Re: Attaching Wav files to emails

Cut to the chase -
1) how big is the file that you are trying to send?
2) Does the WAV file play OK on your computer?
3) Do you have other problems sending emails?

Re: Sound dies when running audacity

OK, so you have a logitech wireless headset that is connected in some "wireless" way to your computer, and when you run Audacity the sound output stop from somewhere...

Re: combining portions of files into another track

Welcome to the wonderful world of sound editing :P

Typically, a 10 minute sound clip takes 100 minutes to edit, if you're good at it.

Great looking mic, but tend to sound overly bright, unlike the audio sample that sounds very muffled. Not sure what's going on there, but something's not right.

Re: combining portions of files into another track

I'm not quite sure what your question is. With large projects, I prefer to work in sections of no more than about 30 minutes. I would then load all the "source files" for one "section" (where the final length will be perhaps 20 minutes), then edit the clips on multiple tracks. Wh...

Re: download legacy version?

The RME Hamerfall soundcards have hardware mixing, though I've never used one under Linux.

Re: Non-destructively removing sections from an Audacity pro

Audacity has a little known feature called "Cut Lines". To enable cut lines, go to "Edit > Preferences > Tracks" and in the "Behaviours" section, "Enable cut lines". When enabled, if you "Cut" (not "Delete") a section from a track, the sele...
