Exported Stems have noise and hiss

Post by Goku »

Hi,

I have exported the stems of a project (44100Hz, 32Bits float, mono), with all effects off, volume to 0 and pan to center. There is no compression, limiter, dithering etc. on the master.

When I listen to the individual stems, there is audible noise and hiss present.

The project was recorded at 44100Hz 32 Bits.

Any advise?

Many Thanks,
MiltonRob

As far as I know, no one makes a 32 bit audio interface so how was this recorded?

Hi,

You don't hear the hiss before you mix down? Are you listening to it with the same playback device and headphones or speakers?

The 32Bit is the default setting, when I first start a project. I am using The Scarlett Focusrite 2i2 as the audio interface.

Hi Greg,

yes, that's correct. There is no hiss or noise, before I mix down. I hear the hiss/noise when I listen to the individual wav. stems.
Yes, I am listening to it, through the same speakers.

Hi,

Try mixing down to stems again, then quit Mixcraft and send us your mixcraft-log.txt file.

To find the mixcraft-log file, highlight the following line and press Ctrl+C to copy it:

Code: Select all

%appdata%\Acoustica\Mixcraft\
Press the Windows Key+R to pop up the Run box in Windows. Click in the Run box and press Ctrl+V to paste in the line from above. Finally, click OK to go to the location of the mixcraft-log.txt file. Submit an Acoustica Support Request and attach the log file along with a brief description of the problem.
