some of the recording are fine, good quality, no problem, but others are crap. Does it happen to be the 78s that are crap? 78s take a different needle than 33 and 45. If you use a 33 needle on a 78 record, it tracks down on the bottom of the groove where the dirt and cat hairs are. That and the fid...

You have the red recording meters and the green playback meters running at the same time. That means you're running in feedback similar to holding a rock band microphone up to the speaker on the stage. Or a bad lecture. .....eeeeEEEEEEEE. Your Audacity will differ slightly from mine, but Audacity Pr...

In Audacity 1.3, you would set Audacity > Preferences > Recording > [X] Overdub... (select). Get Audacity 1.3 from here. http://audacityteam.org/download/ Restart Audacity. That will play your old track and let you record a new one at the same time. Are you just language learning? Do you know that a...

Audacity will only recognize one sound device -- not two or more -- and most computers have one digitizer or sound management channel. I think the older SoundBlaster sound cards used to have the ability to fade up Mic-In and Line-In at the same time and you could fake it that way. Newer sound cards ...

Newer Macs can use the Aggregate Device feature to combine two USB microphones into one. Everybody else buys a mixer. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/PV6 This is the one we use at work and I have one. They make a USB version of this for PCs. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/PV6USB http:...

Are you using a loop-through cable to record internet sound? Line-Out to Mic-In? I think you're intended to record Stereo Mix instead of the analog cable loop sound. Stereo Mix doesn't have volume control problems -- or analog distortion. This is the generic Recording Internet wiki page. See if any ...

Let me read that back to you. You Exported your music as a WAV sound file and you want to burn the file to a Music CD so any music player can play it. You need a Music CD authoring and burning program once you have the WAV file. Windows Media should let you do that using its tools. It's possible to ...

When you open your show on the timeline as blue waves, do you only have one set of waves instead of two like this? http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/Audacity1_playback.jpg If so, open the track menu with the dropdown on the left. Split Stereo Track. [X] delete the silent one. Duplicate the existing one...

That's the fileset for an automatic install of the software -- under Windows. If the mixer has special needs or uses an unconventional set of instructions, the Mac isn't going to know what to do with it. I bet a Windows machine won't know, either -- without the software. Mac drivers are pretty much ...
