Thanks for replying Steve.
I suspect that this is what happened.
So what do I adjust to change this..... the little input volume slider (- <<<<<<< +)?

Hi, I copied a section of my voice. It sounded find when I played it in audacity, but when I exported it to mp3 it has a sort of crackly sound, but only in the voice, not in the empty spaces.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Hi Koz,
Thanks. I'll check those out.
What about video? I would also like to convert, or capture the stream from, FLVs so that most computers will play them.

Hi, This doesn't really have anything to do with audacity, but I haven't been able to find the answer anywhere, so I beg your indulgence. I'm in the habit of extracting the audio (to mp3) form my browser's cache flv files. Lately this has not been working all the time (usually it seems with files ca...

Hi Steve,
Well, I installed 1.3.5. and it does a nice job of repairing clicks.
