Re: Confusion about WAV max size

They sound fine They sound fine, but are they all there? The file assigns numbers to everything in the show. When it gets to the limit, some systems just start counting over without telling you.

Re: Simple Audacity Forum Voice Test

during the production process (in Audacity) it is highly recommended to use 32-bit float tracks. What he said. Audacity uses 32-bit floating internally because it doesn't overload and distort. Mastering's RMS (loudness) correction will frequently push the blue waves taller than 100%. Then you apply...

Re: RMS Normalize plug-in error

Use upper case letters, lower case letters, numbers, -dash- and _underscore_ in filesnames. No other characters. Use ISO dates. Today is 2020-07-23. No slashmarks.

Re: Mic not showing in devices list

headphone jack Assuming it is actually a headset jack. Is that what your computer instructions say? I would expect your built-in microphone to go silent if you plugged something into that socket. Also, what do the Windows control panels have to say? Audacity gets it's connection from Windows, not t...

Re: Simple Audacity Forum Voice Test

Also, other VO people thought I was doing it totally wrong to record in stereo. Did they suggest how you should be doing it? I have microphone systems that will mount either stereo or mono without that volume shift. Does your microphone have extra software or drivers? Open up Track5a_no mastering a...
