Audacity Forum

And that in one paragraph is what's been preventing us from writing the definitive WIKI on how to make an ACX audiobook file. It's audio whack-a-mole. If you got the noise and average loudness (RMS) to work, then you can cheat the peaks with Effect > Limiter You don't have to go nuts with "aver...

I'm surprised that the listings are still there, but the content behind them is gone. iTunes is usually better at that. Maybe it's a quirk of the search system. If I didn't already know it was there, I'd never find it any other way. One "problem" microphones have is an enormous signal rang...

It booted from the large, external FireWire drive and it did that until the drive failed to come up one day. It did video, audio, television, Audacity and other live production work just fine....

Our concern is the presence of sound in your performance that normal people can't hear, but is enough to confuse tools, filters and effects.
