There are two editing tools for that. Effect > Amplify and Effect > Normalize . They both "turn the volume up and down," but they have different controls. You can also slide the volume slider to the left of the blue waves. I think the exported track will follow your setting. Watch the boun...

This is not insurmountable. You may have asked for the wrong thing. http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/peaveyUCA202Lenovo-650.jpg This is a Behringer UCA-202 connected to my analog mixer. I have two (the adapter, not the mixer). Highly recommended. It's also certified for zero latency overdubbin...

Are you using the right FFMpeg? there have been different ones and they have to match the Audacity you're using.

I think that's broken. looks like I may have to send it back again The English didn't work. The first part of the post says you were happy with one and you decided to buy a second one. Th...

The size of the blue waves doesn't change when this happens, right, just the sound gets messed up. Look in Windows and make sure it's not running playback filters or effects to "help you." I got stuck with a new Windows machine that wouldn't pass plain, normal sound tests. Turned out it wa...

Duplicate just creates two more tracks vertically. Exactly. That's the "second show" you will be pushing to the right. A stereo show is two blue waves, Left and Right top to bottom. Duplicate will give you two stereo shows. You can select the bottom show by clicking just above MUTE. The s...
