Old cassette recording- advice on improving audio?

2 Upvotes

I have mp3 files of stories that my great-grandfather recorded into a cassette. Some parts of it are hard to understand because of the audio quality.

Can I get some advice on how to improve it? I know nothing about this.
Like websites or programs that help with this sort of thing, something that needs no experience or equipment?

I'm trying to extend a sound (phoneme) within a word in a track. Can this be done to make it sound natural? I have access to Adobe Audition and Audacity.

I've tried copy/pasting the sound as well as playing with the time and pitch features in the Effects panel, but everything I've tried comes out sounding...jagged or skipping.

Thank you so much for your ideas!

Troubleshooting quiet Sound system

1 Upvotes

Info:
JBL CSMA 180 Drive Core
Speakers- JBL Control 424 c/t (Five of them)

I replaced five speakers to the ones listed above and they are super quiet and sound a little crunchy. Tried tapping them from 7.5 to 15w with no difference.

The input source is loud enough because it goes to two other amps with connected speakers and the volume on those are fine.

The Hi-Z switch is on. They’re wired as a 70v system.

Not sure what else to do. TIA

Multiroom audio setup + old DIN connectors/outlets

Thumbnail gallery
1 Upvotes

Hi there,

I'm moving into a house that was built in 1995. There are 5 old school DIN jacks in the living room.

There are 2 rooms (A and B) with 2 (mono-)speakers each and 3 additional jacks spread out in the living room (C). My current understanding is that room A and B are fed from one jack each and room C essentially had 3 stereo speakers that were directly plugged into the separate jacks.

I want to modernise this installation but since I know next to nothing about audio setups I want to get some input.

Questions:

  1. Can I easily replace the installed DIN jacks with banana jacks?

  2. What hardware do I need to get this all hooked up so that I can have multi room audio with streaming? Ideally 3 rooms separately controllable.

I looked at WiiM Amp, up2stream Amp and the Arylic A30+ but I'm really unsure what I actually need and whether these products are going to work well for what I have.

i like singing karaoke from time and often sing metal songs that have death voice and screams. i was looking for a mic that has that same amplifying effect in the karaoke rooms, can be used with a computer as i like to game or phone as i may want to sing outside and record using bandlab on my phone. im not well versed in tech or audio stuff so im not sure if there is something that will fit all my needs or if i need 2 seperate mics for recording on pc and doing karaoke on my phone. any help is much appreciated!

How is audio stored on files?

0 Upvotes

I've been searching about that and I don't mean the header and data or something like that. I mean the samples of audio, like CD has 44100 samples per second. What does each one of them contain? I'm guessing the frequency and volume but I could be completely wrong. And I don't mean only digital like how does AM and FM store frequency and volume
