I've been saving my wip as AUP files. I know it appears you've been saving a single sound file. Audacity Project are actually much more complex than that. This is an Audacity Project. https://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/MyMusicAUP-MyMusic_DATA.jpg The _DATA folder can have thousands of tiny sou...

those in the 'Recent file' list of which there are 10 at any one time. I never use "Recent Files." As you observe, that only holds ten entries. I always Export or Save to a specific place such as my desktop, a folder on my desktop, or possibly Music, or Documents. Any place I can easily f...

I've applied the filter curve, rms normalization, et al and remove them as needed. The tools in Audiobook Mastering are for application to a whole chapter or segment after you get done editing and cleaning and intended to make the submission conform to ACX standards. They're not cleanup tools. Filt...

I think you made a messy assumption way back at the beginning. Computers have two natural sound pathways: Application > Speakers or Headphones. Microphone or Sound Source > Application. That's the total. That's full stop. They don't naturally connect to each other. If you used the words "I play...

I think we can do some good. You see that round thing behind the grill? That's the part that catches your voice. That's the "front". Screen Shot 2020-08-03 at 7.55.47 PM.png So set up the microphone so it's upright.. Screen Shot 2020-08-03 at 7.55.17 PM.png .... and then pile books underne...

I though we frightened you off. A lot of these problems can be fixed.

Also remember that servicing is as we get to it and from multiple time zones away. The sun just went down here.

I need to look up the instructions for that microphone. As we go.
