Let's say you're talking about the blue waves. Those measurements are not in dB. They're in percent. 100% up and down. 0.5 is 50% which works out after all the arithmetic to -6dB. The bouncing red and green sound meters are really, actually in dB. The first question past my lips is how did you conne...

A "loopback cable" carries the sound from the Stereo Line-Out of a soundcard of the Stereo Line-In of the same card. The on-line services think they're playing to speakers or headphones and the recorder thinks it's recording from an external cassette machine. If you connected two different...

That would be a noisy zener in a microphone circuit? That's the other problem with working signals in the .001 volt range. That and we still haven't created a real balanced XLR signal.

Those AKG microphones seem to work pretty well.

The Samson C01-u is a stand-alone USB microphone. It doesn't need a mixer, mic-pre, amplifier or anything else. The Yamaha is an analog mixer looking for an analog microphone. In Audacity, you could record from the microphone or the mixer, not easily both, and you can't plug the microphone into the ...

I just want something that can record 4 channels in Audacity. Can someone please recommend some audio mixers for me? We need to get the English right. You don't need a mixer. You don't care about gently mixing microphone one with microphone two in order to produce a special stereo effect for your s...

How narrow? If the sample of noise isn't there long enough to actually make noise, then you get some very oddball Nyquist trash instead of white noise. You have to have at least three cycles of "tone" to qualify as musical and you need more to stop and start. Three cycles of 20 Hz is well ...

You don't have to get the segments level. You have to get the transitions level. How many segments do you have? Play the transitions and gently use the level slider to the left of the tracks and make it so the end of one and the beginning of the other are smooth. The first two you can do by adjustin...
