Re: Audacity not recording in Ubuntu Studio

First, reset the Audacity Preferences back to defaults by deleting "audacity.cfg" ( ~/.audacity-data/audacity.cfg) Then ensure that your M-audio 1010LT is operating correctly. Then reboot. Then launch Audacity and click on "Help > Audio Device Info". Copy and paste the output int...

Re: 2.1.1 not working on 10.10.5

Audacity does not officially support pre-release operating systems, however, perhaps something here may help:

Re: Noise reduction and too high volume

Hi Steve, the file I've posted is being done like you told me, but still I need to lower done some high curves (shouting). Unfortunately I think that is as good as it gets. The badly distorted parts are total trash and there's no way that I can think of to make any significant improvement. It's lik...

Re: The problem with effect "Normalize".

But after some training it is possible to differ even 0,01 db No. I have many years of professional experience in sound engineering, and I can clearly hear a 1dB difference, but no way can I hear a 0.1 dB difference, let alone 0.01 dB difference. The developer of the updated effects was intending t...

Re: One track to one instrument or voice

There is also the much less sophisticated "Elevayta - Extra Boy Pro", which is much less expensive and the cut down version "Extra Boy", but I wouldn't expect either of these to work very well in most cases. The "almost free" cut-down version is hidden near the end of t...

Re: USB option not displayed in Recording Device: drop-down

You need to look in the "Recording" tab (your picture shows the "Playback" tab). If the USB device is not recognised by Windows then you will not be able to record from it. Things to check: If possible, try a different USB lead. Try a different USB socket on the computer. Try reb...

Re: Passing the ACX test, BUT does it sound any good?

That's scary isn't it? I wonder if this was a political microphone and not an engineering one. The marketing people designed it. Here is a short recording, female vocal, Rode NT1-A, no effects. Unfortunately this came to me as an AAC file and there is some compression damage, but there is no huge h...

Re: Karaoke, Rotation, Panning & more

Presumably a 32-bit system, though? Yes, and built from the source code. In 2.1.0 release on Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit (the same build and environment that Starkiller has), those two vocalrediso.ny files appear to process the audio but leave it unmodified. That's very strange. The fact that it is a 64-bi...
