Re: Quality of piano sound on a keyboard

Thanks for the response! I got so caught up in trying to adjust the recording quality that I skipped over the fact that it's probably the sample itself. To my knowledge, no, I can't add voices to the MO8. :-( I'll try the concert hall trick, but if that doesn't work I guess I'll have to be happy wit...

Quality of piano sound on a keyboard

Hi there! I have a question about the quality of keyboard recordings with Audacity. I have a Yamaha MO8 keyboard, and I'm using Audacity 2.0.0, hooked up through a PreSonus AudioBox vsl44. I would love to find a way to make it sound more "full", like a real piano. To me, the keyboard sounds thin and...

Ahhhhh, "add SILENCE", that's what I couldn't figure out. Thank you so much!

Creating space for reverb within a track

Hi there, I searched for an answer to this question but wasn't sure what keywords to use. Basically I'm making a multi-track recording, and one snippet of vocals (that has its own track) is only 3 or 4 seconds long. I want to apply a massive amount of reverb to it, but when I do that, the sound wave...

Re: Distortion but no clipping showing

Great, thanks! I'll mess around with the Compressor Effect and see if I prefer using it or not. Interesting reading on the loudness wars too, thanks!

Re: Distortion but no clipping showing

Agh, brilliant!! Yes, multi-track recording (piano, violin, viola, cello, and three singers recorded separately). Your trick worked like a charm, thanks! I guess, in a perfect world, the overall mix would be a little louder, but I'm not complaining! The distortion is gone and that makes me happy; I'...

Distortion but no clipping showing

Hello ladies and gents! New Audacity user here, and I'm really enjoying it! Very easy to use, and it's been a lot of fun. However, I can't seem to get rid of distortion during certain parts of a song, and it's driving me crazy! There is NO clipping... I already went through and found some, and I use...
