Audacity Forum

Steve, thanks so much for your reply man! I don't think you quite understood the nature of my problem, though (that's my fault--I am still learning all this stuff so not very good at explaining things). Let me try it a different way. I use the Presonus Audio Box USB as my interface. And I want to re...

Hey all, I'm hoping ya'll can help me. I recently got an Akai MPD226 and would like to do some live finger drumming parts on it for a record I'm making. I want to do this live (it's quicker and easier for me than putzing around with sequencing a beat I could finger drum in 60 seconds) in Audacity, o...

Thanks for all of your suggestions. It was doing the same thing for 3 days straight and then when I went to try it last night it started working normally again. I have no idea what caused the problem or how it got fixed but it is working again now so I am keeping my fingers crossed that it stays tha...

One other note. As an experiment, I recorded a single track. Then I checked off the "Overdub ON/OFF" function. It then let me overdub a 2nd track on top of the first track (however, I was unable to listen to the first track while I recorded on top of it, of course, because overdub was turned off). S...

Koz, thanks for helping me look into this, man. So the cold reboot doesn't work. It fixed it last time I had a similar problem many months ago, but now it doesn't rectify the problem. Audacity will let me record a single track. When I click record to overdub a second track over it, however, Audacity...

Hey everybody, I'm hoping you can help me. Audacity has suddenly begun stalling every time I try to overdub. I had this problem before and it was resolved with a cold rebooting of my computer. I have tried that this time with no luck. Anybody know any other tricks to rectifying this issue? I have up...

Thanks, Gale! That totally did the trick! You are the best!

Greetings all, I am having a new issue. I recently got a Tone Beast preamp and am trying to record with it via Audacity. Since it does not have any USB connectivity, I am using my old Presonus Audio Box USB as an interface to connect it to my computer. Everything sounds amazing through this set up (...

Gale, I did not have software playthrough on, however this problem seems to have largely resolved itself. Today I can still hear delayed input audio when my AudioBox is in full playback mode, but the volume is quiet enough that when I have it in the middle between input and playback I can hear what ...

I am hoping somebody here can help me with a weird problem that has popped up. I have been recording songs on Audacity for several months now. I am using a Presonus Audiobox USB and recording keyboard tracks that I am then overdubbing vocal parts on using an LDC condenser microphone (with XLR cable)...
