Re: Crazy amounts of noise
Thank you. I'm not sure how you got that work, but it shows IMA as a compressed file type and the only one I could find is an uncompressed version (attached). Where did you get the file from? 16.000 KHz is just above the quality of AM radio, if that's what it's trying to tell us. Some paid versions ...
Re: latency
Whatever you're using as the first, rhythm, or reference track has to play back from Audacity. Audacity has to manage both the live microphone recording and the playback track. Listening to live speakers seems to be a good idea until you find Audacity recording the wrong things onto your voice track...

Re: Headset mic isn't recognized
So your system is a cousin to this: http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/PCHeadset.jpg No, it shouldn't need additional software. Mic-In is a built-in part of the machine. It came that way. We had another posting with a similar problem. Everything seemed to be OK in Windows land, but Audacity just...

Re: [Audacity 2.0.6] Tin-Can Echoing Noise
I record my sermons in church with Audacity. I also download YouTube videos and convert them to MP3s. However, when I go to trim the project and export it, the resulting MP3 sounds like it was recorded in a tin can. Maybe too much information. Both the YouTube selections and your live performance s...

Re: No Sound from Exported Files
If you have a USB turntable, sometimes Windows will try to play sound back out to the turntable instead of speakers or headphones. Unplug the turntable and try it.

Re: Volume vs Gain?
Outside of Audacity, in the regular 16-bit/24-bit world, exceeding 0 causes the digital system to run out of numbers. The file just stops following the performance during those brief instances when the blue waves try to smash their way to heaven. Audacity internally works at 32-bit floating which do...

Re: Gaps and Missing Audio
Our first problem is that 2.0.5 and 2.0.6 (current) are not fully supported in Yosemite. We do expect most of it to work, but 2.1.x will be the first version explicitly supporting OS-X 10.10.x. But my recordings have lots of completely missing segments. So this has happened more than once? Yes, that...

Re: Wanted: mastering chain for meeting ACX Guidelines
By the way. You are the poster child for a recording solution I've recommended several times and most people look at me like I'm from Mars. Stop using the computer to record. There are even some people who insist on using a Zoom H-something configured as a USB microphone thus needlessly introducing ...

Re: repairing whispered voice
I can't do it. There's just not enough there to rescue. Noise Removal is intended to help with very quiet background noises. It won't do surveillance rescue.

Re: Cannot Record - Windows Server 2012 R2
It usually isn't the delay. It's that the delay changes. Packet switching is not a constant stream of data. It has fits and starts and that creates problems with any software that doesn't understand them. You can get interface software that evens out the erratic arrivals, but that usually creates pr...
