How would we hear one of your successful shows?

I'm out. I think that's too far gone. I think you're knocking on the door of Hollywood "magic." Transcribe the voices to paper scrips and have actors read them in a quiet room or studio. If you are one of the voices, that's one less actor. Have you ever heard of simul-speak? You listen to ...

You might want to revisit Chris's Compressor. 1.2.6 is current last I looked. I use it with stiffer compression than is normal. The first control value is Compress ratio and I change that from the default 0.5 to a stiffer 0.77. When I do that, the shows come out very close to the local radio station...

The AU files are about six seconds long and if it's a stereo show, they alternate Left and Right sound. How long is the show? You see where I'm going with th...

Audacity can do that when it can't figure out how to play to your speakers or headphones. It can do that if you have Wireless Headphones, for one common example. Go into Windows control panels or setups and see if your headphones or speakers are listed there. There have been several recent postings ...
