As near as I can tell, the Delta doesn't do any analog management or switching at all, and that's what you need for zero latency real-time monitoring. Once the show goes to digital bits you have to deal with A/D and D/A delays.

The fuzzy impression I get from the instruction book is you're missing part of the show. This thing takes care of the digital input/output and is intended to be used with a mixer. The mixer performs all the local monitoring, not the Delta. Page 7.

Any idea why this is occurring? Your sound card takes the analog voltages coming from your microphone and translates them into digital signals that the computer understands. It's doing it wrong. And it's not unusual, either. My test picture was taken from a small microphone amplifier I have that ha...

People have trouble going from PC to PC. I think going between platforms is begging for trouble. We generally tell people they can't easily move projects at all and to export the work as WAV and move those. People fail to understand that Audacity Projects can contain thousands of clips and files and...

The ability to capture sound at distances with the Rode VideoMic is also very pleasing. It could easily pick up voices at moderate volumes from over 20 feet away. That's the problem. Not the solution. That microphone is designed for shotgun newsgathering use. Not production voice capture. I'm going...

Virus Protection, Email, Photoshop? There can't be any competition for the computer time, either.

You could have a ratty digital connection and that will create problems. Replug everything once or twice. Is it actually clear, missing musical notes, or is there noise, too.

Did you notice that there's only one vague reference to Audacity in that whole post? There is no "Professional Audio Filter."

Beat me to it. You can do quite a bit to improve the presentation past the sound card problems. Note that the presenter sounds a bit like she's on coffee and is bright and cheerful and forward. You're not. That's just paying attention to the rhythm and stress of your voice. It's not that hard. Also ...

so old it doesn't matter how many times its been played. Yes, but remember there is still that "letting vinyl rest" thing. It takes a vinyl record an hour or more to recover from the stress of having been played once. We are talking about dragging a diamond knife over plastic Also, much h...

Audacity will not work into a full or badly fragmented hard drive. You need to keep at least 20% free space to do live audio (or video) production. Defrag -- Right Click Start > Explore > Right Click Local Drive C: > Properties (Used, Remaining) -- Tools > Error Checking & Defragmentation Koz
