Audacity Forum

All seems to be work now.

How did you get there? This is a forum. Users helping each other.

So just plugging in the turntable via USB seems to work OK? Did the Focusrite say it can work with a Mac? Did it come with software drivers? Some multi-channel interfaces present themselves as groups of stereo channels, not all 18 at the same time. So that would give you 1 and 2 (stereo left and rig...

Stop using Windows? There was a note a while back that Windows doesn't support higher data rates. That's probably worth a check.

A note here. The first consideration for recording anything is to do it in a quiet room. Can you tell your computer is on just by listening? That can limit your choice of microphone. USB microphones shouldn't get much more than about six feet (2M) away from the computer. I have a good sound treated ...

ACX Audiobook Testing It's not likely somebody is going to sit through 13 hours of work. But they don't have to. Quality Control has rules and techniques.

That's when you go to a specific System location and kill a session file. Start with Go at the top of your desktop. Screen Shot 2019-09-20 at...

Emergency Mac Shutdown It's wreaking havoc on my system and I can't get it to stop. The desperation method is hold your power button for an extended push.

While remembering that the quality of noise reduction is highly dependent on how closely the noise profile matches the actual noise in the track that you are processing. I'm thinking about the audiobook recorded for weeks on the same microphone in the same room on a laptop you have to move regularl...

I am astounded by the quality of the sound it can produce on its small inbuilt speaker(s). Still, I can't believe booming bass on a tiny speaker is going to go well. That's the first place I'd look for distortion problems. I would reference many USB microphones whose sub-bass trash can be louder th...

Cool. So now all we need is:
