Re: Sound Track doesn't meet ACX Req.

Thanks Koz for your knowledge and direction.

I'm going to add the Room Tone to the beginning of the track.

Also...will honor copyrights and credits.

Re: Sound Track doesn't meet ACX Req.

Operating System: Windows 10 Audicity 2.1.3 There is at least one author that has music in their Retail Audio File. I have an Author who pointed me to the other one, so my Author wants music in his Audible Narration. ACX makes it clear the Retail Audio sample should start with narration, not opening...

Sound Track doesn't meet ACX Req.

If I'm adding Audio track with Sound, how do I get the two tracks to meet ACX requirements?

Re: Old Issue Arises From The Grave To Haunt Me.

Thanks Gale... Everything is to no avail. I believe you are right that it could be the interface. On the focusrite, when I turn the Direct Monitor "ON", I get the buzz that I have been recording. In the event I change interfaces, are you at liberty to suggest a Model(s) that I could purchase? Thanks...

Re: Old Issue Arises From The Grave To Haunt Me.

Gale, I don't know if this has any bearing or not. When I click the recording level before doing anything, I can immediately see the level jump to around -16 dB. It does not show me my floor noise level. This tells me I'm not going to record properly.

Re: ACX requests all files replaced of at least 192 bit rate

The recording channel shows MONO. When exporting to MP3, Channel Mode does not offer MONO as a choice. There is a radio button that requires a choice of "Joint Stereo" or "Stereo". I will have to go back and from the WAV file save a NEW MP3 file. Correct? How do I make the Track Name appear on the T...
