Nope, it makes no difference what file type it is when wavpad saves it to mixpad, it's still distorted more when using the noise removal option. It's less at higher db settings. I've repeatedly reloades the prog to get back to the default settings. Why didn't this thing do it when I first bought it?

I've had the same prob with Mixpad on mu laptop running Vista. When I edit a clip (through wavpad by default) especially when I use the "remove noise" option, it comes out more scratchy than when I started out . It didn't do that when I first bought it, and it doesn't do it on my other pc's running XP

v-14 is what they gave me when I bought the liscense, I've tried downloading an older trial version, but it keeps reloading v-14. I'm assuming this is the Vista version, and because I bought the liscense it keeps reloading the same version through that install on demand prog. I'll try what you said about file types, thanks for the help.

You need mixpad so you can do just that. It still uses Wavpad to edit your clip, but it goes back into Mixpad on a separate track where you can make your next track right below it, and so-on. I play and sing, and I love MixPad for this reason. Good Luck

Trim a little bit of the beginning of your file in wavpad by clking on an empty spot just before your vocal starts,then rt clk and choose "trim start" This will cut off some of the beginning so you can now grab the track and move it back and forth untill you get it lined up with your beat. I do this all the time in MixPad. G.L. dripdoc@neo.rr.com

Well, you can buy XP at Wal-Mart and install it if you want.

Search your pc for the mixpad PROJECT file. The PROJECT is an exact copy of what you made the first time. Once you find that, keep it's location in mind and open Mixpad again. Use File, open, then direct it to the PROJECTS location. if you find it, open it and WHALLA it should be the one you did the first time. For future reff, when you close a Mixpad proj and it askes if you want to save it, always say yes (you can delete later) but make sure you remember where PROJECTS are going to be saved, and name it with the word PROJECT in the name so you will know what it is later when you are in this kind of situation. If you deleted it your s.o.l, but restore may help if it's that important to you. Good Luck

I have the same prob Richard, I get more scratchy distortion after I use the remove hiss tool than I had before. But mine didn't do it when I first started using mixpad, so I tend to think it's a setting prob, maybe vol levels or the db setting in the wav pad editor. I've been going nuts, but now I know I'm not alone.

Hey all, does anyone know why my clips sound great when I remove noise in the wavepad editor, but when I choose save (like you do to save it back in mixpad) it sounds scratchy. It didn't do this when I first got it. What the #$:^/>, did I screw up?

I'm new and I'm running vista. I haven't had any real problems other than setting up my mic, because the built in mic on my pc wants to work at the same time as my vocal mic. If you clk rec on a track, then the red rec btn in bottom lft it should rec. It won't build a clip untill you clk stop. it should appear in the track clip you highlighted first. dripdoc@neo.rr.com

Hi Songwriter, I too got wave pad to record my own songs, I'm new tho. I love this thing, I am just getting back to singing after years of not. But the Prob I'm having is that when I use the noise reduction, it sounds great in the wavepad editor. But when I save the clip back to wavepad, it sounds scratchy. What do you think?
