Recordings for Indaba

I have tried making a recording of the Mac Murray College disposition by recording directly off the sound card using Audacity. I then saved it to an mp3 using LAME. It sounds fine on the Windows Media Player. When I upload it to Indaba, it sounds distorted.

Can anyone share their experiences with me or can someone suggest another forum that would offer me some insight to solving this problem?

Best Regards,

Dan Dietzer

Hi, Dan,

            I'm not familiar with your particular setup, but I would suggest trying the recording at a lower level. I've just had a similar problem with Fluidsynth. I recorded a bass tone, and it sounded fine when auditioned in Vienna, but was distorted in jOrgan until I wound the volume down 50%.

     Have fun,

         Roy.

Recordings for Indaba

I did record it at a lower level and made sure I wasn’t overdriving. You can see for yourself the difference. The original mp3 is on my website at http://members.accesstoledo.com/ddietzer/index.html

 

The same mp3 is on Indaba at http://www.indabamusic.com/groups/93007

 

Let me know if you hear a difference.

Best Regards,

Dan Dietzer

Dan..
         ..I hear the distortion on Indaba.  I can't check right now... but it sounds to me like Indaba changed the sample rate of the mp3 and it didn't go well.  Get properties on the original and upload and compare.
Kindest Regards

I've found that there may be a problem in the LAME encoder. 

Try this: Record it and save it as a wav file. Then use Freerip (www.freerip.com) to convert it to MP3. Freerip also uses LAME, but it seems that it somehow is more acceptable to Indaba.

It worked for me.

I uploaded a new version using this method and to me it doesn't sound any better.
