Re: A Google line for Audacity has been hijacked.

I don't know that we have anything to say about it. This is the same problem as people trying to sell you free Audacity.

Re: Calibrating the volume between two tracks

Who in their right mind would hire three different sound people on the same show? I stood next to the sound guy in a club where friends of mine were performing. The sound "booth" was an open cubical next to one of the customer's tables and easily accessible to one and all. Multiple people ...

Re: Cannot play .wav on Real Player.

<<<Then I tried to open it in Windows media after exporting and I get the codec dialog box.>>> The file by itself opens up in Windows Media, right? Without going through Audacity? One step at a time.
