The author thought it would be nice touch for intro music behind the introduction. Right. So the actual performance passes ACX-Check. You made it sound like you have background music through the whole story. No, that will not pass ACX-Check and may actually violate ACX rules. I'm waiting for ACX co...

If you are one of the angelically bless people who can record an audiobook track with little correction, your noise floor will generally settle in the -63 to -68 range. That's with microphones and interfaces that normal humans can afford and, like you, with a good recording studio. Any track with a ...

The clocks mean you have Universal Sync selected. Audacity will try to keep all your tracks perfectly in sync no matter what you do. Turn it off with the clock in the line just above the blue waves.

I don't understand the two clips. The second one is quieter and I favor the first. It's a pleasant voice with good theatrical presentation. It sounds like other audiobooks I've listened to. If it passes ACX-Check (and I don't see any reason why not), it should be good to go. A note that absolute per...

I don't understand. If your project name is 008A - 008B, then the AUP file should be 008A - 008B.aup and the folder should be 008A - 008B_data. I wouldn't put spaces in a filename myself, but I think that's allowed. Did you intentionally put the project in a specific place, or let Audacity decide wh...

Try opening the AUP file in a text editor. Is it empty?

I;m not sure if there's anything I really can do since it's a complete song. Right. Audacity can't take a song apart into individual voices, instruments and sounds. So if someone is singing at the same time the objectionable sound happens, you're dead. Also, as I was reading that I'm prompted to as...

I think I would select small segments of the concert and File > Export Selected Audio. You can use Labels to help you identify the beginning and end of each segment. You can put a label anywhere and they're sticky/magnetic. You can drag-select over a label and the select will stick to it. http://man...

Could you pass noise before you dumped the music in there? That's worth a post to ACX. I don't know and I've never seen instructions about that. My obsessive side is telling me you are creating a theatrical presentation, not an AudioBook. My suspicious side is screaming you are doing that because yo...
