Re: Bad audio quality when exporting to WAV

Do you have any line level device like an iPod or portable CD player? Can you round up a 1/8" stereo male to male cable and plug the iPod headset connection into the Line-In of the Mac--assuming your not on an Air. Change the Apple preferences so you're recording from the Built in Line-In inste...

Re: Problems importing from iTunes

<<<In the meantime, is there a way to create it into an AAC file?>>> It's already an AAC file, that's the trouble.

Re: Problems importing from iTunes

First, the song has copy protection on it and second, it almost certainly is encoded and compressed in AAC audio instead of MP3. Audacity will not manage AAC audio files. Create a playlist with your song in it and burn the playlist to a music CD. Then bring the CD back in to iTunes with the iTunes i...

Re: 2 Mac books, 2 max audio input levels!

It is recommended that you leave Audacity alone and trash the preference file instead. If you do that, Audacity will start ...

Re: Splitting file by specifying time?

Direct entry of times and offsets is a future feature request. Once you get used to it in a video editor, you're spoiled rotten. <<<easier way to find if I the end is at the correct place>>> You've never had to play through the whole thing. Pick the "in" point with the mouse and label it (...

Re: Narration on Open Office

I think I missed that. You want to record somebody else's PowerPoint narration, you want to record a live narration that somebody else can place in their PowerPoint, or you want to produce a narration that you play along with a PowerPoint presentation? By "PowerPoint," I mean either one. I...
