By the way, just that you made it to the second page of responses means we think you can rescue the show. The dialog would have stopped a long time ago if you had a basket case.

Is any of this at all helpful? You should mess with settings in Noise Reduction to see if you can do better. I did those on the fly and with a fuzzy idea of what the controls do. Reduction is the loudness difference between the hero performance and the junk. You can't just crank it all the way up be...

Exactly what doesn't work? You can't talk or hear? Do you have them plugged in the right way 'round? Go look. I won't tell anybody.

http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/PCHeadset.jpg To get that to work, you have to tell the Windows Control Panel and Audacity in the preferences where the microphone and headphones are. Did this fail right after you started using Skype or some other communications software? They're famous for re...

Audacity does not apply any effects or do much of anything in real time. It records, plays and has some alarm/timer functions. That's it. So your computer is doing this. You should inspect and remove conferencing services. Windows comes out of the box all set to do Skype and other conferencing jobs....

I'm going out of a stanton RM-80 mixer into my wireless internet laptop. With one of these? http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/RCAMiniStereo.jpg Does the connection say "Mic-In?" That's a basic and serious mismatch in everything. Mic-In is Mono and the mixer is Stereo. The loudness levels...

That would be as long as it takes Software Playthrough to play through. Sound gets late any time the computer has to stop and think about it. Try this, plug the headphones into the UX2 and Force Audacity and Windows to play out to the UX2 . Not just record. Some external mixers/processors will do a ...

You are using the wall power supply, right, not USB Power? I guess it's remotely possible that an overly loud show might cause the USB bitstream to crash. That would have the same effect as pulling the USB cord in the middle of a song. Neither the computer nor Audacity would be very happy about that...

I'm not quite sure what you need e.g.the camera info for, but it was a P2 recorder. So it's one of these. Cool. Nice recorder. http://tascam.com/product/hd-p2/ I ask these things because if you knew everything about the problem you wouldn't be here and we know nothing about the problem or the setup...

http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/clips/Sound_shotgun_corrected.wav I silenced the lead woman but her time is still there. That's a vigorous combination of Effect > Amplify and Effect > Noise Reduction. Is that helpful? First step in any of these exercises is Effect > Amplify > OK overall. Koz
