I'm going to wear my Producer hat for a minute (upper case intentional). "OK, I don't hear any of those mouth problems on my very good quality sound system, so we're done. Forget the lemons." "However, I find those oddball ............ pauses in the middle of a phrase really ............

I'm not a Windows elf, but I seem to remember my old Win7 machine had a bouncing light sound meter in the sound control panels so I could test my connections. If you put sounds like my bounce back and forth test into the machine, does the control panel meter respond to both left and right? I seem to...

If you do listen that way, then segment four will vanish. All of the standard Vocal Removal tools or...

I have no experiences with a Yeti, but I've used a snowball and that's always done exactly what it's supposed to do. I would try a different USB cable before I took it back.

It's very difficult to split the two halves of a bi-directional recording captured as one track and produce a balanced show. That's why we strongly recommend Pamela or some other Skype recording software that can produce a split recording (me on the left, them on the right) at the beginning. The fir...

Is it possible to make an Audacity recording all the way through with your Mac just to have a "Desperation Method" available? Audacity is available on all three computer platforms and with the exception of a Control/Command key swap here and there, it acts the same. There are several quest...
