How hard would it be to shoot that again without the grinder? If the grinder winds up and slows down during the interview, it is now a performer in the show. We can't split performances up into individual instruments, voices, or grinders. Your first task is to split the sound tracks from your DVDs -...

You can't do this. http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/Line-Out_Mic-In.jpg The first microphone amplifier inside the laptop is super sensitive and many times not adjustable. Oh, and it's mono, not stereo. We generally recommend a stereo adapter like the UCA-202. http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity...

Are you suffering from "Microphone Effect?" Do you have a different Announcer/Presenter voice than you do when you're saying "hello" to somebody. Many people do. There's a comedy routine going around about "cellphone voice." People unconsciously pitch their voice up or ...

1.5GHz, Core Solo? That's not a very powerful machine. Are you trying to overdub? Is your drive internal? Close everything you have running or "sleeping" in the Dock. Gather up the thousands of icons you have on the desktop and stuff them all into one Folder. Really close Skype. Did it get...

The troubles started with 2.0.4. Can you go back to 2.0.3?

There's a reason the blue waves go with percent and the meters use dB. Step one: The default meters are almost useless. Grab the right-hand edge and pull sideways so the meters are enormously bigger. http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/Audacity1_record.jpg That's a perfect recording. The blue waves and t...
