Re: Constant, very quiet clicking

Any ideas? I'm trying to give recording an audio book a try and that's when I noticed it, once I got everything as quiet as I can manage. The clicks are almost exactly one second apart. Perhaps software conflict ?: Audacity momentary interrupted as other software which tries (and fails) to take con...

Re: Even Up words in speech

Hi, I have a movie sound track which contains an actor making a speech. Unfortunately, his voice goes up and down in volume much of the time. Is there any way I can even up the speech, please? ...

But the audacity recording itself had noise issues , even before exporting it to mp3 format .. The issues may be " enhancements " that Windows (not Audacity) is applying, (e.g. noise-reduction, echo-reduction). Those Windows enhancements (in both recording & playback tabs) should be s...
