My Air has all of its features left running and it has stunning long battery life. I don't need to look for the Starbucks tables next to the wall outlets any more.

I haven't tried to record work on it yet........

Thank you So much my Friend it worked

Thanks for reporting back.

One thing you could do is switch the timeline to Spectrogram View with the menu on the left. Capture the screen and then compare the capture to the live version of the second one. If the two sounds are in compressed format such as MP3, then they may already be different just from the MP3 compression...

Somebody had a picture of what that desk looks like and I need to find it again. Throw a moving blanket over the desk and pile anything solid between you. Leave just enough so you can see each other over top. Books is good. If you're handy, cut a piece of plywood (or even heavy cardboard) and throw ...

What's supposed to happen is you two record on opposite sides of a desk with elevated middle so direct sound is not likely to leak between the two. Then use good, directional microphones in "fist spacing" and do the whole thing in a echo free room with no outside noises. If you don't do th...

Audacity doesn't apply effects or filters in real time. The best we can do is reliably record what's provided by the machine. The Tascam doesn't seem to provide effects and signal processing.....

Still hoping Trebor chimes back in on the Spectogram. Did you flash the bat symbol? If I didn't seem as excited as I meant to be, I revised the graphic. See red dots. Your microphone is doing this pop thing all the time , it's just some of them are a lot louder than others. Crackle-Pops.png Koz

MY LAPTOP DIED ... NORMALLY IT RECOVERS THE PROJECT. It's scary when you suggest this happens all the time. Sooner or later you're going to hit a crash that's not going to recover. This may be that time. Sometimes, Audacity can recover an abandoned _DATA folder (no good AUP file) if it was made of ...

There is a dedicated tool for sibilant suppression, too.

Are you using all those tools for specific goals, or are you following a pre-baked recipe?
