We need to address another problem. Your error is not 0.6 dB. That's a percent scale. That's 0.6 proportion or 60%, given that full up is 100%. You're losing half your signal which is 6.0 dB. That's a magic number. Fairly standard things in the analog world cause 6 dB errors. Bad terminations on a b...

<<<And I don't get the clip light on the front of the M-Audio! I'm not stupid>>> But wouldn't you feel stupid if that's what was wrong? We're flying blind from thousands of miles away. It doesn't pay well to ignore any possibility. <<<Yes I installed the latest driver (release date: 22.08.2008, bran...

<<<guglielmucci >>> What a great name. Mine means herder of goats. Does your name mean anything? The sound is probably still there. Audacity will not display it for you. Click on the black down arrow to the left of the timeline and select Waveform dB. That will produce a waveform that will not get l...

<<<So yeh i'm not quite sure what to do>>> Do you know why the headset was in the bottom of the closet? It sounds like you're listening to the little amplifier inside the mouthpiece (which will generate hissing noise if you have it up far enough) and the actual microphone electret element behind the...

<<<just wondering if the imported mp3 has to do with anything with the file size?>>> No, but the export parameters do. In 1.2, you can reset the MP3 export bit rate in the Preferences window. In 1.3, it's part of the export dialog. Totally convert the show to mono for an automatic reduction to half ...

<<<The driver version 2.18.0004 released 30 Jul 08 was the culprit.>>>

Hello, and welcome to Windows.

Glad you got it working.

<<<(1) The song is played back in a fraction of a second>>> That's what happens when you import a song that Audacity doesn't recognize. You need to convert the song to WAV or MP3 in an outside software package. Audacity has no idea what Windows Media is. Your Google search is WMA to WAV converter. A...

You're probably listening to the automatic gain control inside the camcorder trying to follow the volume variations of the band. Most built-in microphones don't follow bass notes too well because what most people want is Uncle Ted talking on his birthday and he has no bass notes in his voice. If you...

Please note that Mr. Mike has the blue and the red backwards. The hot signal is applied to the two ends of the control. The middle is a slider (officially the "wiper" connection) and selects any value between the shield (zero) and the maximum signal from the turntable depending on rotation...

No, it's the editing. First make sure you don't have any DC or battery voltage on your show. Effect > Normalize > Remove DC level. If you zoom waaaaaaaaay into the end of the clip on the timeline, you'll see that the tone consists of blue up and down waves. You get the click or pop when the wave mot...
