It's a video and I'm removing the wrong notes from it by copy pasting various takes.

There's a career move.....

You might try Effect > Change Pitch if it's just a fractional-note pitch error.

Sure, but we only need one. The raw reading. No effects, filters, or corrections. https://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/TestClip/Record_A_Clip.html Good recording means getting your voice loud enough so it overpowers background noises, both in real life plus the electronic noises made by the computer ...

I can get the new track recording to include the sound from the rhythm (click) track That's not the best idea because that's actually a sound channel defect and it can cause problems in normal production. Do have a lead or cable that can fit from your Solo headphone connection into the Solo instrum...

Sure. Drop-down menu on the left of the timeline > Spectrogram. The regular display is "waveform." Let's see. I don't use this one very often. Time is left to right, pitch is up and down and volume is color (or colour). Another way to look at the same thing is Analyze > Plot Spectrum. That...

It seems an odd thing to have to do Manually set the Recording Latency? Audacity will run on all three computer platforms and all configurations and most ages. There's no way to pick a standard value, so Audacity guesses at an overall average and it's up to you to correct the preference as needed. ...

I went right off the end of the pier. You're on Windows and you said so. There is a program called Media Info that you used to have to install on your machine to tell you about your sound files. They have a new version which you can use on-line. https://mediaarea.net/MediaInfoOnline I am still betti...

Audacity doesn't have Mark-In and Mark-Out. This drives the video people nuts. We do have labels. Note that if you do use labels, you must link the show track with the label track, or at the first edit, all the points and times will be wrong. https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/label_tracks.html Koz

You can't change machine latency. You can't listen to the computer and do overdubbing. You have to listen to your interface, microphone, or mixer. Or don't listen to the mix. Yes, the latency setting is so your new track matches the backing track. There's an easy way to figure out the correction. Go...

So it seems to make sense to do a Filter Curve that takes a little off the top frequencies then the other compression steps. There is a problem with trying to manage tones around 3000Hz. If you're successful, it can make your voice muffled and indistinct. That gives you the problem of: "He's p...

I think we have our first "off the path" problem.

I only see a MicPort Pro 2 and it doesn't look anything like yours.

Can you post information or how we can find out more?

If you have been recording with the -10dB switch on, changing it may be enough to solve noise.
