That Logitech is a USB microphone. It's plugged into the USB socket of my Mac. I make it look really easy, but that conference room is dead quiet and has no echoes. I've recorded several very nice tracks in there. We have done some television interviews in that room and they all sound terrific. That...

It has problems with modern computers. http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/update.txt -- I don't know that you have to stop using...

Once you pass the work through a lesser codec, the lesser codec characteristics rule. Through a quirk in the arithmetic, you can go beyond maximum loudness in 32-bit floating and have the work survive being reduced back down to "normal" in post production. You work in 32-floating so the ef...
