Re: How Can I View EQ Settings Of A Project?

My Effects > Equalization seems to hang on to the last known good curve seemingly forever—or until I change it. It's had Low Rolloff on there for a week, through multiple restarts and a machine backup. What happens if you just open up Audacity, Generate noise (or something) and Effect > Equalization...

Re: scarlett solo studio & audacity for dubbing

My harmonica sounds a bit "thin" or "tinny" You should look for and turn off Windows sound processing. https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/faq_recording_troubleshooting.html#enhancements The processing is there to help with voices in conferencing or chat. It hates music. I had t...

Re: mixing audacity with pics

While there are odd techniques for melting graphics and sound together, the simplest way is find a video editor and throw stills at it over a sound track. Export in MP4.

Rode NT-USB and MacBook Air MBAs do have a fan. I thought for a long time my Air didn't and then one day I overloaded FireFox. More open tabs than one person aught to have. The machine started to get warm and the tiny fan went on. .....eeeeeEEEEEEE. I would not be good for that to happen in the mid...

just recording a book as a favor for a friend, and maybe a couple more for other friends if this works out OK.

Oh. One more. I don't know if ACX has provision to submit a test. Their requirements change a bit over time. If you find out, please post back.
