Audacity Forum

Thanks, I'll check that out. sh

Hello All, I recently ripped a couple hundred CDs and maybe 50 LPs into FLAC format. I'd like to create a new file and shrink most of them into MP3 for use in a portable media player (FIIO X1). To do that I downloaded the LAME capability and used the chain command on a test sample. The process creat...

I had to reload the Focusrite drivers. To be honest, I can't see any difference when I look at the rates and speeds but it's buried there somewhere. Thanks for looking, sh

Hi all, A while back I posted that the recordings I was making from LPs were playing back at double speed -- chipmunks-style. Somehow I fixed it but when I resumed the project, it was doing it again. I'm using Win 10 64-bit with an i5 processor. Audacity is the current version. I'm using a Scarlett ...

Not Audacity -- the driver for the Scarlett.

I think it comes down to confirming the speed every time you load the program. The speed shows the same but maybe it doesn't really believe it until you pat it on the head. Thanks for you help, sh

I solved the issue but can't explain how. The Scarlett was set for 16-bit 44100 hertz and Audacity was set for 24-bit 44100 Hz. I put them both at 96k and it worked fine. I lowered the Audacity back to 44100 and it worked fine. Then I lowered them both back to 44100 and it works fine. No clue what h...

I'll do my best. I reloaded the Audacity program but did not delete it first. Here are the recording settings for the Scarlett: Scarlett settings.png It runs into a USB 2.0 port so these settings don't appear to affect the native motherboard sound drivers. The same goes for the DAC coming out of the...

I'm sure it is one box I did/didn't check. Incoming: Technics (circa 1983) turntable with an AT 1200EX cartridge. RCA outs to the Phono input on an Onkyo TX-8160 stereo receiver RCA line-out of receiver to 1/4" mono on both channels of the Scarlett 2i2 USB 2.0 out to motherboard. Scarlett settings: ...

Thanks Steve, It is playing at a high, quick pitch -- like fast forward. I can't be sure from the sound if it is double speed but the length of the recording (give and take some slop from editing) is almost exactly half the printed duration of the content. BTW, I tried recording another LP and it di...
