Re: Meeting ACX Requirements w/ Audacity

[[ This is take 1, which has been changed to mono and now has room tone in the beginning of the WAV ]] Take 1 still has two sound tracks, "Stereo". Attached. The download file size is actually slightly larger than the original instead of being half the size. I'm going to go with this and ...

Re: Meeting ACX Requirements w/ Audacity

One more. You need to get Room Tone in exactly the same environment as the performance. If you don't change anything, you can get it later and jam it onto the end of the show — or even submit it as a separate file. You could do that. That's dangerous in the case of someone getting the room tone clip...

Re: Meeting ACX Requirements w/ Audacity

My impression was this could be a final submission which is why you did the whole fifteen minutes, which was my surprise at the editing error right at the top. Otherwise I would have ignored it. You can always sheer off the room tone test just before final conversion to MP3 and submission. Yes, you ...

Re: Meeting ACX Requirements w/ Audacity

Nope. Can't proceed without Room Tone. I tried making room tone from the verbal gaps, but there's too much gasping and breathing to work.

Re: Meeting ACX Requirements w/ Audacity

There's an editing error in the first two seconds. Don't post Stereo. Shoot, filter and post Mono. Attached. That will half the storage, download and filter processing times. Little drop-down menu to the left of the track > Split Stereo Track to Mono. Delete one track. Where's the Room Tone? You may...

Re: Mysterious whooshing sound, but only with Skype

What could I possibly be missing? The software to record Skype. Recording both sides of a Skype conversation is not easy. You are probably listening to Skype's directional and echo-cancellation processes managing the sound. You can't stop it. If you try, the call will collapse. If you have a mixer,...

Re: No playback sound.

They should have nothing to do with each other. Make sure Audacity is still sending sound to your speakers or headphones in the Device Toolbar. http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/device_toolbar.html Also make sure your playback volume slider (by the speaker) is all the way up. http://manual.audaci...

Yes, please. In case it's not obvious, I'm chatting up the other elves as we do this.
I need to leave for a time.
