canderton01 Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 I used to use MP3 gain and it worked pretty well. It basically just makes your music quieter to reduce clipping. Audacity could work too.

Decaf Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 you cannot fix clipping, u can make it quieter tho well technically there is a method that works with some songs, but it degrades quality alot just because the red disappears on audacity doesnt mean u got rid of the bad stuff... and just because you see a little red doesnt mean it will even be audible. u need to watch music through a oscilloscope like on windows media player and watch for horizontal flat spots... thats a sign of a song not to play at full tilt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baydestrian Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 sometimes I see bass lines that aren't horizontal, they are kinda slanted, what does that mean?

Decaf Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 sometimes I see bass lines that aren't horizontal, they are kinda slanted, what does that mean? ideally waveforms should like like a smooth wave, not a triangle or sawtooth if thats what u mean when viewing it on WMP both introduce weird harmonics (odd order) I see...i play alot of banda and spanish music so most of the abuse goes to my mid and highs...guess i just have to be carefull with my epicenter knob...also where can i get some of this "decaf" music i keep hearing about...im guessing ur the man to see...? epicenter will destroy a sub if used on the wrong song, seen it happen first hand on michael jackson a few years back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autruche Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 When using audacity I've negatively amplified a song and used the 'leveler' effect on the light or medium setting and it seemed to help take some clipping/triangled waves and fix them. Not sure if it actually fixed them or if it just made it a little harder to see, but it seems to have worked a couple times for me. Quote Need Test Tones/Sine Waves?

Decaf Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) just makes things smaller... which makes it harder to see if you generate a sine wave you can test how each effect changes a single raw note... the leveler makes the waveform less ideal, spends more time at peak position for some reason normalize seems to be a better option, but it acts just like the amplify effect ive spent a large part of the past 3 years using every effect on that program and theres still no correct way for every song Edited June 6, 2011 by Decaf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
