Re: Lost Data! Pls Send Halp!

A repeatable error is development gold.
I can use the noise gate for smaller sections, but if I try to do it for the entire hour and twenty minutes it comes back with the error screen and wipes the data folders.
Can you get it down to a time break? If I go over xxx minutes it crashes?

Re: Lost Data! Pls Send Halp!

I'll be back on here in a couple weeks with a bum hdd. Hopefully not. Hopefully you do. If you don't, then your show has gone to the Magic Data Sucker in the Sky. It's difficult to correct for that. I had a motherboard that had a similar failure characteristic. "Time to do production. Are you ...

Re: Why does Audacity add sound when recording?

Audacity 12.2
Is that really correct? I'm pretty sure Audacity doesn't come in a 12.2.

You can get Audacity 2.1.3 from here:

Do post back if you have more info. It's pretty unusual to stump the band here, but we got that way from posters telling us what broke.

Re: Lost Data! Pls Send Halp!

Are all the fans going 'round and 'round? I have several newer muffin fans that almost can't be heard in normal operation. It's good to check them now and then. It's possible to have elevated temperatures and no warning. You can carefully clean inside the cabinet with a fresh paintbrush a vacuum. I ...

Re: Lost Data! Pls Send Halp!

nothing comes to mind as to what may have caused the problem. Nothing in software. My hat says hardware and I'd be getting out my tools. If the machine is several years old, when was the last time you checked the motherboard coin battery? They have about a 3-year life. Who made the second hard driv...

Re: Lost Data! Pls Send Halp!

You could spend the down time thinking what you would do if the show doesn't come back and what the split decision point is. That's one of the least desirable things a Producer does. Projects are completed entities. The _DATA folder is a barrel of sound snippets and fragments and the AUP file is the...

Re: Excessive FAN noise using Audacity with MacBook

Optical drive? Weighs as much as a Land Rover? fan noise on the mac within about 30 seconds or so of recording What does that mean? Describe your system. Are you using the Mac built-in microphone? Do you regularly clean out your Mac with a vacuum? I opened up mine a while back and cleaned it out wit...
