Re: Lost association between source and .aup when moved fold

There's too many variations. I'm starting to get a headache. I mean you should probably try to recreate as much as possible the original installation with the exact names and locations of all the folders. An Audacity Project is a Editing Production Environment with clouds of files. The AUP file trie...

Re: anyway to level out 2 different audios (urgent)

I know you're in a hurry, but I'm reading this three times. Every time Fred talks he's hot and every time Jill speaks she's low? Did I get that? The compressor tool is your only hope. Effect > Compressor. It's a volume compressor and manager, not a digital compressor. Pick a ten second segment where...

Re: Pan Effect Filter?

This is me working with you. <<<individual pan tools within a performance >>> You mean change the dialog without affecting the orchestration in the background, right? You can't do that. If you have any sort of effect or orchestration in the background, it's going to swish back and forth with the env...

Re: Total Newbie - Recording length and other stuff question

Let's do the recording length last. If you look at your sound card under a good strong light, are you plugging your mixer into Line-In (two fans pointing in) or Mic-In (little picture of a microphone--maybe pink). Are you on a Laptop? The turntables only have one stereo sound cable plus the little t...

Re: need to recover files

<<<So even the saving part - which involves converting to differnet file types etc - is a bit challenging for me.>>> It's challenging for everybody which is why so many people lose shows. "Save" doesn't produce a sound file. It produces an editing production environment with many, many fil...

Re: How to change the pitch of the vocals?

Since changing the pitch of a vocal track is a snap, the real question is how to split off the vocals and then recombine them. Center Pan Remover (Voice Remover--Search the page for "Center Pan Remover") http://audacityteam.org/download/nyquistplugins Voice Isolator (Opposite of Center Pan...

Re: Strange problem with exporting mono files as stereo

On a completely wild guess, is Audacity still the normal 2 channel stereo show you started out with? I've had one install of Audacity change without my help. Audacity went nuthouse on me and it took a while to catch up. "Wait, I didn't set it for four channels..." Preferences > Audio I/O >...

Re: Problem with record (please help!!!)

I'm not ignoring you and your English is fine. I just don't know what's wrong. You opened up a music track and now you want to play that piece while you record your own voice. Right? My guess is you are recording the music twice by accident. This is easy to do on a Windows machine. When you play the...

Re: Audacity skips and freezes on playback

<<<Does anyone know what is going on?>>> Yes. You can't move Audacity Projects. Unless you Exported As WAV several times in the production process to get a single stable sound file, you are stuck with an Audacity Project which consists of an AUP supervisory file, a _DATA folder with billions of litt...
