Re: Using Audacity with 4 mics.

I’ll just stick with the current mixer and following your instructions on this: This was just an example of what you can do with your current mixer. You don't actually gain anything by doing that and you're just going to jam all the voices back together into one pile later anyway. You can't record ...

Re: Using Audacity with 4 mics.

I know there's an "authenticity" thing about having a podcast too good. It starts sounding like one of those evil broadcasters, but there is a limit. I haven't posted it yet, but there is a public video performance with wind noise so bad nobody could make out the words. "Jeff must be ...

Re: Using Audacity with 4 mics.

I mentioned a nice quiet room several times in there. That can be hard to do, but pays enormous dividends in production. There was a promotion and product advertisement company that didn't want to continue using an actual high quality, soundproof studio for their work and they decided to start shoot...

Re: Using Audacity with 4 mics.

We did publish a section on multi-channel recording—more than 2-channel stereo.

Re: Importing labels: "one or more saved labels could not be read"

Labels have had troubles with punctuation marks. Try a test without the colons.

Re: receive error codes when hit record

What are you recording? That's what Audacity says when it can't figure out what you want to record.

Re: Using Audacity with 4 mics.

Behringer Ultravoice Xm8500 Dynamic Nothing wrong with the microphone. How were you going to mount it? Hand-held? That can get noisy, especially with four inexperienced people doing it. Would this be a good choice? That's a larger stereo mixer than what you have now. It's still no more than stereo,...

Re: Using Audacity with 4 mics.

Then we should get down further into the weeds. What's the microphone(s)? If you mean create one mono show out of a mix of all the performers, yes. Leave all four of the PAN control in the middle and watch the bouncing sound meters when people are talking. There is also one other item. Make sure you...

Re: Using Audacity with 4 mics.

Hoping I can find a tutorial video on how to mix multiple mics onto one track. That's a snap. The hard part is getting the four individual voice tracks in the first place. How were you going to do that? You can use the PAN controls on the sound mixer to push microphone 1 and microphone 2 to the lef...

Re: Missing audio data block file(s)

I changed the name of my audacity project You can only change the name of the Project inside Audacity, not in the file system. opened straight after and it said error data not found. Right. Because it was looking for the old _DATA folder name burned into the AUP file. Like This. http://kozco.com/te...
