Somebody was a busy pixie. Given the high MEGO factor (and your show is under 2G), that looks like it would work. You would have to be pretty dedicated, though, and want that crashed show pretty bad. People who couldn't get their lame version right need not apply. I am heartened by the note that a l...

Actually, this brings up a rather odd problem. I don't actually edit anything in Audacity. Almost everything I use it for is Input/Output. Capture, Export, Playback, and on rare occasion, cutting simple pieces out of a performance or snugging up the ends. I almost never answer editing questions beca...

If you open up the MID file, doesn't it play by itself? So what you really need is a program to record the Mac output while the performance is playing. I use WireTap to do that on My Mac quickly and easily, but that cost money. You can use SoundFlower to do the same thing from a free Apple download-...

What's going on is you're directly managing the AU files. Only the AUP file is supposed to do that. The AUP or Audacity Project Manager deals with lining up all the little AU files and produces the graphics. If you have no AUP file, you have no show. If you've been messing around inside the _DATA fo...

<<<Basically you can't import Midi music directly into Audacity.>>> What he said. MIDI isn't music. MIDI is a list of instructions. You have to have software or hardware that understands the instructions and then the software or hardware produces the music. That's one of the MIDI problems. If you fe...

Tradition has it the Windows Control key worked like the Apple Command (or Apple) key. My Paste command is Apple-V. Alt / Option and Control keys came later and didn't appear on the early keyboards. The control key was a big deal in OS-X because of its UNIX background. When I'm in a "terminal&q...

OK, that's different. iTunes files are also protected under the FairPlay Rights Management System. The way around that is to create a playlist from the songs you want to use and burn the playlist to a CD. Then Import the CD back into iTunes with iTunes import conversions set to WAV or MP3.
