Re: One Tick Waveform Magnification and Offset???

Bingo. Leaving me wondering how I got there in one click. It did answer one other question that I had. How could people make seemingly silly selections like that. That does pop up on the forum from time to time. "I clicked on something and this mystery thing happened." The answer is a touch pad. You...

One Tick Waveform Magnification and Offset???

Audacity 3.0.0. Mac OS 10.13.6 High Sierra. I recorded a test voice from my MacBook Air laptop microphone. It looked and behaved normally. I was installing plugins and making sure everything was working as it was supposed to when I ticked something once which caused the waveform to stretch verticall...

Re: Deessing long audio clips for podcast purposes

You may have Essing problems naturally, but I sorta doubt it. Many home microphones punch "crispness" because it sounds more "professional," Big Quotes.

It makes my ears bleed and I'm not alone. DeEssing is really popular.

Re: Deessing long audio clips for podcast purposes

I didn't have a lot of luck with the existing DeEsser software, but Trebor's DeSibilator works remarkably well, and it's a free plugin to Audacity. Post a 10-second WAV sample of your Essing and I'll figure out the settings. It works best after loudness processing and you may be the test case for th...

Re: How to get Blue Yeti Mic to work in Audacity Mac?

The Yeti MUTE button (facing you) is also the status light. It should be on steady for normal use.

There are a number of different Yetis. Yeti Blackout, Yeti Pro, Yeti Nano, etc. Which one do you have?

Re: Data file not found, help!

Dig through the text and the projname = "-" should match the name of your AUP file and the _DATA folder. Do they all match? There was a major shift between 3.0.0 and 2.4.2. 2.4.2 created "Projects" that look like this. https://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/MyMusicAUP-MyMusic_DATA.jpg 3.0.0 doesn't...

Re: Data file not found, help!

Which Audacity version are you using? both the data folder and the project file are in the same filing location. ....on your computer, or in the cloud? Open the AUP file in a text editor (don't save anything). It should look something like this, with English-y words and it should have the show name ...

Re: beeping noise coming up in recording

Missed one. You have to also change Audacity playback from the Solo to the built-in output.

Re: beeping noise coming up in recording

Next time it starts doing it, make a recording with the tablet moved away from the microphone. Then put the tablet back. We are warned by some very learned engineers not to exclude any possibility, however remote. I think you mentioned in one post that the beeping can change volume? Sometimes it's w...

Re: beeping noise coming up in recording

I skimmed back over the messages. I'm not clear how you're hearing the beeping. Can you hear it by listening to yourself on headphones plugged into the Solo before you press Record in Audacity? You have the Solo set for Direct Monitor, right, so you can hear yourself and help set performance pronunc...
