Re: portion of audio track lost when recording is stopped

Do you have the red recording meters bouncing during the whole capture? Are you sure?

Lots of room left on your hard drive? Is Audacity set to capture to a roomy, well behaved hard drive (it doesn't have to be C:>).

Re: 1.2.6 noise removal superior to 1.3.6 ??

It was explained to me firmly that the early noise reduction is not a stripped down version of the modern one. They used different techniques leading almost effortlessly to people who swear at one and by the other...and they're different. There are vinyl users who like the early one and consider the...

Re: Recording Guitar & Vocals to two separate tracks using M

To build on your question, Audacity will not capture two different stereo tracks at the same time. This is usually OK since nobody records vocals in Stereo any way.

Re: Recording Guitar & Vocals to two separate tracks using M

Do you get one track or a stereo track with the same thing on both sides? Audacity 1.2 defaulted to Mono when you installed it, Audacity 1.3 defaults to Stereo. It's all up to the Mbox. If you have a really simple one that automatically mixes everything down to one stereo show, that's the ball game,...

New Smiley

How do I make a smiley? Or more to the point, include one that I make?

I know how to make favicons (badly). Is there a smiley formula?
