Did any of that make sense?

OK, this will be complicated. This is the address of the AudioBook Mastering paper. http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=96103 Scroll way down into the Noise section, mosquito whine. Download that custom filter, open it and read it in a text editor. The job of that filter is to suc...

Dueling posts. Yes, if you muffle it enough, it goes away. So does voice clarity. Analyze > Plot Spectrum. Run the Size way up and pull the window really wide. See where it settles into little orderly haystacks toward the right. That's where you park your comb filter. I got an example how to do that...

Doesn't count. Win10 has a "convenient" shutdown which is fast but doesn't reset everything. Shift-Shutdown makes it really start over, but it could take longer. One of the senior elves worked on the idea that USB ports get "tired." It seems silly except most if the time, resetti...

Is that a USB mixer? How did you connect to the computer? Don't buy anything until you answer a couple of questions.

The machine tries to suppress room and environment noises to make your speech clearer. Singing sounds like ...

You have two problems with that clip, only one of them audible. At the low pitch end where most shows start to poop out around 20Hz or so (thunder, church organs, large trucks) yours keeps going to around 6Hz and I suspect it would go further still except the clip wasn't long enough. That's earthqua...

No guarantees about the show. Screen Shot 2017-08-15 at 21.56.27.png I think that's still current. If the machine is completely balled up, you can emergency crash it by holding the power button for a really long time. If you do that, you should probably close all the apps and restart it a couple of ...
