Audacity Forum

If you click on "Authorize" when it says that, the system will ask you for the name and password of an administrator for your system. If you type a valid one, it will let you move the file.

Those two tools are a little more involved and complicated than you would think. Try this. If you know where the click is (it's not much of a mystery. It's usually the biggest thing in the waveform), then select just the click spike waveform and then click Edit, Silence. Go back and play the clip th...

Can we assume you're on a PC? Would that be a good start?

You just sailed through two completely different ideas without stopping for breath. iTunes and YouTube play back at funny speeds, or iTunes Performances and YouTube Performances as captured and played by Audacity sound funny?

Zoom in and out (magnifying glass icons with + or - in them). <<<I am using Audacity to change the pitch >>> Select a portion of the w...

<<<32 bit floating.>>> 32-bit floating (whose real name is Single Precision Floating Point Value) is a much more accurate way to describe the translation from analog to digital. Straight 16 bit counts up from zero the same way you would count as if you were counting eggs. The problem is how to descr...

That's the difference between a Music CD and a Data CD. Anything you drag cold over to an empty CD will produce a Data CD--basically a thin, silvery hard drive. It doesn't have to be sound files. It can be Photoshop files or Excel spreadsheets. If you pull the work into iTunes or the music program o...
