Re: Audio file playback

My first reactions are that Windows, in spite of all the hoop-la is not a multi-tasking operating system and will not manage two identical real-time events. Custom Programs can be written to simulate that, but it's not going to happen out of the box. People almost always drop back to linux for stuff...

Re: Audacity Project loading errors

You might mention the version of Audacity and which computer you have. These problems sometimes change between versions. I have had problems with earlier Audacity (1.2) where I could not "open" the AUP file, but I could perfectly open Audacity first and then File > Open > piano2.aup. Do ei...

Re: Recording from a tape deck

To cover the philosophy first, what you're doing is playing the internet show in your speakers and recording it using the computer's built-in microphone. The microphone, of course, is also recording the whole room and the show quality isn't too good. Macs do not have the ability to record internet s...

Re: Find the beat?

Yeah. You're stuck. Everybody makes "beat counter" software and none of it works very well. Between back beats which count two for every "real" beat and dance tunes that have several measures of rest theme in the middle with no beat all, the old Timex is not a bad way to go. Time...
