Re: can't record audio on computer and my voice at the same

See if Microsoft has provision to do this. Recording conferences is almost universally wanted and needed (we're struggling with similar problems). Usually after you say the first hello on your brand new system, somebody will raise their hand and want a recording of the proceedings. Sometimes somebod...

Re: Is Audacity supposed to open .aif files?

Probably the filename extensions. Windows likes to hide filename extensions from you to "help you." If you restore the longform filenames to your work, you might find that the aif files you have are really something other than aif. -- Hidden File Extensions -- Start > My Computer > Tools >...

Re: Flat lining when exporting from audacity project

(bad battery and it is getting old resetting the time).

Are you recording with a Windows laptop computer? If all you have is a non-USB turntable, you should probably buy a small Behringer UFO-202 Phono Preamplfier and digitizer. That will save an enormous amount of trouble. http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/UFO202.aspx The pink Mic-In on your laptop i...

Re: Recording Conversation

Dolby Axon. Surround Sound Voice Chat for Gamers [cringe] You should dig in the product documentation and see if they have purpose-built software for recording the game. Audacity will not record both sides of a normal Skype session and that's a relatively simple system. So I'm going with no. Comput...

Re: Flat lining when exporting from audacity project

If you exported the same WAV file from the same edit points with two different filenames, do the two matching exports break in the same place?
