Audacity Forum

Self Recording is not a guaranteed product like making the screen light up or connecting to the internet. Some computers can't do it at all. Computers can differ in the "turn-around" point, the place where the playback "turns around" and goes back down the recording pathway. Your...

Your voice is in the video? At what time?

Which version of Windows? Windows doesn't always do such a hot job of assigning logos to file types. All the more of a problem because they make it so hard for you to tell what files really are. Couple that with Audacity's internal file type and it's no wonder you're lost. When you finished with you...

I wonder if by now someone hasn't generated a sound package which will do all that....

The easiest one-step tool is Chris's Compressor. http://theaudacitytopodcast.com/chriss-dynamic-compressor-plugin-for-audacity/ This works like the audio processors at the radio station to level everything out. I change the first value, compression from 0.5 to 0.77 and it's a dead ringer for the loc...

First we should know that the difference between AIFF and WAV is bookkeeping and environment. They have the same quality of audio, so you could have saved yourself a step right there. Audacity doesn't use either one inside itself. If you intend to go outside the warm/fuzzy Mac environment, you'll wa...
