I can't be in the same room as the PC that Audacity is running on, remember? I do forget you're using the H4 as a stand-alone recorder. In that case, it's a little more involved. Do the "ooooo" thing and announce where it is on the H4 meters. Nobody will stop breathing if you don't hit it...

use 2.3.0 to 'P&R', It's not the best idea to use abbreviations in a question (or an answer). Present and Record? it is almost Midnight here Nobody's shocked about time zone offsets (he said, from Pacific Standard Time). This is actually a worse problem for Audacity than many other forums. The ...

I don't know that this is obvious anywhere in the instructions, but you can install Audacity inside a folder.

There's a difference between /Library/Application Support and ~/Library/Application Support. You want the one wit...

Don't do that.

Are you trying to run both Audacity programs at the same time? I don't think you ever said how you were doing this. The later Audacity programs made you Effect > Add/Remove Plugins and Analyze > Add Remove Plugins before new effects would become visible, even if you installed them correctly. We are ...

One odd note: If you have something you like, hang onto it with white knuckles. It's your show and you have to live with it.

It's worth a side trip to Chris's Compressor. That's an add-on with integrated compression and limiting. It's design goal was make it so Chris could listen to opera in the car. So he wasn't interested in very much distortion, either. With a change of the first variable Compress ratio from 0.5 to 0.7...

case that most users will never experience You are a celebrity unicorn. I'm sure there are occasional posters with similar, very much simplified versions of this problem, but I've never seen anything like this application. People do run into problems when they try to adapt Audacity to industrial ap...
