Re: Unlistenable noises

This is a common problem with people reading for audiobooks for the first time. They can get the right volume, or the low background noise, but not both. They need Effect > Noise Reduction, too. Please note Noise Reduction works in two steps. Drag-select a short part of the show with no performance ...

Re: Taking too long to open projects, jamming a lot

There was a recent posting from someone on "paper news" media about doing an update to their system.

"I had to close about 35 tabs and the three spreadsheets I was working on. I don't remember the last time I saw my screen go black..."

I need to back and find that one.

Re: Audio video synch mysteries

About a frame per minute? Pretty much everybody can see the sync errors about five minutes in? That's roughly the error you get when you assume NTSC runs at 30 instead of its real oddball-wacky framerate. If that's it, you should be able to apply a correction of 1000/1001 to either one and they shou...

Re: Yamaha Keyboard Connection Issue

I use the headphone connection and split it between a large sound system and a connection that I record. My Yamaha keyboard does not send sound down the USB connection, It's MIDI-only,

Re: Recording bugged after Microsoft update

the Scarlett has been checked out by the local sound experts and declared in god working order. The Solo is good, but maybe not that good. I'm not a Windows elf, but it's fairly common for a Windows update to kill some devices as a, usually correct, security move. Audacity will not record anything ...

Re: Can someone give me advice?

YouTube the voice seems to be somewhat cleaner and more...neat. We can't see you waving your hands across multiple time zones, so we usually recommend you post or reference Before and After samples and we can tell you how to get there, or at least get close. Posting URLs works, but we need both sid...

Re: Taking too long to open projects, jamming a lot

First thing I would do is complete an upgrade to Audacity 2.2.2. 2.2.1 had a serious save error. https://www.audacityteam.org/download/windows/ How long are the shows? How many other apps do you have running at the same time as Audacity? Zero is good. How full is the drive? Do you have at least half...

Re: Playback Recording

That's too fuzzy. We need the narrative. "I'm recording my voice with a USB microphone...."
