<<<Win98 SE>>> I have a number of machines running Windows 2000. It's the stable daddy to WinXP and it doesn't make you call in each license for "verification" (we assume for your safety and convenience). I wonder what you need to do if your WinXP machine never touches the internet. No dou...

I was going to send you to the OS-X System Preferences panel, but I see you've already been there. Unless you know this is possible--that you've seen it done before, I'm going with you can't do that at all. It was a conscious design decision on Apple's part to make it really difficult to run the inp...

There is a pathway that goes from your sound device (microphone?) through the soun...

This is terrific for testing since the meters will show you what you'r...

It probably wasn't a standard Microsoft Windows WAV file. That's what Audacity does when it doesn't understand what to do. 48000-16 bit or 44100-16 bit stereo Windows WAV files will slide right into Audacity. Most MP3 files will work, too, so that's another way out. The desperation method would be t...

Any laptop with a little glowing Apple on it except the last one. They all have excellent Line-In connections and will interface directly to most if not all field mixers including the mixers with optical digital outputs. I shot all the voice segments for a theatrical short with a quiet room, mic, mi...

A few more English words, please. All tracks are the same digital format? Uncompressed (WAV)? Both tracks are stereo? Do you know who did the mix and was it professionally mixed instead of just clicking on "Mix" in a program somewhere? If it was professionally mixed, your chances of succes...
