Re: No Woman, No Cry

some cat travels around with a pallet of 'em in the bed of his pickup. I've done that [waving hand].

Re: Add "voice" to the MP3 export presets

No confusion involved! You should spend more time on the forum. New User Audiobook People go from Facebooking their kids in Schenectady between cups of tea to sorting what RMS means in an AudioBook technical voice submission. Yes, you do have to know that. Everything is already in heavy MEGO territ...

Re: How do i fix audio drops?

Audacity 2.2.2 2.2.2 had some Project Management Problems. You should upgrade to 2.3.0, which, at this writing is current. https://www.audacityteam.org/ moonlight sonata You are live performing into the microphone? Violin? Zither? Sackbut?

Re: No Woman, No Cry

+1 on the idea of starting with small projects. Travel and audiobooks don't go well. ACX puts a lot of stress on your chapters matching. In general they don't like distractions. You have good natural rhythm, so you didn't fall into another New User problem: Every Word is a Gem. I wish I had saved it...

Screen Shot 2018-12-02 at 03.55.29.png The paper towel roll is not an accident. It does a terrific job of not transmitting desk vibrations to the H4, assisted by the slap and vibration-reducing moving pad. It gets the H4 closer to my face and is available at any Piggly Wiggly, 7-Eleven or Tesco. Koz

Re: No Woman, No Cry

The moving blankets don't travel well. Those are for a fixed install. You did throw a surprise in there. It's a lot harder to get good recordings when you can't control the room. It's another talent. Wander around listening. Note the H4n doesn't have vibration suppression. It's good not to ignore no...

Re: How can I get louder music to 'look louder' along wave line while recording?

while recording?
You never actually hit what you're doing. What are you recording, with what and from where? Some microphones and systems are not adjustable in Audacity while recording, some are.

Re: Can't record anything from the mike

Thanks for getting me to check everything one more time.
That usually fails because the poster checks exactly the same things every time. Branch out a bit. What else could cause that problem? Glad you found it.

Re: Can I create two cursor placeholders?

Audacity doesn't have "markers." However, we do have Labels. You can place labels anywhere, title them and they become sticky or magnetic. You can also label a region.

Re: Audacity User Manual index of subjects

I hesitate to do that because I know what a pain in the bum it is, but in rapid succession two different people couldn't sort where Chains had gone. "full MIDI support". That's much more of a serious problem. In the user's mind, there is no "partial support." There is, however, a...
