Oddly, this isn't an Audacity problem. If the headset driver software makes the microphone and headphone available to Windows, then Audacity will be able to select them and use them for recording and playback. Probably alone. I'm guessing you can't do that and use it for a game or anything else at t...

Also, I can see this on the horizon. Audacity doesn't save sound files. You have to Export to get a real sound file. Audacity does save Projects. The AUP file is a Project Manager. It tells Audacity what to do with all that stuff in the _DATA folder which is where the show actually is. You can send ...

Totally. I use a Behringer UCA-202 between my stereo sound mixer and my machine. I own two. Both work very well. In my particular case, I have my keyboard headphone output jacked into my sound system. The keyboard has no formal line-out. http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/peaveyUCA202Lenovo-650....

It's a little more magic than that, although that would be magic enough. MP3 works by figuring out, magically, which sounds you need for your show and which it can throw away.

Regarding the WCAG 'test,' that's a result on the Analyze/Contrast screen, which collects sound data and then gives some numbers about background noise compared to foreground, so one might think it's a sound test. I think I got that one. That's using Analyze > Contrast in its purist form all the wa...

Attached is the version 3 Nyquist De-Esser. I've never used it.

am using my imac's internal microphone to record vocals - the quality was better than expected I have shot temporary theatrical tracks with my Mac built-in microphone and regularly use my Mac Stereo Line-In for paid gigs. Yes, they do work very well. However, Macs now have microphone processing and...

Behold, LZW compression. Lempel and Ziv were world-class Subject Matter Experts on data compression and information processing who weren't speaking to each other. Welch was the one that got both them into a room and said nobody was leaving until they produced a working, integrated product. And he ha...
