Re: LP recording slow playback

<<<Export so that you have the correct sample rate for your CD.>>> Or not. All the clips and test music on my site are 48000.

Re: Stopped Recording

When you throw something in the trash (or recycle bin) Windows just moves the work around a little, it doesn't really "trash "anything. To really get rid of stuff you have to empty the trash. Right click on the trash bin and "Empty Trash" should be one of the options. Then if you...

Re: Exported MP3 has no sound

One other item. Where did the original sound come from?

Re: Exported MP3 has no sound

Let's try and figure out where the problem is.

Close everything. Launch Audacity fresh and File > Open your MP3 file. Don't just click on the MP3 file and depend on Windows to help you.

Does it arrive? Does it play? Is there a blue waveform and does the green play sound meter bounce?

Re: HELP using Audacity for science project

<<<which sticks make the most sound?>>> Are you guessing that's the point of the exercise, or did he formally say that's what he was doing? That's important because the goal determines the research map. I'll wear my engineering hat for a second and ask how he's controlling for human muscles. I can h...

Re: Having two identically named files makes 1.3.6 crash

<<<In Audacity 1.2.6 it is possible to have two versions of a recording with the same file name.>>> But not in Windows--or at least not in Windows and the same folder. Windows makes you think you have the same filename by hiding the extensions. Thus MyMusic and MyMusic can appear at the same time, b...

Re: reducing MP3 file size

<<<Exploring shows me that the bit rate in iTunes is 1411 kbps instead of 128.>>> Right. The object is to create the original work in as high a quality and bitrate as possible and then let iTunes import the work using its internal preferences and compression. On Windows, it's probably iTunes > Edit ...
