Audacity Forum

I really don't know who to reach out to or where to post. This works. The forum elves see all the topics and postings. The end of the audio sounds like everything is in super slow motion with super deep voices and sounds. You described two different problems. What's the show? Are you creating a pod...

Audacity has to be pointed to a real playback device and it has to be relatively simple. The headphone output of your laptop may be a simple device and work perfectly, but a headset connection (headphones and microphone built-in) may not. What is your playback system? My Mac laptop built-in speakers...

When you see public restaurant interviews or theatrical shoots, those are many times staged to avoid problems like this. That famous restaurant scene in When H...

Please don't double (or triple) post. New User postings are moderated to help suppress spam and naughty posts. Your post will apper after a forum elf reads it. It's probably not just the ball clicks right? It's also the two players yelling at each other? You may be able to use one of the vinyl click...

I'm not a Windows elf, but if that were my machine, I would so be making protection copies of the music on a second drive or backup system. I see Skype in your system. Skype is famous for "having its way" with your computer sound services and not asking. Do you leave it waiting for a call ...
