I sometimes hear little clicks, pops, or dropouts while listening with my web browser. What's wrong?

Frequently asked Questions
Fortunately, there's nothing wrong with the sound files. It's a common problem that occurs when you play an mp3 file in a web browser before the file has finished loading into the browser. If you find it annoying, you can either wait for the file to load completely or download the sound file to your hard disk and play it using some other mp3 player program (such as iTunes).

It works, but I occasionally get ASPI errors or pops and clicks. Why?

Audiograbber [Frequently asked questions]
Not all drives support DAE speed adjustment, but if yours is one that does, try ripping at a slower speed. Try different settings under the ASPI and MSCDEX settings. A read method's accuracy depends on the system hardware and software. Click the box "Synch data transfer" under the Start button > Settings > Control Panel > System > Device Manager > CD-ROM. Click the box "DMA" under the Start button > Settings > Control Panel > System > Device Manager > CD-ROM.

When I change programs, I hear clicks and pops occasionally. Is my speaker broken?

Alesis FAQ
It is not unusual to hear slight noises when changing programs. This is due to the discontinuous nature of digital audio, and is most likely to occur when the programs are very different. Another application you are using may have configured the serial port of the PC improperly. In particular, the Flow Control must be set to "None." Exit any other application that may be misappropriating the serial port.

How come my jaw clicks (pops), and what can I do about it?

Dental Health Online
According to the ADA, over fifteen percent of Americans suffer from chronic facial pain. Common symptoms include pain around the ear and clicking or popping noises when opening the mouth. The complex system of muscles, ligaments, and bones that comprise the TM joint can cause facial pain and discomfort or popping when a problem prevents this system from functioning properly. There are several ways a TMJ disorder can be treated; however, proper diagnosis is a critical step before treatment.

Can you use EAC to take pops/clicks out?

JamToThis - FAQ: vBulletin FAQ
I assume that you are recording the CD to WAV and then using the WAV to burn a rw-cd. There's an extra step in the middle to edit the clicks out of the WAV file. More complex pops that occur on analog recording (tapes, etc.) should be found by listening to the WAV roughly to find the positions with +/- 3 seconds accuracy. Then select such a range and choose "Pop Detection". Usually EAC will find them automatically.

Why can I hear clicks in VSamp's output?

VSamp FAQ
Your loop is not set correctly. Samples with loops must not have any jumps between the end of the loop and the beginning. Check that this is not the case with a sample editor. If you are holding down the keyboard for the entire length of the sample and you hear a click at the end of the sample before you have released the key then the sample has a DC offset ie. the waveform does not tail off to zero. In this case edit the sample and fade out the last few samples.

What are you listening to?

Frequently Asked Questions About Radio Astronomy
Actually, nothing! While everyday experience and Hollywood movies make people think of sounds when they see the words "radio telescope," radio astronomers do not actually listen to noises. First, sound and radio waves are different phenomena. Sound consists of pressure variations in matter, such as air or water. Sound will not travel through a vacuum. Radio waves, like visible light, infrared, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays, are electromagnetic waves that do travel through a vacuum.

Q17. I'm having trouble listening to my voicemail messages from your web site. What's wrong?

Bphone
To speed up the transmission of the voicemail messages over the internet, we use an audio file format called TrueSpeech. To play the voicemail files, you'll need a player which can play TrueSpeech-encoded WAV files. For those who are running on the Microsoft® Windows 98, NT, 2000, or XP platform, this feature is built in. Users of earlier Microsoft® operating systems, Macintosh® or other operating systems may have to download a TrueSpeech player from the DSP Group web site.

How do I use a DOI name in a Web Browser?

Frequently Asked Questions
Applications using DOI names can be constructed on a web site with full functionality behind the scenes. For some applications, this may require additional functionality such as that supplied in the Handle System. DOI names are URIs (URNs) not URLs: they are names, not locations. Most web browsers support locations (URLs) but have limited functionality for names, though this is expected to improve substantially in the near future. However, DOI names are useable with browsers immediately.

I keep hearing ticks, pops, and clicks in my audio. What's going on?

Aviom Frequently Asked Questions
That's a classic symptom of a clock error. The most important rule to keep in mind when you're using digital audio gear is that every piece of gear that's connected digitally must use the same clock. The Pro64 network simplifies this process by matching almost any clock you give it and distributing it throughout the network (so you don't have to run separate clock cables throughout your facility), but you still have to tell every digital audio device what to use as the clock.

What technique does ClickFix use to detect clicks and pops?

ClickFix for Adobe Audition - Frequently Asked Questions
ClickFix uses a proprietary statistical detection technique to locate clicks and pops. It does not employ edge detection or spectral analysis. This special technique results in much faster, more accurate click and pop detection than other methods. The method ClickFix uses is equally effective in loud passages and in soft, so there is no need for settings to adjust behavior based on signal amplitude.
Related Questions

What technique does ClickFix use to repair clicks and pops?

ClickFix for Adobe Audition - Frequently Asked Questions
ClickFix analyzes the waveform in the immediate vicinity of the click, constructs an appropriate replacement fragment, and then replaces the click with this fragment. ClickFix does not use linear or polynomial interpolation, nor does it employ frequency analysis to construct a replacement fragment. The method it uses ensures that the replacement is as close as possible to the signal fragment damaged by the click. No.

The music I downloaded seems to be of poor quality (there are clicks/pops/, etc.) What can I do?

However, if this happens to you, please contact our technical support staff under the subject heading entitled "Music Archive Errors." After we check the issue and validate your complaint, we will return the appropriate balance to your account.

No one is listening to my songs! What's wrong?

Artistopia Music - Help Center
A. Do you remember the movie "Field of Dreams"? There is a line from that movie that has a lot of meaning when it comes to a web page, "If you build it, he will come". Having a page on the web is a GREAT idea for businesses, for people selling things or with something to say and for musicians with music. Just because you have a page on the net, doesn't mean anyone will ever know about it unless you tell them.

My knee pops a lot, is something wrong?

ACL FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions about ACL Surgery)
Probably not. My knee pops all the time. I must admit it is a little annoying, but it's never caused a problem. I asked my OS about it and he said it was probably scar tissue. I'm not sure what to think about that explanation, but like I said, it's never given me a real problem.

I put the code in my page, but it looks wrong in my browser. Why?

The Fractal Artists' Webring - FAQ
It probably didn't copy correctly. Look at the code page again, and compare it to the HTML code in your page. Look carefully, and try to find where they are different. If you're using a visual HTML editor, you may have trouble pasting the code directly. I suggest using a plain text editor (like Notepad in Windows or Edit Pad) to insert the code, but Dreamweaver (in Show Code View mode), works just fine, too.

My child can hear fine but why do they look like they are not listening all the time?

Hearing is only part of the equation. There is something called auditory processing which most people don't know about. I ended up training and becoming certified in it because that is what my son suffers from - Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) as do many many children out there who have no idea. They are the children who get into trouble at school for not paying attention, asking for the question to be repeated, they fidget and have short attention spans etc.
