By the way, the project files saved with 2.2.2 should be fully compatible with 2.3.0, correct?

Yes.

I assume it sounds better after both channels are filled (right?). It will probably sound better than silence in one ear, but it has no advantages over a proper single channel mono track. To create a proper single channel mono track, set the "number of channels" in the device toolbar to &...

8000 Hz sample rate is a bit too low for voice. As Bill wrote, at this sample rate, audio frequencies are limited to below 4000 Hz. This is approximately equivalent to old style "narrowband" telephone, on which it is difficult to distinguish "f" from "s" sounds. The fre...

Look in the Windows Sound Control Panel and check that the device is responding to the mic (there should be a green meter that responds to the input). If that's working, then in the device toolbar , set the "host" to MME and the recording device to the one that matches the device in the Wi...

That's quite an old version. The current version is 2.3.0, but I don't think that's the problem. What is showing appears to be the two stereo tracks that were created all in Red.

2.1

That's two numbers. What's the third number? (look in "Help > About Audacity").

I have not upgraded as I particularly like the bassboost feature which has aparently been removed on later issues. There is a plug-in version of the Bass Boost effect here: https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Nyquist_Plug-in_Packs_and_Legacy_Plug-ins#Bass_Boost Installation instructions here: https:...

I want to try to actually change an AM audio recording into FM sound quality. If you can do it the other way round, how do yo do the opposite so that it sounds like FM? It may not be possible. Going from "FM quality" to "AM quality" is mostly a matter of removing very low and ve...
