<<<Intel MacBook and OS 10.5.6>>> One of my test machines is an Intel DuoCore Mac Mini running Leopard--so it's a really close cousin to what you have. Most of my testing is opening and closing work and seeing if the right menu's arrive at the right times. That alone can take a lot of programming ma...

Sorta old news. I think the format modules got away from the developers. I created a modest sound file in one of the newer Audacity test builds that arrives as 16, 24, or 32 depending on which software packages opens it.

MP3 won't do that. So your real job is finding a software package that can convert CELP+ADPCM to AIFF o...

Did this poster send you a private mail.....too? I sent him to your post. Good thing, too. This is me printing that thread. As I pointed out to him, there's a big different between knowing how the magnets and wires work inside a microphone and playing a musical instrument. I got that magnet part nai...

<<<There is a lot of fuzz>>> You know your cleaner always wants to know the type of stain on your trousers; ketchup, blood, axle grease? If they attack the wrong thing, it can make the stain worse. If the "fuzz" is from the original show overloading--or overloading the capture, then there ...
