Audacity Forum

I haven't seen any How To's about such things on the ACX site, No and that's precisely where we had our little discussion. We live in details and specifications and they tend toward broad overviews and generalities. I haven't found it yet, but we have actual technical tests to make sure your perfor...

That's not editing. That's performance rescue, filtering and forensics. Different people and software tend to be good at those jobs. What's the actual job? Are you transferring vinyl to DVD? Audacity has a very good section on how to do that including third party software. The next version of Audaci...

I tend to not think that. I think it's Frying Mosquitoes where the audible portion of the USB/digital noise has been filtered out and the manufacturers called it good and shipped it.

One other note. I have gone on "hum hunting" trips by running my sound recording system in monitor mode into my headphones (right-click in the red recording meters > Start Monitoring). It does everything but "roll tape." Turn it up and walk around and see if I can figure out wher...
