You can use The Time Shift Tool to push a single Ding! to wherever you want it underneath the song, but I believe you can only do it once. If you need a second Ding! you would have to make a third track. All the tracks will mix down into one song when you Export. That's why you build a track with Ge...

i have a headphone adapter i usually use and i plug in my headphones a mic Did you just recently update to Windows 10? If you have audio driver software on your machine, it has to be Windows 10 compliant to work. Older software may not. import a file and record on top of that Does that mean you are...

Doesn't matter what you read, but read enough. Read the side of the Cheerios box or the milk carton. We had a couple of posters who thought "Hello, One Two." was enough.

It's not.

without flanger my voice kind of has a real nasual-ness to it Does it sound like you? You may need someone else to tell you that. People new to recording don't know what they naturally sound like and most people hate their own voice at first. This is sometimes because they're hearing it for the fir...

Windows will occasionally try to help you by applying echo management and noise cancellation automatically in the background. If you're processing music, the processing will try to suppress it.

Do you have built-in microphone and do you know where it is? Mine is just left of the left-hand shift key. Do a test recording and tap the area around the microphone. It is intended you not hear anything. If you do, somehow, you're recording the microphone instead of the Stereo-Mix pathway. There's ...

It's easier to mess the microphone connection up than you think. Audacity checks for connections when it starts , so if you disconnect your microphone or turn it off and don't restart Audacity, Audacity will lose the connection. Restart Audacity, or Transport > Rescan... I suspect you are not going ...

I don't think that's the headset. I think that's the microphone on the laptop or other microphone. Make sure your headset "device" is selected for recording in Audacity. You can also do a microphone search. Start a recording and scratch each one announcing as you go. The "hot" mi...

#3 is more complicated than that. It doesn't work in stereo, either. Out of Phase stereo can sound like the performer is standing behind you rather than in front and as you noted, if you supply a production to a client, there's a chance it's going to fail for "magic" reasons, like the clie...

There are reasons to keep multiple versions around. If you got used to an earlier version and its tools, you can dig yourself out of a hole in a more modern Audacity by Exporting a perfect quality WAV of the work and opening it in the older one you know. Then you can post on the forum asking what wa...
