Re: Total Audacity noob here

I have only hands-on with an older H4 which doesn't even belong to me. Now you're into cranking through the reviews and other forum opinions. It's pretty unusual for us to recommend hardware. It's so easy to have a bad experience particularly with microphones which depend on environment and user exp...

Re: audacity deleted my files?

My laptop is an HP, so therefore it likes to crash on me a lot. I would so totally start there. There are tools to check the integrity of your hard drive and memory. If you have external devices, microphones, "USB Other," a ratty connection can cause very serious Windows problems. There i...

Re: Help with fixing noise

One note as you get into this. Do Not use MP3 for anything. MP3 sound format creates sound damage and you can't stop it. Export all your work in WAV (Microsoft) 16-bit . Raw announcing and final Edit Masters. Way at the end of the process, if you need to for posting to the internet or if the client ...

Re: Help with fixing noise

I know this seems like a Help Desk, but it is a forum. Users helping each other. If you get the library thing to work, Write It Down. Take pictures.

Re: Help with fixing noise

I hope you're not bleeding too much. Seems like a lot of post-process work for issues that could simply be removed by doing things the correct way initially. Ding! The red flag goes up whenever some one posts with the phrase "Help me clean up." It doesn't have to be rocket surgery, either....

Re: Help with fixing noise

This was a hardware review which mentions a Rode SmartLav+ at around £40. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1WqlRx2siQ The "+" is important as the original SmartLav had problems. That's the little microphone (lavalier) you clip to your shirt. The way they use it is to plug it into a Zoom H1...

Re: Help with fixing noise

http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/iPod-MicStand-500.jpg People got spoiled rotten by talking into their phone at chest level whlle they charge down the street. That depends on the phone's ability to straighten out all the errors as you go and the person at the other end being not any too particula...
