Audacity Forum

With no further information than that, I'd say your player was doing it—or the playback pathway. If you messed with noise reduction and it didn't help—or even change, then it's likely the problem isn't in the sound file. Is it mono? Drag-select about 20 seconds of it, Export as WAV (Microsoft) 16-bi...

I always used the fuzzy values of 3GB and 6GB. That's where the WAV addressing scheme runs out of zot (technical term). Some legacy systems and services will not recognize a WAV file over 3GB. So, in my opinion, you should never plan on unconditionally stable WAV files over 3GB. I have a portable, p...

As you're cranking through tests, pay attention to changes that seemingly have nothing at all to do with the problem. I once followed a very highly respected consulting engineer around and watched him work. He did everything I would have done, except he wrote everything down and didn't make assumpti...

iCloud? Cloud Services? Any external drives and are any of them running out of space? You have textbook classic symptoms of running out of clear, usable drivespace.

Reinstalling Audacity doesn't reset Audacity. Audacity keeps settings and preferences in a different place so you can upgrade without putting all those changes in again. In Windows, you have the option of clicking a reset button during the install.

That's what happens when you scramble Overdubbing and Not overdubbing.

De-select Overdubbing > OK. Go back into the panel and select it again > OK.

Does that help?

I do have a headphone note. The MDR-7506s are terrific for showing you sound damage and problems before anybody else hears them.

But I can't use them for enjoying a movie in bed. I'm not interested in hearing all the sound errors in the movie. I just want to enjoy the show.

Different job.

If all this is a complete mystery, describe your show. List the microphone, computer and how you have everything connected. We'll ask you if we get lost. We can't see what you're doing, so it's doing troubleshooting across multiple timezones. Over volume is really unusual. The usual complaint is not...
