Re: Cannot adjust recording slider

Audacity does that when it thinks its input system is already digital. It does that with USB microphones for one example. You're supposed to adjust the volume with the microphone, interface or mixer controls. Once you overload a digital sound channel, it's already too late. There is no fixing it by ...

Re: What does my failed ACX test mean...

The good news is I can't hear the birds. The bad news is there is still an enormous amount of background noise. What is your microphone? Where is the computer? Can you tell if the computer is on or not just by listening? I can force the selection to pass ACX technical testing, but it's not easy and ...

Re: Tone Generated during recording - how to eliminate?

I'm on my third Mini. That's my office machine. I'm typing on it. I did notice an apparent hierarchy in the USB connections on the back. I don't think they're all the same.

Re: Tone Generated during recording - how to eliminate?
