<<<it is a few years old.>>> The project? Just kidding. In fuzzy generalities, you can move a Project by putting the AUP file and the associated _DATA folder into one folder and move that. People have posted simple projects for us to view by doing that. However... If you used music files in your sho...

<<<it is playing through a blown speaker.>>> Actually, it's playing through a blown microphone. The sound pressure levels in a rock concert are so high that very few microphones can be used in the primary sound field -- the audience. Electret, the microphone type most likely in your personal recorde...

<<<should have saved it as an aup>>>

...as a Project. The AUP file is just the project manager file. Projects have lots of files with different jobs, which is why it's a pain to try and move one.

You also need to know that Projects do not save UNDO.

<<<I have a pre-recorded project >>> Right. And because it's a Project, it has a bunch of files associated with it. The AUP file (the project manager) and the _DATA Folder with the sound clips and management segments. What you're missing is all the music. Audacity doesn't pull sound into itself for ...

That's an inside joke. No, it does that to me, too. You'll find there's a magic time when it fails. If you wait longer than that time, the playback will follow you and if you do it really fast, it follows you, too. It seems to only fail at the editing rhythm that I use every day which is annoying, a...

Audacity 1.2 tools are hopelessly simple and out of date. http://audacityteam.org/download/ Then, and this is going to be a little rough, try zooming into one mouth tick and use that as the profile for the Noise Reduction Tool. Then apply the tool with...

Yes. Hubs can cause problems. USB is not a graceful, swanlike, transfer of valuable data. USB only goes one way at a time, so it's constantly stopping the ball game and reversing direction. If you have services that are time critical, like audio, you can have problems.

You're using iTunes for your iPod interface, right? Set iTunes Preferences > CD Import Settings to AAC High Quality or Plus (the one I use). After you push your WAV songs into iTunes, select one and Advanced > Create an AAC Version. When it gets done, drag the AAC song over to your iPod. You can hol...

The time gap could have caused a slight degradation in the USB connection. Pull and reseat the connection several times, or try a different socket.

If you used a CD Ripper program like CDEX instead of "Converting" the CD music, I bet you get each song without the 2-second hole. Music CD authoring programs should let you arrange the songs in any order you wish and burn in any gap usually including zero -- gapless playback. So those are...
