Audacity Forum

The closest I can get is the help tips if you mouse over an icon. Are these enabled in Audacity's preferences?

You go to the page that describes the button and hit command-p on your Mac?

Or am I being dense again?

See the blue area over your post?

There's a link "manual".

And in the manual, there's a picture of the interface. If you click on any of the buttons, it takes you to the relevant page.

Some good old-fashioned picture mapping. Better than Youtube vids...

I dunno, Koz. The docs mention Core audio compliance and ASIO. But what does "Core audio compliance" mean, exactly? But nothing to be found for the drivers on the Mac, if needed. It seems you need the setup app to set sample rate and bit depth. Windows need ASIO, so that won't be much good with Auda...

Just a side-note: If you use Windows, move anything you want to run, like an installer .exe, from the downloads folder to any other folder (or even the desktop) before you run it.

Only worry is if it'll work on Windows. That depends on your Windows version, but fortunately MiniDSP also provides an ASIO driver. That ...

As Steve said, it works in iTunes, but the songs don't get changed. If you need to make a long playlist, you could have a look at Mixxx: http://mixxx.org/ It's open source, free, available for Windows, Linux and Mac and has a lot of built-n features that are meant just for your application. And it u...

Thanks, Richard.

Seems an interesting bird, with that crossed beak. Never seen or heard one here.

If you've never done this before, I'd advise a standalone recorder in stead of a computer. Even if the preamps are a bit less than on a good audio interface, it will be far less hassle. Computer batteries don't last very long and are relatively heavy to carry around. Recorder batteries are small, li...
