Re: noob and recording issue,audio interface

As a new user of this forum you need to be patient after each of your first few posts. They do not appear immediately. One of the moderators reviews them before releasing them to public view. It's all part of keeping spammers off the forum.

Re: Small Gaps in Recording from LPs?

If your audio gear is connected via USB, you are possibly experiencing brief overloads on the USB channel. Your analysis that it was workload conflict was probably spot on; you just tried the wrong kind of workload. Put some stress on the USB devices other than your audio and see if that causes the ...

Re: Another noob Question

All I get is the sound of pads being hit by sticks. That suggests that you are actually achieving a microphone recording of the sounds that exist in the room. My Alesis goes into 1 channel of the mixer and then into the UCA222 which then goes into the PC. I can hear what I'm playing with the headph...

Re: Keyboard shortcut for "paste?"

Try CTRL+V, that's the usual Paste command on a Windows PC. Also, take a look at Edit > Preferences > Keyboard in Audacity. That tells you all the default shortcuts.

Re: Can't get the same samples using speed change

Sound is analog not digital. The computer converts analog to digital (when you record it) and digital to analog (when you play it back). Our ears are analog devices, so the only true test is: does it sound OK? Whether the bits are the same or not is, largely, irrelevant.

Re: Can't get the same samples using speed change

So that tells me it has to be something to do with the older and newer version of Audacity when making the speed change.... Why do you expect two different versions of Audacity to produce "bit identical" results? Those two versions may (will?) each have been built using different versions of the co...
