Has anyone experienced pops or a click at the end of a song. Seems like all the songs I bring into Mixpad have these. Even if I cut out the last 5 seconds of the song or introduce fades, there always seems to be a small noise at the end. I can bring in the compiled mp3 into WavePad and remove the click, but it's annoying to have to do this all the time.

I can't really help, although I recall other issues with mp3 files being posted in the past.

Just curious as to what you are using MixPad to do - and if WavePad might be better suited for your needs. It could perhaps be less likely to have the same issues, although I don’t really know.

Hi juststrummin,

I'm not able to reproduce this issue using my setup. Could you give a bit of info on your workflow?

1. Which version of MixPad are you using?

2. What are your output mp3 settings?

3. What kind of tracks do you have in your project? eg. Instrument recordings, imported mp3s, MIDI etc.

Regards,

Ben

I have even converted an mp3 to a wav file and same thing. It's especially noticeable when I add a fade as when the song fades and just before the next song plays, there is a distinct pop or click just before it starts to play the next song.

Hi juststrummin,

It turns out there is a bug in the current release which affects some mp3 files by adding a short duration of noise. The bug is now fixed, and I will get a new version of MixPad released ASAP. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for bringing this to my attention :)

A quick update:

 

Version 3.91 of MixPad is now going through our testing process and if it all goes well will be available for download in the next 2 days.

This problem persists in 3.91. I have 2 wav files loaded into Mixpad as 2 separate clips. The first clip is on track 1. The second is on track 2. I am doing a slow crossfade between the two tracks. When the first clip ends, I get a pop that does not exist in the source files. I have even dragged the handles on the volume over time on the second clip all the way down so it makes no noise. Then on the first clip that plays I dragged the volume handles down so it fades to mute roughly .5 seconds before that clip ends. I still get the pop sound even though both clips are muted at that point.

 

This pop exists when I play it in Mixpad. It also exists if I export the project to a wav file. I made a screenshot of the setup of my debug testing so you can see a test setup that still causes the pop. Notice that I completely muted the second track, and I still get the pop. I also have dragged the volume all the way down on the first track so by the time the pop occurs it is playing nothing. The pop occurs at the exact point that the first clip ends. I can also notice a fainter pop when the second clip ends, even though that one is completely muted.

I found a way to fix the pop issue. I inserted 100ms of silence at the end of the first clip and did the fade so it would end at the same point it did prior to adding the 100ms of silence.. That first clip was already cut so that it was ending at a zero point, but that zero point was maybe 5-10ms long.

Thanks for the detailed info, Stalin828. I'll look into this to see if I can reproduce the issue.

Hi majorhenderson,

Does this happen under the same conditions as described above by Stalin828?

I, too, have come here to find a solution to that end of MP3 pop/noise. Creating a tiny blank spot at the end isn't getting rid of it. It's like there is this millisecond of sound track that the fade out is missing on.

 

At least, I now know it's just a bug and not some finalization tool that I couldn't find. Here's hoping for a fix patch.

I see what Stalin828 is talking about, now. Hovering the mouse over the end and extending the MP3 file out to generate a blank area, that way. That's doing the trick. I was trying to record a dead spot and cover it up, which was doing nothing.

The popping at the end of fade outs is happening to me as well on version 4.23. It looks like this still has not been resolved by NCH. I am unable to generate blank areas at the end of clips as some have suggested as a fix, it just extends the clip longer with music. Is there something I need o do beyond just dragging the clip to to get blank space?

Using MixPad 5.99 here since ~3 months now.
I also have this issue... Since the very beginning I purchased it and use it..
I have a bunch of home musician clips to mix and synchronize. Several times I have to cut et move some portion of their clips to sync all musicians together.
So everytime I cut (split) a clip, I got a pop at the end of the first segment or start of the next segment. I even tried to fade the volume to nothing at the end of the clip or fading in from nothing at the start of the next segment with no luck.. still hearing that "pop/click" noise.
For the price of that product I would expect better than this... tshi tool is literally adding an unexpected random "pop" noise when you cut a clip. how come it is adding that noise that doesn't even exist on the original clip ??

When I export my whole mix into a wav file, I can hear all the places where I did a cut to move a "segment" because of these so -created by this software- "pop" sound.

Is there an effect or "cleaning" routine I should apply to remove these noises ?

Same popping sound here. Weirdly, it doesn't always appear on all my mixes. The only solution I've found so far is to start the mix over and hope for the best. Doesn't really work for a track with a lot of cuts though. Does anyone know if the problem was ever fixed?

Hi, ever since I bought Mixpad at the end of last year I have had nothing but problems! One of the worst problems (of the many), was the fact that on one version it was impossible to use most plugins because they caused lots of crackling noises all over the recordings. As soon as one would be turned on the noises started. Diagnostic version, all well, then they told me to try a version 1 year older than my license, no problem. Everything takes a huge long time to get to any conclusion and no one really seems to care. I am so very fed up.... Now, on that old version the noises are gone but I can't record tracks from YouTube. The amount of problems I have had are horrendous! And don't think for a moment that reporting bugs and huge trail of correspondence will help one bit. I have even demanded my money back!
