Audacity Forum

MP3 creation is a licensed, money-based product from Fraunhofer Gesellschaft. It's not free. Lame is a software work-alike that is generally used when somebody wants to create MP3s without the license fees. Audacity cannot be offered with lame on-board. You have to do it yourself. http://manual.auda...

You don't copy the dmg (Disk Image) file to Applications. You double click on it and it should either explode into an installer, or create a disk drive on the desktop with the actual application in it. Drag that into /Applications.

If you're getting heavy bass pops at the cut points, then you may benefit strongly from removing DC from each track before you edit. Effect > Normalize > Remove DC. Don't let the tool d...

If its not possible to record my amp, would it still be posible to add sound effects like gain? Audacity doesn't do anything in real time past record, play, and some timer jobs, so to do anything special requires actual recording. You left the recording job a little open. Direct connections to the ...

Sound of the saved file is ok How do you know that? Did you play it in Windows Media or other music player? when burnt to an audio cd How exactly? record tape cassette music to computer. That's the step that usually causes problems on a Windows machine. If you used the Mic-In on your laptop and did...
