Audacity Forum

I somehow solved the monitor issue a few months ago and got a latency problem instead. You can get that if you started monitoring the computer instead of the soundcard. The computer sound is always going to be "one computer late"—the sound has to go into Audacity and then turn around and ...

The H2 is a legacy machine. I wonder if the newer machines (H2n) "know" when the system is about to go down and closes the file. The system should be able to figure this out. The declining battery charge is pretty clear—something has to put that message on the screen—and just before the sy...

Effect > Change Speed. If they're both wrong, that's the tool. It gracefully changes the playback speed until you get what you want without too much sound damage.

Did you do this intentionally? By accident? Are you helping out somebody?

When you finish with your mastering, you should have a sound recording that passes ACX Check. The mastered file you posted will not pass ACX Check.

Remote storage seems to be a gift from the angels, but digital networks all come with transmission management. Collision Detection, Retry Timing, Routing Delays, etc. All that takes time and all the corrections change constantly. Contrast that with local storage where Audacity needs to record someth...

What are you calling it? You can get very odd conditions if you violate Filename Hygiene. Upper Case Letters, lower case letters, numbers, -dash-, and _underscore_. Those are the only safe characters to use in filenames. The Windows people have an additional list of forbidden words from the DOS era ...

I was just wondering if there was any way for me to remove the music No. Not if the music and voice are mixed in the same track. You picked one of the non-recoverable errors. Rescue One. Redo the interview. Rescue Two. The Hollywood version of the rescue is write down the words and have an actor re...

noise floor was at -67.0 dB and RMS passed.

After you apply the tools and got all the good readings, export a WAV sound file and post that.

Are you starting to run out of space on your drive? When Windows deletes something, it doesn't actually delete the whole work. It just deletes the address of where the work is on the drive. The space becomes available for new recording, but Windows doesn't use it immediately. It uses fresh drive spa...
