Let's get the basic mixer working. Plug the mic into channel 1. Gain at around 3:00 o'clock Compressor off The next 5 knobs at zero or in the middle. Bottom knob "Level" at around 3:00 o'clock. All the rest of the Level knobs across the bottom at infinity—all the way down. Aux Return at in...

Before you send it back. The UCA-202 is one of the devices I checked for Overdubbing. http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/peaveyUCA202Lenovo-650.jpg It will monitor the sound going both directions at the same time.

Audacity calls that overdubbing. https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/tutorial_recording_multi_track_overdubs.html Note one important restriction.

It takes me between 30 and 40 seconds to do all that, so once you get used to it, it's not terrible. That's like the...

OK. Here we go loop de loop. Have you ever used Noise Reduction? Have you ever installed a custom settings into equalization? Stop here and we'll take that in a separate post. ===================== Export the raw reading as WAV and save it in a nice safe place. Edit a copy of the raw reading. When t...
