Re: Static on Voice of Phone Interview

I don't think that's plain overload although you could try the "Pad" setting on the H5. That's intended to reduce recording volume as a protection measure when you apply high volume to the H5. You should be able to boost the volume back up with the H5 volume controls for that channel. This...

Re: MAC OS CATALINA

my voice sound like Barry White. The performance is longer, too, right? It didn't just go down in pitch? In General, that happens when you record with different digital technical standards than you're playing back. The system is supposed to be able to sort that out. For example, most editors and pl...

Re: most valued microphone for voiceovers?

We're going off in all directions because we don't know what the show is.

What is it?

Re: most valued microphone for voiceovers?

One of the producers at work regularly turned in good quality voice work and I asked how he did it. He said he put the video camera in the back of his car, drove somewhere quiet and recorded everything in the car.

Re: most valued microphone for voiceovers?

If you're going to appear on camera, it's not the worst idea to use the same microphone for both and just change to a soundproof and echo-free room for the voiceovers. That changes the establishing background sound without making you sound like a different person (or worse, trying to record in the k...

Re: Passing RMS on Audacity 2.1.1

Next, I upgraded to 2.3.3 Audacity. I think that's a mistake. Once you start a job, Do Not Make Any Changes until you finish. Now you're back at square one getting the tools to work right—and they're different tools. I hope you didn't tell them a completion date. Failed RMS. That's one example. If ...

Re: What causes delay in recording on Audacity

You don't have to dig into System Preferences. There's a shortcut little fan symbol in the upper right of the desktop.

Re: What causes delay in recording on Audacity

Do you report login information to the Systems People? Can people other than your classes log in?

Do you know anybody that has a successful Audacity running at home? What happens if they just wander into your office with their machine and make a recording?
