Re: USB microphone with low recording level

OK, but. I don't trust features and enhancements that "magically" fix problems like this. Depending on what your show is, you might want to find out if if there is something waiting in a dark corner to jump out at you. Announce a short paragraph or two or three sentences and then just stop...

Re: Could not find project data folder error message

If I read that right, the short answer is you can't do any of those things. Can you put it all back the way it was? If you open an AUP file in a text editor, it will tell you what the original show name was. It won't be this neat and orderly. This is just for graphic presentation. See where it says ...

Re: Problem with Audacity

You can't run two different Audacity programs at the same time. As a cousin problem, you can't record two different devices or services at the same time. That means people trying to manage sound in games and Skype have troubles. Games and Skype have additional problems in that they like to take over...

Re: Unable to Record Audio With Game Open

If you find a solution, you should post back. Lots of people would love to know how you did it.

Re: Unable to Record Audio With Game Open

Maybe FRAPS is OK with it now. You should check.

Re: Unable to Record Audio With Game Open

The microphone is a computer service, but the game is a separate device. Audacity can only connect to one device at a time. It's the same reason we can't easily record both sides of a Skype call.

We used to call for FRAPS, but they don't support Win10.

Re: Unable to Record Audio With Game Open

You don't want to just record the game, right? You want the live commentary, too?

Re: RMS Normalize

when or in what circumstances one would use this over Amplify or Normalize? AudioBook generation. AudioBook submission has three restictions: RMS, Peak and Noise. Peak and Noise are no big deal, we've had tools to manage those for a long time. Not so RMS. I've been using an early version of this to...

Re: Best method for combining two tracks?

If you do two tracks and copy/paste between them, you will still have to add silence between each segment to make the timing work out between the two languages. I think the 78 tracks one above the other may be the easiest way if only because it lets you make a mistake and easily correct it. If you'r...

Re: First time posting

I was wondering if we had a pre-baked step-by-step because this is a fairly common request. http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/tutorial_your_first_recording.html The Latency setting under Recording is to adjust overdubbing. When you play or sing many different parts of the same song, this setting ma...
