Re: installation errors

Thanks again for your assistance. I am using a USB mic to record some narration. I finally solved the problem by locating version 2.0.0 and installing it. I could not get past two or three recording cycles without the current version locking up with that latency issue. This never happened with any p...

Re: installation errors

I have reinstalled Audacity five or six times so far today. It works fine for a number of recordings and then get stuck in that fluttering mode I already described. How can I get a previous version that doesn't do this? I've used this program for years without incident until today! There is somethin...

Re: installation errors

Sorry - I am in Win7 and am using 2.0.5 Since the first post I have uninstalled and reinstalled repeatedly. I tried both the plugins and neither, to no avail. When I try to record it just "stutters" at the start point and then opens a message window about latency control. I have reset the preferance...

I suddenly began having the ap lock up when I clicked the record control - it didn't begin recording and I got this window that advised of a "time shift" setting and that F5 would move it. I can't locate anything in the docs and reinstalled a fresh version after restrting and having the ap stuck in ...

Re: need some basics

Here's a sample. I pretty much can't tell you how I got here other than poking at buttons. I know there's a magic ingredient. More when I get a minute. Thanks Koz, but at the worst, my narration is way less echo-y than your second sample. That second sample would not be usable for the narration I d...

need some basics

I've been using the program for a few years now; just installed 2.04. I'm a Win7 user. Recently I made some voice recordings in a acoustically bright room and although there wasn't echo, it had that quality of "almost echo". I had no idea how to remedy it with the tools in Audacity. I'd like to lear...

Re: fixed volume setting

The computer I use for Audacity has no Skype installed. There is some sort of webex ap and an IP phone ap, but neither are ever used when I have audacity running. The only thing running with Audacity would be either Word or Powerpoint since I record small script files, and read text.

fixed volume setting

Is there any way to set and save the volume setting? The default is maximum and I'm constantly having to reset it. I'm trying to be as consistent as possible with my recordings. Is there any way to save a recording profile?
Thanks!
