Re: Asking the user to enable plug-ins right after installing them is cumbersome

it is reasonable to assume they want to use it. Maybe not. We have some people who install suites or collections of plugins when they only want one or two in this immediate show or performance. Enabling all of them would be chaos in the editing operating panels, forcing the user to delete all the o...

Re: "Can't find project data folder"???

don't know, whether the content of the folder is really the last state. Isn't chaos just the best? I can't think of a way to get what you got. Audacity saves the _DATA folder with all its little AU files first and only then, when everything is down, it makes the AUP file as instructions how to put ...

Re: I recorded my voice in different WAV files but they sound different

If the voice was the whole show, I'd say it may need a little work, but since it goes with a video track, I think it's fine as it is. The first clip has just the slightest processing distortion. It's permanent. We can't take that out. If you do that again, I think the phone is a very good way to go,...

Re: Noise floor exceeds ACX limit

It's a little rough to start from the middle of the movie, so can you burn a fresh 10 second sound file according to this. https://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/TestClip/Record_A_Clip.html Which Audacity do you have? If it's 2.4.1, the mastering process is a little different. It isn't you. This stuff ...

Re: Export Dance Track into ITunes

I think I would make sure each track had the right name and then export each one as its own M4A—or WAV. Pull them into iTunes and then into a playlist. That will let you arrange the music as you want, play them one after the other, and should carry the song titles as it plays. The newer iTunes are a...

Re: Audacity Stops Recording

Is there any way to rule out that this is a problem with Audacity Record from your laptop built-in microphone. You may get feedback howling. That's normal. You can either: Turn the microphone volume down in Audacity. Turn the playback down in the computer. Turn the playback down in Audacity. De-sel...

Re: Monitoring Input While Recording

Audacity > Edit > Preferences > Recording > [X] Playthrough. Both of the Audacity sound meters should jump and if you have headphones or a speaker system connected and selected they should wake up. There is a caution. The sound will not be perfectly timed with the turntable. The delay or echo will c...

Re: Audacity Stops Recording

anything else I can do to try to mitigate this issue? Does the maker of the tape player have a forum, help pages, or a help desk? We have two strikes right at the start. I don't have a USB take player and I'm not on Windows. This is a forum. Users helping each other. I'm a volunteer. We can wait fo...
