C# FFT Troubleshooting: Sampling at 44100 Hz, 16384 Samples

[.Scott]

however, I am still getting half the Frequencies...
I can just do * by 2 at the very end and get the right Frequencies but I really want to know why it is doing this

Are you looking at stereo information?

I do not know... how can I find out ?
I am using the default microphone on my computer..
what is the different between stereo and mono for a microphone ?
mono is one.. so one mic
so it stereo more that one mic?

how would did affect the input samples ?

I don't know how you are grabbing the information. At some point you must have specified 44100Hz, 16 bits per sample. When you did that, the same data structure should have included whether the signal would be stereo or mono.

this code:

    int tempint = 0;
            for (int index = 0; index < 32768; index += 2)
            {

                buffer1[tempint] = ((buffer[index + 1] << 8) |
                                        buffer[index + 0]);
                if (buffer1[tempint] > 32767)
                    buffer1[tempint] = buffer1[tempint] - 65536;
                tempint++;

            }

I am really reading in 44100 bytes at a time from the Microphone and not 32768
I am sending 16384 samples to the FFT because I am 2^N sample for the FFT

anynow so should the code really be

 int tempint = 0;
            for (int index = 0; index < 32768; index += 2)
            {

                buffer1[tempint] = ((buffer[index + 1] << 8) |
                                        buffer[index + 0]);
                if (buffer1[tempint] > 44100)
                    buffer1[tempint] = buffer1[tempint] - 88200;
                tempint++;

because the Microphone is sending 44100 bytes
I am not sure about this
so i maybe thinking of this all wrong
