Here's one a bit more modern. That's from one of the Matt and Tom videos. They're literally on the park bench but the voices are terrific and perfectly clear because they're using a radio-connected shotgun microphone with a dead cat windscreen. That's probably $2000 USD right there—that Matt's holdi...

..on live recording? Audacity will only do it later. Audacity doesn't do anything in real time. If you need real time processing, some recorders and most smartphones have the ability to live record with voice processing, echo suppression and noise reduction. Of course, then your show is going to so...

Downloaded file only prompts to be put into application folder.

Audacity usually only supports one "thing" per direction so being able to control both the headphone part of the headset and the speaker may be the worst problem. Plus the possibility of feedback between the speaker and the headset microphone. Do you have Skype in there, too? Skype used to...

You probably haven't got a usable recording. Select some of the feedback performance and Analyze > Plot Spectrum. The feedback tone might appear as one very tall spike.

I don't think this is a "fix" problem.

3.0.0 will be the first 64 bit version?

What he said. As long as you don't close Audacity, Edit > UNDO will bring you back to any place in the edit history. Audacity doesn't remember the edits, it just makes wholesale copies of the show as it goes. I read about a different editor which did remember the UNDO in its projects and the users c...

I have not updated to Mojave because Macs have been peeling off support for 32-bit applications and I still run some very desirable 32-bit applications. Audacity is a 32 bit app. I stopped at High Sierra. That seems to work OK.

There have been postings from people with Mojave trouble.
