Re: changing one's voice characteristics

I expect it would be more fun to go bankrupt buying chocolates for all of your girlfriends Well, that. But you only need one. Listen with your ears and pick the one woman with the right voice for the job. You have to steel yourself. This may be more difficult than a keyclick. We have two women in t...

Re: Editing function failure

Shift and Control are modifiers for other keys. We need the third key.

Re: Guitar Amp to Computer Hum

Re: meter toolbar was disabled.

It may be different in Audacity 1.2, but something like View > ToolBars > Meter ToolBar. Now for the question you almost asked. You're on a Windows Laptop and you connected your sound device (CD Player, VCR, Turntable) up to the Mic-In and launched Audacity. You played the device, but only got one s...

Re: Doing some complicated home recording

By the way, thanks to everyone so far! We haven't been abusive enough? Wait, there's more! f I were to upgrade my computer, what should I do to it? Trade it in? The only option I see in the instructions is to install 4GB of memory. Is your machine full -- does it have all its memory? That can make ...

Re: Recording with an external mic

This is not a Help Desk. It's a forum/dialog where people help each other out of problems with an Elf here and there pointing the way. Nobody's going to email you.

Re: Karaoke Recording- Tempo mismatch

You can fix what you have with the Time Shift Tool (two black sideways arrows). Select of of the tracks and push it later or sooner until they match. You should probably be using Audacity 1.3 which has controls for live recording and overdubbing delays. Edit > Preferences > Recording > Latency. You ...

Re: effects - vocal eliminator

But then once every now and then it will totally remove the vocal. Yes absolutely. But we do get posters crushed that it wouldn't turn their whole collection of Napster Downloads into perfect Karaoke. Nowhere in the instructions does it say "every now and then." Noise Removal has about th...
