That would totally work. It's a little more effort, but you can transfer an Exported WAV file from one machine to the other and mix your brains out. They don't use consumer PCs, but a variation of that technique is how the major movie studios shoot sound. You know that striped clapboard that the mov...

Very simple. http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2102970 Or longer equivalent. Plug one of those into the earphone output of the unit and into the Line-In of your Mac. It's the two little black arrows pointing into a circle. Apple > System Preferences > Hardware > Sound > Input > L...

Audacity will not run into a full or badly fragmented drive (in the case of Windows). If you have an 80GB hard drive, you start looking for other places to put stuff at 72GB. One or two GB left free is just this side of having OS-X crash. You would not like that. However, I would still exercise the ...

It's good to know how Audacity Projects work. The AUP project file is a laundry list of all ingredients you need to make your show. It's almost in English and you can read it in TextEdit. Here's a simple one... http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/aup1.jpg Since there isn't any audio inside the AUP file, ...
