Step One. Do not read a whole book before you resolve the technical issues. There are errors that can't be fixed later and you might be reading it all again. This has all been rejiggered for use in Audacity 2.4.2. The tools (except ACX Check) are built-in now. https://www.audacityteam.org/download/m...

Many, many thanks for sticking with me on this!

I need to lie down for a while.

Go into Windows Sound Control Panels. Select Record > USB Audio CODEC. Do you see the panel's bouncing sound meter and does it bounce when you speak? Look at Audacity. Is USB Audio CODEC listed opposite the microphone symbol? USBAudioCODEC.png Do an experiment. Switch that panel to Somethng Else. Do...

Is that my problem? Probably not, but why 32000? 44100 is the quality of Music CD and 48000 is the quality for Video. 32000 is about the quality for FM Radio. You shouldn't be producing at that low quality if you can help it. You might just be out of room and I don't mean the hard drive. For some e...

Your headset is wireless, right?

I'll still have an arrangement where Audacity and Zoom are butting heads - right? Yes, that's probable. Every time one of these comes up I have to sit and stare at a cup of coffee for a while to build it in my head. "Let's see. The special effects are coming from here......." That's the s...
