Re: Low Levels on Audacity from Windows 10

if I go too high, it starts to distort and feedback with the playback volume. Maybe everybody missed that from the first post. I wonder if you're not recording a digital signal, but an analog signal from the machines speaker system. That's just a routing error. https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/t...

Re: Static on Voice of Phone Interview

Dueling posts.

The manual claims to be able to do this to two inputs and the question is preserving interviews—one voice.

Festival of options.

Again, assuming input mismatch is the problem. Fixing that would be my first shot. Thanks for the post.

Re: Static on Voice of Phone Interview

Screen Shot 2019-12-19 at 8.20.19.png I can't post the H5 manual. Too Big. It's on page 98 of my download PDF. This selection is intended to connect the H5 directly to a sound mixing console. This will give you a 20dB attenuation to prevent overload at the selected inputs. In My Opinion, the overlo...

Re: Static on Voice of Phone Interview

I like this product because you can record stereo and downmix to mono in Audacity if you choose. You could always do that just by choosing the right cable. That has nothing to do with the overload problem. Did you try the Pad H5 option? That may take care of it in a simple setting instead of purcha...

Re: MAC OS CATALINA

Audacity can do that if you change the number in the lower left by accident. In general it should be 44100 and it should match the number in preferences. You might change that once intentionally and see if it straightens up the performance. Audacity > Preferences > Quality > Default Sampling. That's...

Re: MAC OS CATALINA

1.1
The shift between video sound sample rates and Music CD audio rates is 1.088. Soooo close.

That doesn't tell me why Audacity recorded in one but is trying to play back in the other.

Audio CD rate is 44100
Video rate is 48000

Re: MAC OS CATALINA

You don't remember I do voice overs! I'm assuming your voice overs (voices-over?) are fine and you're doing something fancy which can explain a sudden oddball problem. If you're plain recording, that's not good news. at the 3.0 mark, and then at regular intervals, the audio breaks up. That's not go...

Re: MAC OS CATALINA

Obviously, you should stop recording that way. What were you recording? You may be able to fix this performance with Effect > Change Speed. Change Speed damages the sound least when applied. You may end with a usable track (but don't bet any money on it). If you get a track that's the right pitch, n...

Re: Static on Voice of Phone Interview

You're using my favorite technique. Not using the computer to record your show. You still have to pay attention to your connections.

Re: Passing RMS on Audacity 2.1.1

That upgrade put us back at the top of the message thread. Remember this?
I am submitting an audiobook audition and am having trouble passing the RMS
Are you applying a Chain or Macro to the work?
