Clicks after pitching/tempo change

[jdb]

I really enjoy Amadeus Pro as my favourite Editing App. Have my shortcuts all set up nicely, excellent workflow so far. (Logic and Audition are too sophisticated for the simple tasks I like to do with Amadeus.)

But I have realized one annoying problem:
When I edit Pitch and Tempo, let's say ...

Depending upon your budget and needs, there is an exceptionally powerful audio repair tool which will work as a plug-in. Izotope RX. It's not cheap, but it's better than spending hours reviewing tracks. A lot of audiobook VO's use it to assist in declicking or removing extraneous mouth noises - http://www.izotope.com/products/audio/rx/


I don't know if it would help in your situation, but unless you can quantify and automate the fix so you can use the Batch Processor, it's hard to do anything but a brute-force hack.



There is a limited period trial download version available on the site.

I am afraid that Apple’s pitch-shifting algorithm (which is what Amadeus uses) isn’t always that great at its job. In particular, it does seem to create these pops in some cases. In your situation however, slowing the sound down to 89% without doing anything else would induce a pitch-shift of almost exactly 2 half-tones anyway, so you’re probably better off selecting the “Lock” checkbox which turns off pitch-shifting altogether. Regards,

Martin

Well - I figured that Clicks is Clicks...

And you could experiment with the free download before full purchase. Not familiar with Radius. They have some amazingly effective algorithms, though.

hope that helps,

Dear Mr. Hairer,

do you have any news on the matter?

Up to now I have been going on using Adobe Audition, because its pitch/tempo algorithm doesn't produce artefacts. But I can not export lossless m4a alac from Audition !! (though I can read/open it). What did I pay Adobe for? It's all very strange ...

I would really like to go back to Amadeus Pro, it's definitely my favourite Audio tool. Can you fix this whole pitch-click-error thing?

With best regards,
jdb

ave to check all the tracks, which I have edited the last months, for flaws/clicks and repair/interpolate the bits. ................
