Hi all - first time post. Have searched the site, but wasn't getting results matching my problem. I listen to mp3s mainly through headphones on my portable device and on my computer. Whether these are mp3s i have ripped from my CDs or acquired from the interweb, I notice a certain amount of interference on some tracks. Quite often these will just be very minor "popping" sounds, but when listening through headphones they become very noticeable. Is there a method for correcting mp3 tracks to get rid of interference? I can't think of anything that wouldn't involve completely breaking down the audio track and playing with different levels to at least make them less noticeable. I use XP, winamp, etc. but these problems are embedded in the files. Anyone got a cure?
You can always use a Sound Editor such as Audacity !! It has under EFFECTS ~~ a series of filters you can use to remove or attenuate the Hiss , Pops and crackles you may have. it's available here :- http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ ? and it is FREE ~~ Smiles !
That's exactly what I'm looking for - thanks so much. Will give it a spin and post back on here if it works out.
There are better Sound Editors available on the web -- but they cost $ -- although most have a 30 days evaluation period ! Goldwave has a good Pop/Click remover filter under EFFECTS --> Filter It's available here :- http://www.goldwave.com/ And the best of the Best are quite costly ~~smiles they are Professionnal Sound Editors such as Steinberg Wavelab and SoundForge 7 -- that last one is what I use with a whole pile of accessories I have bought over the years ! ‡?‡ Good Luck !
