Re: Channel drops out half way through recording

It was worth a shot.
We're going to need the core dump. Which Audacity, exactly, which computer, how do you have it connected and to what? Laptop? What's the show and what are you trying to do? You can't give us too much information.

Re: Distortion Analyzer

A note. I traced it back and I think I made that sweep signal (and others) with Cool Edit 2000. Koz

Re: Windows Media pLayer in vista won't load my saved AUDACI

but then had to add " .WAV " to the file name before dragging it into Windows media player Those are the wrong words. Audacity creates a filename with the .wav already on the end. The object of the Windows filename unhiding exercise is to allow you to see it. If you added .wav to an exist...

Re: Recording being limited?

And to bring this around, Audacity doesn't do anything in real time. No effects, no filters, no clipping, zippo. It inhales the bitstream from the computer and tries to deal with it. One of the complaints is that Audacity is a complete slave to the computer that's running it, whether the computer is...

Re: Windows Media pLayer in vista won't load my saved AUDACI

First you should force Windows to show you file name extensions (.wav). It doesn't want to. -- Hidden File Extensions -- Start > My Computer > Tools > Folder Options > View > [ ] Hide Extensions for Known File Types (deselect) -- Apply (to this folder) or Apply to All Folders -- OK Then it sounds li...

Re: Recording being limited?

I have my mixer hooked up to my line in jack on the back of my computer... Let's explore that a little. Do you have a laptop computer? Connecting a mixer to a laptop or to the wrong sockets on a desktop computer can cause your symptoms. The connection overloads before the digital channel does. Auda...

Re: Distortion Analyzer

the top track is straight out of the iPod Touch That's correct. I used double audio attenuators to get to -50Db without resistor leakage problems. You can do 0dB to -50dB in one shot, but you can't do it with conventional resistors and you can't do it flat across the spectrum. http://www.bhphotovid...

Re: Distortion Analyzer

I'm revisiting this again because one of the production editors brought his beloved microphone amplifier in for repairs. http://www.flickr.com/photos/[email protected]/4293585253/ Unfortunately, the irreplaceable output transformer is leaking, hissing and crackling, but in the middle of all that, I did a...

Re: How To Record MP3 while recording my guitar
