Re: can I get a "full" heavy metal electric guitar sound by using Audacity?

We will note that In Real Life you can tune the feedback by managing the position of the guitar and the additional tones during the sustain. That's theater and is going to be missing unless you are playing the guitar. Only so much you can do with somebody else's performance.

Re: Reading ACX Check

I can see them getting upset about the music. That's instant copyright issues.

Everything else sounds OK.

Re: Dropped Audio During Recording

Entertainment production is real time, no taking a break or shuffle memory around a little to make your spreadsheet or Photoshop fit. If hardware memory or clean hard drive space is not available right then , the show...

Re: Why is it that sometimes none of the settings record properly 2 days in a row?

I try every possible combination of the alternatives to the above settings, and have the same problem. Two possibilities: The data stream—web content is damaged, or something you're doing between captures is messing up the sound pathways. Computers don't much like recording internet content because...

Re: Taking long to open (sometimes unresponsive)

First the obvious. Close everything and Apple > Shut Down... Not Restart. Full Shutdown. See how long the little spinning daisy hangs before the machine actually shuts down. Wait and bit and Start.

electric guitar solo or riff from Soundtrap.com or Bandlab.com
Too many fuzzy references. Export a WAV, 10-second stereo sample (or twenty second mono) of the guitar sound you want to fatten.

Scroll down from a forum text window > Attachments > Add Files.

Re: Sliding tracks up & down a timeline

For moving a whole track up / down as you described koz, you don't have to use the Time Shift Tool. The track can be dragged up / down whichever tool is currently being used. Are you changing the order of the tracks top to bottom? I thought the poster wanted earlier and later adjustments. That's Ti...
