Re: mixing mono and stereo tracks

And if you get really fancy-pants, use the Time Shift Tool (two sideways black arrows) to overlap them a little and use the fade tools (Effect > Fade-In and Effect > Fade-Out). Pick the last few words at the end of a sentence and gradually Music Up.

Re: Having a Popping or Clicking Issue

Do you have the game running while you do this? Audacity is not crazy about sharing sound services with anything else, games, Skype, chat, etc. So the natural response to interference problems: is, yes, that's correct. As you found, interference problems don't have to be constant. They can be "...

Re: Poor sound on export

There may be other things to try. I said there are very serious problems with that clip that most people may not be able to hear.

Re: Behringer c-1u Condenser USB mic

I have a C-1, not a C-1U. It's the analog version of the same mic. When paired with a Behringer UM2 preamp, it seems to work OK. Like posted many times in this thread, USB microphones have "gentle" volume. Normal volume would be ideal, but if you get a little too expressive with your perfo...

Re: Poor sound on export

increase the volume I turned off clipping. You selected "Allow Clipping?" Normally, Amplify will stop making sound louder if there is going to be any distortion. If you select "Allow Clipping" Amplify will make sound as loud as you want and if it distorts, that's OK. There is a ...

Re: Poor sound on export

The audio is badly distorted because it's too loud. And right there we part company. There is severe rumble distortion in parts of the performance that don't hit 100%. We need to pay attention to how you're listening. My sound system is full range and will hit earthquake sounds with no trouble. Thi...

Re: no clipping and issues track display

If you've been around for a while, you know we like part numbers and detail descriptions. Which microphones? Which mixer? How is the mixer connected to the computer? You didn't mention a digitizer anywhere. Are you trying to use the computer's built-in soundcard? You might get away with that with ea...

Re: 2.2.2 often unresponsive

passing information back and forth every time i press stop? No. Some of the cloud storage services take time to do their data management and if you have a computer already on the edge of not working right, Cloud Services extra effort could push it over the edge. Audio (and video) production doesn't...

Re: 2.2.2 often unresponsive

My last version of Audacity was 2.03 There is no 2.03 from Audacity. There was a 2.0.3. You may have a custom "foreign" version. They can have scrambled version numbers. What is Audacity 2.2.2 doing every time I press stop that it picks a random number between 0 and infinity to do? To do ...

Re: Poor sound on export

You may have stumped the band. You have very severe low pitch rumble in there similar to earthquake sounds. Nobody's concerned with the overload and clipping right? That part is normal and expected. It doesn't match anything I've heard before. That could be wind noise. I've heard outdoor productions...
