Audacity Forum

I miss my big 48-channel mixer too I like the word "big" :) What did you have? My favourite was an A&H GL2400, which only just counts as "big". Currently I usually use a little mixer with just 8 mic channels, but at least it's got 100mm sliders and some space around the knob...

Just today I found out about something called the Kaotica Eyeball; looks intriguing, but I'm not about to shell out $200 for a piece of foam. We had someone on the forum that used one of those. In the end they got rid of it because it coloured the sound (made the mic sound like it was inside a foot...

A good source of free sound effects is Freesound.org (https://freesound.org). Downloading requires email registration.
Audacity supports Ogg Vorbis, so you can use Audacity to convert files to Ogg format if necessary.

I think I recall the 'Pitch (EAC)' selection in the TCP showing a chromatic scale of some format. No, I don't think that was ever the case in Audacity, though it may have been an intention that was never realised. Until very recently the EAC view did not work well at all. There has recently been a ...

Assuming that you are using the current Audacity 2.1.2 version (if not, get it from here: http://www.audacityteam.org/download/) Items A to F: Edit menu > preferences >Tracks http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/tracks_preferences.html Item G. Audacity does not open audio files. Audio files are &quo...

What I miss though is a little bit more flexibility. Let's imagine that we had a combo-box for the monitor behaviour: Monitor: "Raw" "Pre-Gain" "Pre-Pan" I think what we really need here is control surface support. Having real knobs and sliders make this sort of thing ...

I think we have discussed something like that before, trying to address that what you hear is not always what you export. Yes it was discussed, but inertia sent it off into the long grass, as has happened with so many good ideas. If the monitor button is down, what do you hear when the Mute button ...

A muted (single) track on Export is no export - nothing happens except a warning message. If Mix and Render did not ignore the mute/solo status, then I think it would be reasonable to show a warning if all selected tracks are muted, just as we do when exporting, as it is obviously a mistake. Are yo...

That being so I would not expect either Mix and Render item in the root of the menu to do nothing on those two selected tracks. I didn't suggest that it "does nothing" with those tracks. I suggested that it treats them as muted tracks when they are muted, just as it treats them as tracks ...

I saw a Woman that spent $27.00 for a piece of Acoustic Foam. She tied a string to the top and bottom, making about a 300 degree circle, with her Snowball mic sitting in the center. If the room already has pretty good acoustics, that may be all that is necessary (and it's likely to be a lot better ...
