  Inaudible audio

  Posted by Mark Withers on March 15, 2014 at 6:53 am

  Hi

  I am truly stumped….

  I have a ‘depth bomb’ sound effect that is perfectly audible on my MacPro via the external speakers. I’m using it on my Final Cut Pro timeline.

  If I mix it into the project – to say export the whole project as an MP4 (for example) it is still audible.

  HOWEVER, if I play that file on my MacBook Pro or on my television the ‘depth bomb’ sound effect disappears!

  Here is the original file, and I have not initially changed any of the bit rate or sample or frequency settings (although it is not 44 or 48Hz:

  https://www.freesound.org/people/ZeSoundResearchInc./sounds/147880/

  Type – AIFF (.aiff)
  Duration – 00:20:323
  Filesize – 6.8 MB
  Samplerate – 88200.0 Hz
  Bitdepth – 16 bit
  Channels – Stereo

  Obviously after hours of attempting to get this sound to playback I HAVE tried changing the various options of sample/bit rate (primarily 48 Hz) and frequencies, plus swapped channels, raised/lowered the bass and volume and created different audio file types – AIFF, MP3, WAV – but no joy. whatsoever.

  I’ve never come across anything like this and I approached a pro sound mixer who is also stumped. its seems the frequency is too low to be heard by all speakers, but I need to find a way to remedy that.

  Any ideas? I’d be REALLY GRATEFUL, as this project should be delivered 18th March 2014.

  Thank you in advance

  Mark
