Yes. I've been calling that "perfect" overdubbing, where you hear a theatrical mix of your live voice and the backing track. There are some restrictions. You can't listen to the computer. You have to listen to the sound mixer, audio interface, or microphone. Screen Shot 2021-03-17 at 07.57...

Probably not. What he said. These aren't single, very brief ticks of digital error. There are entire words in the presentation behind a wall of trash. It doesn't look like spectral editing is going to help, either. It's broad-band multi-pitch. I get a roughly similar sound errors when I try to hand...

Most likely it is just one, or a few tiny sections of the file that are faulty. ACX Check measures the whole show and then reports the quietest portion. So if you created an absolutely perfect book chapter but then jammed on a couple of seconds of Generate > Silence, the whole chapter will most lik...

An hour at perfect quality WAV (Microsoft) 16-bit (Stereo CD Quality) comes in at 635 MB. That's the base-line quality I use for everything unless there's a reason not to. Internet services are almost always compressed and squashed to a lesser quality, sometimes much less, but storing them in CD qua...

Audacity preserves any sound that goes over 100% (0dB) as long as the show is open and Audacity is running. There are some tools, filters, and effects that accidentally create overload and you need to be able to fix that before the production goes out the door. My vote is for Effect > Limiter. Set f...

The audiobook mastering suite is a collection of tools that work well together. You need to use them all, in order, and don't add any in the middle. https://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/AudiobookMasteringSuite.jpg Can you get the peak light on the Pyle to come on, even when shouting? Never blow i...

Cool. That's a cousin to the Scarlett Solo. Assuming one XLR microphone. Turn Input 2 all the way down. Phantom On assuming your microphone needs it. Output knob probably controls your headphone volume. I'd be surprised if it affected the Audacity signal. Adjust Input 1 up until the light just turns...

bitrate, bitrate method In short, everything that can be automatically checked without a human. You can check Peak, RMS, and Noise at home with ACX-Check. If you're in the recommended mono (one blue wave) instead of stereo, you won't have channel mixing problems. Bitrate Method should be Constant. ...

I believe DC is 0 as long as the waveform is not 'off-centre' DC Offset is a little magic. You can have a profound inequality between up and down blue waves as long as everything settles to absolute zero when the performer shuts up. I can identify a news presenter just by the oddity of his waves. N...

Are you using Audacity 2.4.2 and did you get it from here?

Audacity doesn't export .ink sound files instead of MP3.
