Cool Edit Pro : recovery of temp file
Hi,
I was working with Cool Edit Pro 2.1 on a 33 min recording. The program crashed several times, usually when I used "get noise level" to reduce the noice or to eliminate the hiss. Until now CEP recovered each time from the temp file except this last time. I saved before a copy of the temp files and the recover00.dat file to be able to restart from these files if a serious crash would happen. The recording is very important to me, but because of wrong settings the quality of the saved wave file is not acceptable. Can someone tell me how I can make cool edit pro to recover from the temp file? Thanks a lot. J-Golf |

Cool Edit Pro : recovery of temp file
For the "Get noise level" feature, you're supposed to select a part of the
file thats ONLY noise. Maybe a second or so. I assume you've been selecting the whole 33 minutes? Do you have the original source audio? I suggest you redo the whole job, the RIGHT way.

Unfortunately CPE crashes when the amount of noise selected is less than 4 seconds at 44.1 kHz sampling rate. More than 5 s isn't good either. BTW, you may select as well a noise-free part of the recording and use the option keep only noise. Norbert |

SNIP Are you saying that on your system and installation CEP crashes, when anything other than 4 secs and 5secs is selected as a noise profile region? That is not the case here. Steve King |

Sorry that I was imprecise. My CEP 2.1 crashes (neither system nor installation) when I select less than 4 seconds in HISS Reduction as noise sample. I've never selected more than 5 seconds because I never had a need to do so. CEP can always be restarted and I get always the last version of my file reconstructed. NOISE reduction is quite a different thing: I never had any problems with CEP 2.1 there. This is what I experienced using Windows XP. I changed both CEP 1.2a to CEP 2.1 and Windows 98SE to Windows XP at the same time, same hardware though. I hope this clarifies my previous text... Norbert |

I can't duplicate the problem with my installation. Have you contacted Adobe? Did I hear that the old Syntrillium crew are still affiliated? Steve King |

Yes, they are. The O.P. might want to try Adobe's user newsgroup. The server is adobeforums.com and the group is adobe.audition.windows.

BTW, you may select as well a noise-free part of the recording and use the option keep only noise. If this were my situation, I would: 1. Report it to Adobe and plead for help. 2. Almost simultaneously, I would open a new file and copy the noise sample to it. While in the new file window, copy the whole sample and paste it after the first one. Check for pops or clicks where the samples have been joined, and eliminate them if they exist. Then I'd have a sample that was long enough to fill the window. Then I'd get my noise profile(s) and solve the noise problem. |

J-Golf First of all, TURN YOUR MONITORS DOWN VERY LOW! In the file open dialog, change the 'files of type' menu to show 'All Files (*.*)' Select the recovery file, click open You will be asked for the file attributes in the dialog 'Interpret Sample Attributes' Select the Sample rate of your original file, mono or stereo & sample depth. If it sounds wrong, close the file & try different settings for the last step. Good luck! Hi, Thanks for the feedback. I could recover the temp file as you described. Indeed I have to turn the monitors low, because otherwhise noise of the sound card is heard in addition to the recorded noise and gives a wrong interpretation. On the otherhand recording was badly done and a certain level of amplification is needed. For the sampling of the noise I did use a small sample, but I cannot tell the duration. I used different samples and they all were very short and I guess that they were shorter than 4 s. I have recovered the file and will try again the noise and hiss reduction and carefully check each time the settings. If I find something usefull to tell I will post it in the newsgroup as well. Bye J-Golf |
