Audacity Forum

Hello everyone, I am completely new to Audacity. I tried to watch a lot of tutorials to remove some background noise that we had on our vocal recording. It is a voice recording made from android. I was given the suite to edit and modify as needed to use Audacity. It's a one hour recording to exhibi...

with a touchscreen? And you didn't have one before ?

I had a similar problem a while ago and found that the problem was my filthy fingers touching the screen and inadvertently changing my mouse selections.

I hope this helps.

So I have a fix for the 16.9.0 version of VS2019: Edit your local copy of c:\aud300\audacity\src\float_cast.h: 1) Add the following line immediately before the "__inline long int" line near line 59/60: #if 0 2) Add the following line immediate before the "__inline long long int" line near line 83: #...

Thank you, yes I've now got to be able to monitor the microphone to set level, but then, when i press the Red record button nothing happens, no recording! No nothing! and no way of knowing what I may be doing wrong if anything!!! reaching the stage of trying another software 😩 Windows guy here. Doe...

One more thing.....as I was poking about in my sounds area in "Settings" I noticed that 2 output devices were present. The Realtek Audioone and "NVidia High Definition Audio" which is tied to my monitor speakers (not used)......I set that back to my Realtek/speakers setting and disabled the NVidia ...

OK, it appears that Visual Studio 2019 version 16.9.0 is now supplying intrinsic implementations for the lrint and lrintf instructions. Since VS2019 wasn't before, Audacity was supplying it's own version. Microsoft considers this a "fix" for a previous omission. Unfortunately, this "fix" breaks Auda...

I don't seem to have an "enhancements" tab.....and I don't see any place to disable sound effects..... Is there another place it could be hiding?

Yes, so look around. Is there anything on the Levels tab ?

But I can't figure out why the source playing on the Altecs is sounds so much better than the Audacity recording which sounds so much worse Audacity does not do any processing on the recording - it records what it gets from Windows. I wonder if Windows is giving you some kind of bass boost or autom...

Sometimes it can even take 20 or 30 minutes for a 1 hour recording. Is this usual? I have experienced similar on different computers and versions, but I am currently on Windows 10 with Audacity 2.4.2. And it is happening again. Would anyone be able to tell me how long it should take for 8-10 hour r...
