You can see it in Spectrogram view, now that I know what I'm looking for. The tick is that stack of four red blobs directly under the 1.6 number. Screen Shot 2020-08-12 at 1.41.14 PM.png I think there's a way to directly edit those, but I'm the wrong elf to tell you about it. It may not get rid of a...

right at the 1 second mark Got it. 1.1, 1.6, and 2.2 does ACX reject files for clicks like this? They reject any damage they consider a "distraction." Their metaphor is listening to someone telling you a fascinating story over cups of tea. Very few people have ticks in real life. That als...

While you're in the Windows panels, can you get the Windows bouncing sound meter to work?

You can make a microphone interface vanish in Audacity if you cross Stereo/Mono. I have a Stereo interface that will vanish if I try to record in Mono.

aren't showing up on the waveform It's possible you're making them. There's a whole section on the ACX help pages about drinking water and how and when to eat apples to suppress lip smacks and tongue ticks. Can you get this damage down to recording date? "I remember that. That was Thursday las...

Give us a push. Where do you hear the clicks? Clicks don't have to be enormous blue spikes in the timeline. You can have tiny pieces of wave that are just missing. Do the clicks always happen in the same place? You can have some really interesting problems if the playback system is doing it and the ...

that won't remove any clipping/distortion What he said. You change the analog volume of a capture system (see pictures above) to avoid noise and overload distortion, that's what the recording engineer does, but once the signal becomes digital, you're stuck. If the digital sound is so loud it overlo...

I use Windows recording system.

What does that mean? I'm not a Windows elf.

If the show arrives at the system as a digital signal, then Audacity will let it all in on the assumption you wanted it to be that way. Sometimes you can change the recording volume in Windows control panels. What's supposed to happen is you have volume controls on your microphone interface or somet...

There can be a half-way version. Noise Reduction: Auto, 6, 6, 6 . Figure out the sounds most likely to be noise and gently remove them with Noise Reduction of the Beast. This may turn out to be an excellent default setting. I can struggle to find "clean" noise to use as a manual profile, o...
