Re: Equalization effect causes Audacity to crash

I quit Audacity and then relaunched and created another Project. I attempted to apply the Equalization effect and it crashed. Proving the problem has nothing to do with Effect > Equalization. Do you have and use Mac Cleaner, AVG Cleaner or one of the other tools in this group? Solid State Drive or ...

Re: Help with low RMS

One poster had us going for several days when the tools just would not work right. They kept getting voice presentations miles away from normal.

Turns out they were not using Audacity 2.1.3. RMS-Normalize requires the software services available in Audacity 2.1.3.

Re: Help with low RMS

I published an audiobook mastering suite that includes the correction tools that make a lot of these adjustments automatic. One of these steps, as above, is RMS Normalize which sets the loudness to the middle of ACX specifications—assuming you change the setting a bit. Many of the tools in this suit...

Re: Light Clicking Noises During Audio

There's another handy-dandy solution. If you think the rumble is coming up through the table or desk (lift the Yeti while speaking and see if it goes away) that's simple to fix. http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/MicBookTowel-500t.jpg Doesn't have to be Stephen King, but it does have to be heavy.

Re: Light Clicking Noises During Audio

Hey Eric. Sounds Great! Just to get that out of the way. We can do two directions at once. I boosted the background noise from your last post. Ignore the hiss. We know what that is. Attached. What in your room could be causing the rumble sound? If you really pay attention, could this be your compute...

Re: Light Clicking Noises During Audio

Noise Reduction works on noises that don't change over time such as fan noise, or microphone hiss. It doesn't do well with noises that change such as background voices ... or crackles. I was hoping that the $130 that I spent would buy me out of my problems. So you have a Yeti with racing stripes. Th...

Re: I can't connect my Korg MicroKey to Audacity

Reaper is a paid audio editor. It seems to accept anything including MIDI. A note here. MIDI isn't music. It's just instructions for something else to make sound. If Reaper does record you playing on the keyboard, then what it's really doing is using your MIDI to make the music inside itself and the...

Re: Equalization effect causes Audacity to crash

Right-Click or Control-Click the file > Get INFO.

Does it say something.zip and is the size under 2MB?

Audacity forum restricts both file types and size.

Re: Light Clicking Noises During Audio

Is your microphone a Yeti Pro? "Yeti Pro" is a proper name and it's the more expensive of the two Yeti models. I have seen the regular Blue Yeti listed as a "Pro Yeti," which causes, I'm sure intentionally, no end of confusion. There is no Pro Yeti. Does your microphone have prov...
