Audacity Forum

would like to do live podcast with a cohost on their own computer with their own microphone. How live? Streaming? Do you have streaming service at your location? Many people's internet "Up" connection is a lot slower than the "Down" service. So you can watch a movie, but you can...

I regret some of the reverb choices that I made on my vocals. That's why it's good to File > Export a "clean" WAV (Microsoft) of the original work. Do Not use MP3 for production—ever. If you exported a sound file of your corrections, the effects are burned into the show. There are no ways...

to see what cables I actually have and what I am doing. We can sometimes roll right over you and we won't stop until somebody says they're lost or requires more information. Yes, by all means. We live on product descriptions and model numbers. Keep the receipts. Pretend you're telling your sister i...

I don't know of an audio format which will do that. MP3 won't. MP3 is originally the sound track for MPEG1 video. The video carried the chapters, not the sound. You need a player. Distribute the questions as individual sound files and the music player such as iTunes or Windows Media plays them one a...
