And it's worse than you think because on similar words and sounds, it's not always there, so it changes with maybe humidity or time of day. They're fun to fix. Taking this upside down, I'm not sure I could create this noise if somebody wrote me a check. Standard troubleshooting suggests that you spl...

Are you trying to record over a network? Audacity won't do that. You, the recording, and the storage have to be on the same machine. Audacity doesn't know what "Network Delay" is. Audacity will not run into a full or highly fragmented hard drive. Both will fail erratically. Just "Big&...

They may become important for testing. Post a sample of the distorted audio. http://forum.audacityteam.org/vie...
