Re: Fixing Volume in audio book chapters
Consequently, volumes are all over the place. They should not be. You can use the Audacity volume meters to guide you when you're making a recording. Click on the right-hand side of the meters and pull sideways. They will get bigger and bigger and easier to see. http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/Audac...

Re: Audacity cannot play saved .aup after crash
Audacity doesn't understand network delays. If its drives don't arrive perfectly and quickly it will assume they're broken.

Re: I Need to Fix a Segment of Poorly Recorded Audio
I can get rid of a lot of the distortion through clever tricks, but the portion right at the end is hopeless because there's no show there to rescue (attached).

Re: Sounds of 2014 (experimental)!
The vocals are muddy. Compared to the sparkly orchestration, the voices are "soft" and fade into the background. I'm a great believer in not spending a billion dollars on microphones, but some of the less expensive ones do need a little help. Did you really hear that bass line when you mad...

Re: IMPROVING ORCHESTRAL MIDI recording
Your soundcard may be forcing the recording to go through twice. The very best thing that could happen is for "Stereo Mix" to capture the playback sound on the way out of the computer as a digital signal and send it right back in to the record system still as a digital signal. You would be...

Re: Big loss of quality when exporting to mp3
All that is grand and expected. Now account for this: (Generally a big boost of treble and loss of bass, as well as other artifacts.) I would guess someone recording voices-over and recording What My Computer Is Playing instead of My Microphone could get that. Depending on the configuration of the c...

Re: Big loss of quality when exporting to mp3
I'm recording intros and outros for podcasts. For the last 24 hours, or you've been doing this since 2012 and it just started doing this? I get a good sound and mix and export to mp3 I'd probably start by exporting to WAV and see if the same thing happens. If it does, that clears all the MP3 multip...

Re: Editing Audio with .1 millisecond accuracy
One of the things that can go wrong is acceleration distortion. In The Real World, the tone is not going to start and stop neat, orderly and clean like that. The rise wave of the first cycle and the fall wave of the last are going to generate infinite frequencies. Typically, this sounds like a tick ...

Re: Tracks on LP
File > Export will always give you one long file. File > Export Multiple should give you separate sound files.
I don't know exactly where you got stuck, but that's a good possibility.
