Oh, and take the sock off the microphone. Listen for pops or thumps when you say "P" words. If you have the microphone up-left, then there won't be any.

This is doing it wrong.

it'd be real nice to have an indicator to show me my levels. It's not just nice. It's required. when I'm full screen in a game I can't see anything Then you're dead. There has to be a volume indicator somewhere. You are a candidate for recording dialog on Something Else and not try to make one comp...

Self Recording can depend on the computer and system which you didn't tell us.

. Slow down or speed up a song? Yes, but maybe not the way you want. Audacity doesn't do anything in real time. You can't advance a slider and have the song speed up while you're listening to it. You can select the song while it's stopped and Effect > Change Speed or either of the other Change tool...

I'm catching these as I think about them. Putting the headphones into the Yeti may be the only way to do production without delays in the sound (Latency). I have no idea how to effectively use the compressor to be honest. You have to hit the performance close before you apply corrections and filteri...

I don't mean to say that being your own sound mixer is impossible. It's not. But you do have to pay attention.

This may be a newbie question but is there a "perfect" Gain setting for these microphones or is it all based on what you are doing and how loud you will be? I know the natural reaction is to put a piece of tape on each knob and that's exactly where they're supposed to be, but it doesn't w...

Missed a step. You have to select all the tracks you want to shift around like that. Shift-Click just above the mute button, and I'm sure there are other ways.

Here it is. Stack up all your passes top to bottom as before. Tracks > Align > End To End. It should push your show into something like my test — attached. Those will play one right after the other. Touch up the transitions and File > Export. Audacity will smash them all together into one show when ...

We won't be emailing you, but the thousands of spambots we get will. You can press Record repeatedly and capture each of the passes of the show. Audacity will stack them up one above the other and try to play them all at once. This is normal. Select pass two by clicking just above the Mute button on...
