<<<The problem I see with that is you can't listen to the whole mix and judge how an effect on one track works when played back against all the other tracks.>>> Sure I can. That's what the Master Audacity does. It has pasted tracks from all the other "clip" Audacities and it's purpose is t...

Probably. I could also edit each segment or track in its own instance of Audacity and then copy and paste each one into a Master Audacity to listen to it. That will preserve all the original edits, segments, divisions, labels and effects and allow me to save each segment as its own Project as well a...

There are menu items under the little black arrow to the track left. Make Stereo Track. Now you have a two track mono show -- s...

<<<Should I scrap and dl another version?>>> No. Let's get this working. I don't think it's an Audacity problem. <<<actually my soundcard is quite popular among pcdjs.>>> I believe you.

If you do that, those sound files can be moved, copied, and sent to another computer and opened by other programs. Audacity saves Proj...

You can go a long way just by getting close to the microphone. Then filter everything below about 500 to 800 and everything above 4000 to 5000. Then apply Effect > Leveler multiple times to get that robust distortion. http://www.kozco.com/lacontrol/lacontrol1b.wav HiPass Filter and Low Pass Filter s...

You told us enough to go on. Any reason you're not using the totally excellent Line-In on the side of your MBP? This may be one instance where an external sound card may actually make things worse. Audacity 1.2 wakes up in mono, but 1.3 doesn't. Are you sure you have Audacity 1.3? If I had to guess ...

Muted as in completely silent, or muted as in quieter than you think it should be?

What are you recording and on what? Pretend I want to go out and buy your computer.
