Audacity can only record from one thing, so you have to arrange to mix all your sounds before Audacity. This isn't easy, or sometimes causes problems. There is a poster whose show is a mix of multiple sound sources and complex sound pathways. He started having feedback (mum mum mum mum) sounds from ...

Your mic and Audacity are going to pick up everything, including noises we can't hear very well, or at all. The Kitchen Table Studio is a lot better at echoes than refrigerator noises.

Export a WAV of each raw reading and save it in a safe place. Edit a copy. Do it again for your ACX posting even though you need to post MP3 to them.

FanNoise FanNoise FanNoise FanNoiseFanNoi seFanNoise ..... In their application, they do very well. The problem is using t...

I suppose it can be used to reduce some environmental noises like meows, but I imagine it wouldn't be very effective. No, but maybe not the the reason you think. Noise Reduction doesn't take into account perceived loudness. If you have relatively well-behaved microphone noise (gentle spring rain in...
