Audacity Forum

Hi kozikowski Yes thanks, this is indeed correct. But in this case I have 84 six hour-long, 4 track transcription tapes recorded in the 60's & 70's at 1 7/8 ips. This is the best way to do them as any machine available capable of 1 7/8 ips is going to be a very dodgy domestic thing. I have two O...

Thanks kozikowski
I can think of several ways this would increase the usability of Audacity; in my case, transferring multiple tapes at high speed to take advantage if the sample rate conversion (speed change) that Audacity does so well.

Hi

Is it possible in theory to record multiple stereo channels simultaneously in the latest Audacity? I'm using a Layla24 sound card on a new machine under Win10. I ask as I'm struggling to configure Audacity do this.

Many thanks, David

Thanks Trebor. The answer is that not a skerrick above 11k has survived the voyage. But for this exercise, it's not tragic as I guess it's mostly hiss above 8k anyway. Still, it sounds better than a transfer from my old Akai M-8 with all it's wowing and fluttering. Maybe I should try and find a low ...

Thanks guys. My process thus far has been to drop from the B77 though a RME UCX to Audacity at 88.2kHz. The top end of the Revox is 20 kHz +2 / -3 dB at 7.5 ips (when new). I then set to 44.1. I hadn't considered the analogue limitations in my thinking. In this instance, the bulk of the tapes are so...

Hi. I'm new here. I wonder if someone can help with this ... I'm transferring a range of 3.75 ips tapes for restoration. Rather than using a geriatric Akai which will only reluctantly do 3.75 ips, I've been using a B77 Revox at 7.5 ips and using Audacity to do a sample rate conversion to the correct...
