As you are recording voice, using one input (1 microphone) you will need to use a mono audio track for this purpose. And I would set that in the Focusrite driver? Does it "know" whether or not I have a guitar plugged into the other side at the same time? If I plug a single microphone in R...

This is how Charlie Rose does it. http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/CharlieRoseSpacing-650.jpg The "Famous Table" is not an accident. That's how the sound people keep the two performers apart. That and yes, limbo lighting is dramatic and something of a trademark for him, but the real poin...

the Mac went ashcan

Home recording or production is not for the easily frightened. This is a sound clip I got from a group who did a splendid job studio recording a promotional campaign.

ACX also recommends recording live to an external USB hard drive which is a terrible idea. Yes, Stereo adapters have good specifications, sometimes even marginally bett...

Did everything used to work perfectly? I have a second channel available in my recording space You're hoping this is going to start working but it's a new setting? Usually shuffling between stereo and mono causes problems because what the system wants and what you want can be different and in weird ...

Effect > Change Speed... http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/change_speed.html ... and Effect > Change Pitch. http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/change_tempo.html Change Speed is pretty harmless. The reverse of that is probably what you did to compose the track. However, it's going to change both pit...

Leveler was going to be dropped but for the chorus of special effects editors who still wanted it—but not for leveling. Multiple passes through Leveler is perfect for creating the distorted Air Traffic Controller, Taxi Cab and 2-Way Radio voice. Normalize and Amplify are sisters and all they do is o...
