I have a few records that when played they seem to sound really compressed(for lack of a better word) in certain sections, and the sound seems to totally fade out. At the louder parts it will fade back in, it sounds just like compression. Here is the weird part, I thought I would sample it any way in hopes to maybe edit these problems out and low and behold the wave didn't show any signs of this problem and when I play the sample after recording, it sounds normal. Only when I play it thru the needle did it sound this way. Where is the problem at??? only happens with a few records that I have. Thanks :D

Did you sample straight into your MP?


It sounds more like an issue with your TT/mixer than the record.


Can't say I've ever come across that before




If I hear any diff I'll get back








Peace

OKay LET UNCLE4000 Give it A TRY............................


IT Sounds To ME That YOUR SPEAKER MAY BE A LITTLE TO CLOSE YOUR TURNTABLE....................


I'm Not Sure But IT IS Possible that YOUR NEEDLE AND YOUR SPEAKERZ/MONITORS ARE CREATING A FEEDBACK LOOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I.E. THE SOUND FROM YOUR SPEAKER IS FLIPPING BACK TO THE NEEDLE LIKE ITS A MIC AND SO By Science this is A Continous LOOP.............



NEEDLE>SPEAKER>NEEDLE ETC.................


The REASON YOU ONLY HEAR IT ON CERTAIN PARTS IS THOSE HAVE DIFFRENT FREQUENCIES than the REST OF THE SONG ETC...........



SOME OPTIONS ARE...........

1.TRY CLOSING THE TURNTABLES COVER

2.MOVE YOUR NEEDLE FAR AWAY 15+FT

3.MONITOR THROUGH HEADPHONES


ETC


IF These WORK THEN THAT WAS Your PROBLEM.................


I HOPE THIS HELPZ...........................

yeah you might also have a crappy amp or receiver or whatever you're using to pump pump pump pump it up... bad circuit in the wall, too much stuff plugged in at once, broken something or other giving you the fade in/out... sometimes things are weird weird weird... can take forever to figure out.

I lived in a place that was wired all incorrectly--my tv was on the same circuit as a gfci outlet in a bathroom (ground fault circuit interruptor--a little fuse inside the outlet that detects ungrounded circuits or surges and trips, used in wet environments like bathrooms and kitchens so you don't zap yourself with your hairdryer in your bathtub or whatever)... when i was plugging in the actual coax cable from outside into the back of the tv, the gfci would trip in the bathroom...it was sensitive enough to detect the signal in the cable line as it touched the tv, and everything would turn off... that was a nightmare!

but start with the obvious first: at which point does something change? Seems to be cool leaving your turntable, since you can record okay while bypassing your juicebox...start there.
