it here. I'll do it for you.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham · 08.27.2006, 08:35 PM

uploading it now, its WAV so it wil be about 40 min.
When he recorded the track a lot of background fuzz and tape hiss got on the track plus you can just tell it was recorded too well. Im not sure if it can be fixed but I'll still upload it.

HaydenAsche · 08.27.2006, 08:42 PM

I can make it sound a little bit better unless it is really bad.

porkmarras · 08.27.2006, 08:45 PM

What software do you use Hayden?

HaydenAsche · 08.27.2006, 08:48 PM

I usually just use Audacity for recording and I do make some damn good recordings with a cheap ass computer mic and a shitty free program. I'm damn good at editing. I also have some Adobe programs and stuff I could use if this is really bad. Audacity is so simple. I love it.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham · 08.27.2006, 08:50 PM

I myslef use audacity, but I think I might have passed it's limitations.

porkmarras · 08.27.2006, 08:53 PM

I have Audacity but i normally get best results with Sound Forge.This could be because i've used it for some time now and i can get the results i want in a shorter amount of time.

HaydenAsche · 08.27.2006, 08:56 PM

I can make a track recorded on a computer mic sound like something done from a direct line in Audacity in under 5 minutes. I've been using it for ages. I've never used Sound Forge.

porkmarras · 08.27.2006, 08:58 PM

Same here.It takes practice but once you get a taste for it..........

HaydenAsche · 08.27.2006, 08:58 PM

Is Sound Forge free?

Sheriff Rhys Chatham · 08.27.2006, 08:59 PM

15 more minutes.

porkmarras · 08.27.2006, 09:00 PM

No but the first version that i've had was given to me by my friend's dad.Don't worry he didn't want anything in return.

porkmarras · 08.27.2006, 09:01 PM

How long is the actual track?

Sheriff Rhys Chatham · 08.27.2006, 09:06 PM

thats cool.
the track is around 12 minutes.

porkmarras · 08.27.2006, 09:12 PM

I've been thinking for some time about a thread where the more creative contingent of the forum gets to ruin each other's music and puts it out on a compilation album.How's that for an idea?I've tried something similar on the other forum but all i got was a 2 second bassline from some guy and i've never done anything with it.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham · 08.27.2006, 09:16 PM

hmm. Maybe.
Well heres the track, and thanks again.
