Re: Accidentally deleted the project data folder

How did you start the new show after you deleted the original AUP file and _DATA folder? Did you [X] close the timeline and press record to start a new show? If you didn't close Audacity, I'm pretty sure it thinks it's still working on the original show. We should wait for someone more familiar with...

Re: Accidentally deleted the project data folder

Which Audacity version are you using? Help > About (I think). I'm looking for a number. Did you close Audacity between the time you recorded the new show and the old show? Did you call the new show the same name? Audacity 232 for Mac gets very upset at me if I do that. Screen Shot 2019-10-26 at 18.0...

Effects has a light gray dividing line roughly half-way down. Noise Gate is below the line.

Re: Issue with a hiss/whine in the background of some recordings

I don’t like the feeling that I’m getting away with something You might work on suppressing that feeling. If you have a good voice and quiet room, you can make a surprisingly modest microphone work. I have not given up the good fight to make an iPhone record a production. "Here, let me whip ou...

Re: Issue with a hiss/whine in the background of some recordings

This is one of the sound tests I performed when I got it out of the box. The recorder produces perfect quality, stereo WAV sound files (If you tell it to). This is cut and no other effects. It is an MP3 conversion to get it on the forum. This is the workup including dropping a book a couple of times...

Re: Issue with a hiss/whine in the background of some recordings

Nobody wrote it can't be more than one problem, either. Those will give seriously magic symptoms. There's a troubleshooting technique where you divide the system in half and see which half the problem follows. Work down from there. If you do that and the problem is still there in both cases , then i...

Re: Issue with a hiss/whine in the background of some recordings

If you're reading a phone, did you turn off the "telephone" part so it doesn't try to connect to a cell tower? It radiates when it does that.

Re: Issue with a hiss/whine in the background of some recordings

The whine is faint, fading in & out over about 10 seconds.
If this of any help, it's at different frequencies on the left & right channels ...

Re: Issue with a hiss/whine in the background of some recordings

Narnia Storytelling (scientific wild-ass guess): How are you reading the script? Phone or Tablet? Nobody uses paper as in my illustration. I can imagine screen electrical radiation doing that. Do you occasionally change the position of the tablet? Does the noise problem get worse as you get the tabl...
