Re: Automatically changing speed on me

Audacity isn't a very good converter. Almost without doubt, your various sound files are at different technical specifications -- bit depth or sampling rate or both. You can right-click on each one and try to make Windows tell you what each one is, but good money is that they're different. You can c...

Re: Splitting A Long Track

"All I want is..." Audacity isn't good with defining an edit point. There are a number of very important tools that don't work because of that. This is one of them. I thought somebody came up with a work-around a while back but I can't find it. I thought Audacity 1.3 had something like tha...

Re: Need help with audio book recording

<<<when I put it into Audacity>>>

That's a lot more complex than one sentence. Can you expand on that? How did you prepare the the H2 file? How did you get it into Audacity? What kind of computer do you have?

Re: File begins playing, then no sound

<<<some files I had completed some time ago.>>> Some Projects you completed some time ago. Not some files. Projects are not sound files. They're collections of files which is why they don't move well and they're easy to damage by renaming or deleting the wrong thing. I'm looking for a clear explanat...

Someone will correct me, but there is nothing here...

Using the wiki...

I think I found the secret for using the wiki.

Forget search.

Didn't anybody write anything on Projects?

Re: iMic volume/noise issues

Oh, yes, the ribbon owner. Another oddity of ribbon microphones is that they're very sensitive to magnetic fields. Can you move the microphone around, turn it and flip it and find a place where it doesn't hum? Mine did that for years and it didn't stop until the Los Angeles Department of Water and P...

Re: software

Step us through what you did. You visited this page... http://audacityteam.org/download/beta_mac ...and about half-way down it volunteered to offer you Universal Binary Audacity 1.3.7. You clicked on it and it gave you two confusing windows that looked like this... http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity...

Re: Flatline

Excellent. While Macs have a world-class Line-In connection -- I regularly use mine to capture live voice segments for Motion Pictures -- but they will not record their own speaker or headphone sound. You can force one to do that, but it takes extra hardware or software. I have used the simple jumpe...
