It could just be my phone, but has anyone noticed their music sounding like it have really really small breaks in the sound, almost like the music is crackling? I've even found this when listening to my Sirius Satellite Radio app.
Though I may have found a fix, at least for the music. Originally my music was 320bit and i had just copied a few songs to my GN. When I started to listen to the music i would get crackling like sound or where the music would have almost a stuttering factor. Well i was getting annoyed enough with the crackling I almost went back to my MP3 player. Though I decided to try it one last time but i wanted my entire playlist. Now my playlist was about 200 songs and across many directories so I wasn't going to try search the whole thing for individual songs. Using winamp I copied them all into one directory, unfortunately when Winamp does this it converts them all back down to wav files so I had to reconvert them.
My software for converting back to MP3 is older and only able to convert up to 256bit. I was thinking it was going to be just as annoying, but low and behold my music plays without a glitch, or crackle or break or what ever.
It's almost like the phone can't handle the higher quality of music. Now again this could just be me so I thought I would ask. Unfortunately my Sirius Satellite Radio app still crackles.
Anyone else find this?
also if u have used an app like volume+ to increase your speaker volume, or modify your volume that could be the issue
Good thought, though i never actually got around to installing the app so we can eliminate that as a cause.
Oh no, lossy to lossy transcoding! Those poor files.
I haven't had any issues playing 320kbps MP3 CBR or MP3 V0. If anything they sound better than on my old iPhone 3GS, especially with DSPManager.
Do they play without any distortion on your PC? Are you using the same headphones?
Perhaps playing around with the equaliser settings in DSPManager would improve the output.
Have had the same problem but only with one album so far, it is 320bit but I also have other albums at 320bits that play ok. Strangely the problem doesn't occur if the screen is on!
Give me to this weekend and let me hoot the phone up to my input on my PC maybe i can let you all hear what I hear.

I would agree too if I had actually installed volume+
I don't think it's to do with the bit rate as such but the encoder, or at least the encoding settings, that you used. Almost all my mp3 are in 320 kbps, CBR and VBR, and they all play fine.

the phone seems to clip a lot when the volume is at the top two levels. sounds bad. setting it to 3rd highest level or less makes it sound normal and smooth
Not sure if they fixed this with 4.0.3 yet, but it's a known issue that any SAMPLE RATE (not bit rate) other than 44.1KHz can cause stuttering when the phone is in screen-off low power mode. Some EQs that cause the cpu to work have been known to fix it. Also changing the buffer size in PowerAmp has also I think. There are a few threads about it. I have recreated it with another persons 48KHz sample rate mp3. All mine are 44.1KHz and I've never had a problem with any of them, they all sound fantastic.

is there any application that controls the stereo balance between left and right speakers of the headset globally ?
The headset's right speaker volume is slightly lower than the left one, I'm already using poweramp to listen to music as it has this option, but I want it to be global not for poweramp only D it really annoys me while watching YouTube videos

Hey everyone. Is there a better microphone? I'm tired of recording video on this phone and having the audio playback completely distorted. I am trying to use my Hercules as a secondary video cam when I am shooting live music. It seems no matter loud or quiet the band is or where I am relative to monitors or pa speakers, the audio when played back is completely worthless and not usable no matter how I manipulate the audio track with filters, compression, removing background noise, etc... . If anyone has an idea other than buying a second GoPro videocam, I would gladly listen.
Has anyone noticed quite low audio volume on video playback? I love films and I've transfered a few with different formats and they all play but all same low volume

I find the headphone volume to be very low on anything I play, whether it be music or video.
However, for videos you could use 'MX player' from play store, it can boost audio by 200%, that might help you.
And for audio in general I am thinking of installing Viper4Android as I always have on other mobiles but first I want to run some audio recording tests, before installing Viper4Android because I want to see if it affects audio recording in any way.

Do anyone know it? Is it possible? If it is, how is the sound quality and does it gives low sound as audio jack? If not is it possible with mods/roms or is it a hardware limitation? Low sound + spotify (spotify streams songs a little bit quiet) causes me to suffer and I'm really bored of listening the songs on 80%~100% sound.
Hardware limitations.
From Asus 5z launch video it seemed they support audio via USB .
Has anyone tried Usb audio on the 5Z
