Re: Made a recording with low disk space, now cant save

If you did a straight record, then yes, Audacity should volunteer to recover the show next time you start. That gets dicy if you're in the middle of editing and it does that. We do warn people that Audacity is not a surveillance recorder and recording for hours and hours is dangerous. For one thing,...

Re: Is Chris 1.2.6 still the best?

I just processed a Saturday radio show and I didn't hear anything wrong with the beginning or end.

You should post the damage you're hearing on the forum. You may have to do it in multiple passes due to forum restrictions.

I use iTunes free on both Mac and Windows. It has a ten band equalizer.

Re: Audacity 2.0.3 can't find input...Please help!

Just to take the obvious first. Audacity looks for microphones when it starts. Restart Audacity with the headset plugged in.

I have been able to record my USB headset just fine. Attached.

Re: Advise me for Audio Book & ScreenCasting Narration Video

I do. I have one of these, but I don't recommend it because it has very low volume. Even with powerful microphones, the recording always needs adjusting to be loud enough.

Re: echo sound when saved as mp3

MP3 has a Quality Slider. There is no single MP3. You can tune it. File > Export > MP3 Files > [options] > Quality. The minimum possible quality setting for mono is 32, stereo is 64. 128 is good and it's the Audacity default unless you changed it. Anything over 256 is very, very good. Of course, the...

Re: Microphone Volume super low with whitenoise?

You're paying a serious premium for small size. For a bit more you can get a whole mixer and USB interconnect. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/PV6USB/ Or equivalent tiny USB mixers by other manufacturers. There is another poster going through this same exercise. I can't recommend what I use b...

Re: Microphone Volume super low with whitenoise?

So this combination may have never worked. My money is still on the adapter rather than the mic.
