Re: Understanding sound levels

You're making your own tiny soundproof studio. How long do you think he/you can stay in there? My guess is about five minutes before you have to come out and gasp for air. Are you air conditioned?

Re: Recording of a voice : a fuzzy, distant sound

I'm happy you got it to work. It sounds terrific.

I think everything sounds better in French especially as I don't speak French. "My arm is broken and my house is on fire" sounds wonderful in French.

Can you say that into your microphone and post it?

This is one Audacity Project or show.

They need to be sitting beside each other and have the same name. Double click the Project Manager AUP file and the Project should open.

Just recorded an hour long stereo file from 2 USB mics

Re: URGENT: Error message "Error opening sound device.

Re: Noise/Hissing

Noise Reduction is a two-step process. It's not like many of the other effects. You have to find and drag-select an example of "pure noise." Effect > Noise Reduction > Profile. Then select the song, Effect > Noise Reduction: Type the settings > OK. https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/noise...
