Constant Static noise when audio is paused!
Hello!
I'm new here, how do you do?
What I have right now is a fairly simple question, but a VERY important one for me;
So, I have to record audio for video making purposes, and perhaps even voice acting work later on.
I have a USB microphone, which doesn't really matter here (you'll see why later), so I can record directly into the laptop I'm using.
So, I recorded the audio using Audacity, removed a bit of background noise (standard static noise, etc), then exported it to mp3.
However, once I open up the file using an audio player (I've tried Groove Music, VLC, and WMP), there's a constant static sound! I WOULD chalk this up to the microphone having too much noise, but to my surprise, when I paused the audio clip mid-play, the static still remained!
This clearly means that:
A. It's not the microphone's fault;
B. It's not the audio file's fault.
When I turned off the audio playing tab, all the static noise immediately stopped (I'm using AKG earbuds by the way), which means that this is most likely a problem with the audio player(s). Also, BEFORE I start playing the audio file (or after it ends), there's no static. There is only static when I pause the video mid-play, and I suspect DURING the audio file playing as well!
Obviously this poses a big problem for me, since I can't properly check the quality of the recorded audio!
Could someone help?
Thanks in advance,
Eojin :)
