Audacity Forum

Thanks Koz and Doug. So, although I have connected the keyboard to the PC with what I thought was a regular USB connection (trident shaped symbol on back of keyboard), my PC still thinks it’s a MIDI input? I have separate MIDI connections on the keyboard so I assumed that they were for recording MID...

Hi, I've connected my Korg Kross directly to my PC (Windows 10) via USB. I have downloaded necessary drives for the keyboard and when I open Audacity I can see several tabs with the word Korg on them from the drop downs in 'Line' and 'Speaker', so I know its there. Unfortunately, I cant hear the key...

Hi. So, I've recorded my music and vocals. Now, of course, I'm frightened to death of ruining it by applying the wrong or unnecessary effects. I'm not fully up to speed on what the Filter Curve, Graphic EQ, Compressor and Limiter will do to the overall sound! Can I get some pointers on what effect t...

Hi, thanks for your reply. I really wouldn't know how to post a short video on here. If there's a way, please let me know. Koz, the desk is an Allen & Heath Zed 16 FX. I have now completely disconnected the desk from my PC and the noise flickering is still there on the record monitoring bar! So, its...

Hi, after a few emails with Allen & Heath regarding gain, fader and AUX levels to try and prevent hissing on recording, I discovered that if my recording level on Audacity is set too high, the hissing (even prerecording) is awful! If I set it to around 80% it seems fine. My question is: Is this norm...

Hi, I tried going through the Allen&Heath again and discovered that it really doesnt matter too much what levels I set with their gain and fader (within reason) as long as I reduce the recording level on Audacity to no more than 80%. Hardly any hissing! Thanks for your comments.

.....I should add that I can hear through the H/phones both the previous recorded track (click/other) and what I’m playing to record another track when the recording device AND playback device are set to the Korg (line (2 KROSS2) but the new track includes all previous tracks! For example: I lay a c...

Hi, there is no ‘loop’ in the drop down options for the recording device or the playback. I have the ‘line (KROSS2)’ option on both recording device (microphone symbol) and playback device. When set to both of these, I hear the keyboard while it’s recording via my headphones connected to the Korg, b...

Hi, I've just bypassed my desk and connected my Korg Kross directly into my PC. I have the correct Korg drivers. I open Audacity 2.3.3, generate a click track, but when I'm ready to record my keyboard track on the recording track below, it is also recording the click track above. Is there a setting ...

Sorry guys, scrap that. I've done it!!
