Audacity Forum

I need to wait until I get home. I'm using a new machine with a new OS and a new Audacity at a coffee house through a VPN connection. It's not going well.

The coffee's good.

Nice microphone. It may or may not be a nice preamp.

And it clips at 0.5. That's important. It's not generic clipping. Is there a Focusrite Windows 10 driver or other support software? It's possible the Scarlett isn't supported under Win10. Pretend you're buying a new Scarlett. Does it say explicitly anywhere in the sales brochure it works in Windows ...

Can you point to the specific clip you want us to use? Or duplicate it in this thread? Pointing to a long thread doesn't always get you there.

THE UM2 weighs 11 oz, (317 Grams). I think the USB cable weights more than the UM2. Put a rock on it so the wind doesn't blow it away. Since it will convert from almost anything to almost anything else, works from USB and doesn't whine. It would be very hard to beat for field operations or a small s...

Describe the show. I can't visualize what you're doing, either. I need it to play as one show, "but when I played it, all were playing together." Ummm. What? Is it possible you recorded several segments meant to go one after the other and instead, they play all at once? That can be fixed. ...
