Re: Guitar solos Sound awful - hhhhelp!
But it's the guitar playing over it - sounds awful, and I'm a decent guitarist. I'm not sure if the problem lies with audacity. I don't think Audacity is to blame : the sizzle on your Marvin Gaye track sounds like a hardware problem to me ... Sizzling Hot Funk Guitar.mp3 Like gain on a pre-amp turn...

Problem in mix, not Audacity's fault.
It's odd, because the rhythm track and the synth/strings track came out fine. It's just the piano that sounds dull.

Re: Emphasize voice
i tired to normalized and then equlize(eliminating frequencies above 5000mhz) and the recording is very improved. But there are still noises Try doing the same for frequencies below 200Hz, then use "Amplify". Note: Audacity and similar software can't tell the difference between the voice of the lec...

Re: piano sounds great going in, lousy in Audacity
Like what Steve says below : if you are not comparing like-with-like, say comparing the keyboard performance via headphones with playback via computer speakers, then the lack of vibrancy on playback may not be an Audacity problem but due to the characteristics of the different amplifiers and transdu...

Re: Emphasize voice
Usually i used effect of normalizing, and the quality of the sound is improved...now i tired with equalizer Normalizing just acts like a volume control: it makes all of the recording louder or quieter. If you use "Amplify" (top of the "Effects" menu) and it will make the recording as loud as possib...

Re: Trying to isolate sound in a certain frequency...
There are a number of critical frequencies like that. Ever read the magazine 2600? That's taken from the telephone switch management frequency. I'm thinking if there are any well-known frequencies in your range. NASA Quindar tones are close to 2600Hz ... NASA Quindar bleeps are very close to 2600Hz...
