dadad03 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 during sound production whenever i add certain instruments i hear this chirping sound out of my left speaker/headphones that i cant shake. It never happens when recording vocals but always when i am producing instrumentals. It is actually giving me a headache... HELP!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplets Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Which instruments? What computer? What OSX version? What Logic version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peachboy Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 It's clearly a grasshopper that's crawled into the capsule of the headphones. When you're recording vocals, the grasshopper doesn't chirp mainly out of respect for the singer, but when you're making instrumentals it seizes the moment.

dadad03 Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 that must be it, i'm sure he comes around every time you try to make a joke doesn't he Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachboy Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 First thing to do would be to isolate whether it's a headphone issue or a Logic issue. Best thing for that would be to check the same music on another pair of headphones, monitors etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ski Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 No joke, it could very well be cell phone noise. When certain brand of cell phones are on they can create a chirping noise in the monitor system. Seen it/heard it a million times. Or... I've also found that if my project has a TON of tracks and either I add plugins or even unpack a folder that I'll get a chirp-like sound that's really freekin' annoying. BTW, do you ever end up with this noise getting recorded on your tracks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
