uBlock origin[al] ad-blocker is the cure for that. How did you discover that? I'm amazed I didn't have to "teach" it anything. It works as well as an older security program I had which collapsed in the last FireFox update. One way to get a blizzard of hits is Google "ad blocker,"...

I had mixed results with store-bought tapes. Some work OK and many of them don't. Unfortunately, cassettes are at the bottom of the music pecking order and nobody expects them to sound very good. That's usually complete hogwash. I sat through a demonstration of metal tape and strict Dolby compressio...

Audacity is not recommended for recording Chat, Skype, Conferencing or Game Commentary. Audacity can't deal well with multiple sound "devices." The local microphone is typically one device and the far side is a separate one. Getting a good balance is really unusual. You have an unusual con...

I've got a lot of unused reference books lying around, and I might put a few of those under it. The shock and vibration filter is misleading. You need both parts. The folded towel provides a low inertia "gooshy" layer that desk vibration has a hard time working through. The mystery novel ...

You should not be able to hear Low Rolloff working. That's the earthquake filter. Many "home" microphones don't bother to be careful about making noises so low pitch that nobody can hear them. Earthquake, thunder, heavy trucks, Metrobusses, etc. The problem is Audacity can hear them and th...

You should probably forget the software for a while. If it doesn't say Drivers for Windows 10, it may not work anyway. Close Audacity. Plug the turntable in and turn it on. Go into the Windows setups and see if you can find it. It should be possible to see the Recording control panel sound meter jum...

Is that perfectly correct? You have the analog version and not the USB version?

If you lurk on the forum at the same time the elves are on here, keep refreshing your browser. If we post after you arrive, you may not see it. I think the show is gone but I posted to the senior elves asking why this is happening. Were you editing or was this a capture? Why are there two other trac...

The presentation seems to have two different stereo tracks and a label track, so this wasn't a clean or first recording was it?

Which Mac is it? I'm typing on a 2013 Mac Mini.
