    iPhone 5 or earlier Audio problems when using camera

    I have a bit of an unusual issue with my wife’s iPhone 5S. When filming anything on the normal outward view the audio is almost non-existent. If you turn the volume right up you can just about hear a faint muffled sound. However, the audio is absolutely fine for Voice Memos and when filming...

    Toslink Optical Audio Gone in 2018?

    In looking at the specs of the 2018 mini, I notice the absence of optical audio. I use optical to connect my current mini to the stereo and would hate to lose it. Yes, i could use HDMI, but my TV panel doesn't have ARC, so I can't drive it as a monitor AND have audio at the same time. :(...

    Headphone output for USB mic (to avoid echo)?

    Hi all, I occasionally help my wife record VO demos and jobs in our home and I'm looking for advice on a particular bit of gear: I use a USB mic and Adobe Audition to record the VO. The mic is pretty good but it doesn't have it's own headphone jack; when I patch the output from Audition...

    What app to use to clean up audio on Mac

    I have an old cassete tape of a dearly departed family member talking about our family ancestry. I still plays well, has a little hiss on it and not as clear as it once was. I am no audio guy but was wondering is there an Mac app out there that would I allow me to digitize it and clean up the...

    Pro audio users: i7 2.2 or 2.6

    So, I'm looking to buy a new Macbook Pro 15' 2018 for heavy music production, and I was wondering if someone who has one of these processors could tell me how it's working out for them. As I understand it, the 2.2 version is cooler and is less likely to suffer for thermal throttling, but, as...

    Has the sound quality of the 2018 MBP's speakers dropped after the second supplemental update?

    I was told by an ECE expert that the way Apple fixed the speakers crackling in 2018 MBP was just cutting the high frequency part in audio signal, which harmed the sound quality of speakers. And yes, I noticed the music sounded different after the supplemental update 2...... Does anybody feel the...

    Concert video audio is super quiet?

    Whenever I take a video with my iPhone 6s at a concert, the audio is much quieter than it should be. I think it's due to the loudness, because when there's a quiet part in the song, the volume fades back up to normal. I never had this issue with my iPhone 5c, the audio was always normal. Does...

    The muffled audio on Boot Camp

    This week is my first time to try Boot Camp (2017 iMac). First thing I noticed once I had everything reasonably settled down was the, as I learned, widely reported muffled — or, one might say, "treble-challenged" — quality of the audio in Windows on Boot Camp with the standard Cirrus drivers. Am...

    Boot Camp Issues with 2018 MBP

    I’m having a number of issues with Boot Camp and Apple’s drivers on the new MBPs, in addition to the obvious throttling: Audio lags by up to 2 seconds through the headphone jack. This can be seen in everything from DirectX applications, to YouTube, to even iTunes. Audio will start to "crackle"...

    How to Remove audio output/input device

    I'm trying to use a Blue Yeti USB mic and record in Logic. I was using it no problem for a few weeks and then it stopped sending signal to the computer. I had a bit of luck restarting Logic and/or the Mac, but that's no longer working. I plugged in my old Blue Snowball and it worked fine. My...

    Got the laptop a few days ago. I noticed after watching Youtube or DIRECTVNOW on either Chrome or Safari, the audio stops working. I can press the audio increase button and it'll still make a noise. I can still hear tweets from Tweetbot. I tried close the tab and trying a new tab, but for some...
