Audacity Forum

I can't help with anything to do with the Yamaha forum as their forum has nothing to do with us, so you'll need to ask them about those issues. To create a normal audio file (such as a WAV or MP3 file from a recording in Audacity, you need to "Export" the audio. There is a "Getting St...

That sounds as if the audio is distorting due to being at too high a level, but if that were the case it should also occur when playing the same file in other applications.

Compression is one affect that would greatly benefit from "real time preview" (so that you can twiddle the controls while listening).

Audacity can record any signal that you send to it (via the computer sound system). The problem is getting the sound from the outside world into the computer. Microphones typically "roll off" (reduce) the level of very low frequencies so as to avoid problems with rumbling sounds in the rec...
