Audacity Forum

Audacity doesn't do anything in real time, so post processing is the rule. Audacity doesn't support every possible plugin. If the tool needs custom control panels and fancy graphics, then it's may not work right in Audacity. You may get the "default" settings and no way to change them. Koz

Since you posted in a generic forum, we need to ask you what kind of computer you have and if you remember where you got the "lame" software package? MP3 Export is paid software by Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, so Audacity must ask you to get it separate from the main, free program. It should h...

The actual Buanzo is the system administrator for the forum and the Audacity web site in Argentina. He was accidentally on an internet Black List for a while there. He contacted the black list managers and got restored to normal. If your software is using an old, non-updated list, you may still have...

In Audacity, you can get that if you have Audacity Preferences > Recording > [X] Playthrough selected by accident. De-select. You should have [X] Overdubbing selected. On Windows you can also cause trouble by recording Stereo Mix, or Mix-Out instead of a standard sound device like Mic-In or Line-In....

See if the Windows panels work differently and seem to work OK. It is proper to connect a guitar to the blue connector. The guitar v...

My most favorite tiny mixer is the Peavey PV6. It will provide 48 volt Phantom Power to run microphones that need it from a switch on the front. It will mix four XLR/Professional microphones down to stereo (or mono), and it will handle mixed high level and low level connections. You can plug your gu...

It would pay very handsomely for you to find those AUP files. What happens if you either Desktop > File > Find, or Desktop > Spotlight (magnifying glass usually all the way over on the right). Search for dot a u p. .aup If you search for straight aup with no dot, you'll get billions of bad hits. Sin...

Yes, fade or cross dissolve between the tones and the tones and silence over the course of four or five cycles. The clicks are supposed to be there. You can't start a sine wave from a dead stop or switch between different sine waves without electrical trash at the transition. You need to do it gentl...

Thanks for your help as I am very new to this and these are probably basic questions. This can be more complicated than you think. How did you connect the turntable to your computer and describe the computer -- exactly. Pass along any makers and model numbers. We have to build your system in our he...
