Re: Interference

The red recording meters should never max out at "0." If you record a slightly low performance, we can correct that easily in Audacity tools. If you overload -- hit that maximum point, the show will have unrecoverable, obvious damage. There is a tool called Clip Fix that can suppress some ...

Re: So i accidentally exported an mp3 just called .mp3

Yes, you still need to poke around under the hood a bit, but replace this... jimmy:~/Desktop koz$ rm .mp3.mp3 ...with this... jimmy:~/Desktop koz$ mv .mp3.mp3 newfile.mp3 That will produce a new file called newfile.mp3 (call it anything legal you want) and has the additional advantage that it doesn'...

Re: So i accidentally exported an mp3 just called .mp3

You Linux weenies take all the fun out of this. I don't see why not. I'll try it. I actually posted this twice. The first time I assumed that the file was actually called '.mp3.' It's not, of course, as I found out when I actually tried it. Audacity insisted that I name it something -- and then comp...

Re: Audacity frozen after saving BIG file

Very special provisions must be made for Audacity to record many hours. Special operating systems, special drives. You are looking for a surveillance recorder. Even if you do manage to get the show back together, you need to be very careful how you export the sound files. WAV sound files will not go...

Re: cutting off high volume part

That is very difficult. If you only want to understand the words, you might be able to use the Noise Removal Tool in Audacity 1.3.11. Noise Removal Tool in Audacity 1.2 will not work. You can install both Audacity 1.2 and 1.3 on your computer. You can only use one at a time. Audacity 1.3 Projects wi...

Re: Podcaster wants to record 4 tracks with 4 mics

<<<usb hub and usb mics>>> USB microphones and hubs usually don't get along well. Microphones work in real time and hubs don't. I've been known to use a wall-powered USB hub to cure microphone problems, but in that case the microphone is the only thing on the hub. Audacity will only record from one ...

Re: End of Songs Repeat When Tracks Burned To CDs

Audacity 1.3.10 had a known export problem. Try Audacity 1.3.11.

Re: cutting off high volume part

Next time you might post in a part of the forum appropriate to your version of Audacity and your computer. This is the forum where we talk about the color of the forum fonts. Do you like the blue? What do you expect this show to sound like when you're done? Whomper is describing a more or less grace...
