Are you looking at the Audacity Drop-Down Menu, or Audacity Preferences > Devices?

it works great for playing streaming audio, and line input devices.

If you couldn't get it to work, how do you know that?

Without renting the movie, you can try the Vocoder effect. It combines your voice with another sound in such a way that it appears, for example, that your guitar is singing. The final effect would depend on your second track. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YR_Bjf-a5rs On top of that you can use Chan...

Audacity Preferences > Recording > [ ] Sound Activated Recording (deselect) Having that selected by accident can do that. Do you have enough hard drive space for a recording?

There are standard upper numbers. FM radio has music between 20Hz and 15 KHz, which is why FM always sounds so much clearer than AM radio which only goes up to 5KHz. Classic Land-Line telephones only go up to 3KHz -- just barely enough to get words to go through --- and no more. Lower than 3KHz and ...

This is the error.

Yes, it happened to me, too. HiHat in Hash out. I think you're watching Audacity not be a WAV editor. The scientific community notices right away that when they put very specific things into Audacity, very non-specific things come out. Audacity converts everything to a very high quality internal for...
