Re: What effect/filter settings could improve this?

Also what "service" are you referring to? Koz is referring to the Windows Sound "Enhancements" (http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/faq_recording_troubleshooting.html#enhancements) but I agree with Koz's second post that that is probably not the problem here. It sounds far more...

Where do they plug in? What sort of connector? A small round lime green "mini jack" socket? USB? HDMI?

Re: Alternative to Reaper

If you're on Windows and you like Reaper, my advice would be to pay the (very reasonable) $60 license fee (or $225 if you require a full commercial license).

Re: Help Making a Short Montage

Hi I have tried with the time line shift which is working but I cant manage to get them all on the same line as one track. They don't need to be on the same track. When you export all of the tracks are "mixed down" to a single (mono or stereo) track. If you specifically want them on the s...

Re: Help Making a Short Montage

Yes, absolutely. The basic procedure is to import the tracks (they appear one below the other as separate tracks). Use the Time Shift tool to slide them left/right as necessary. Trim them down as necessary and apply and effects or fades. Export your finished masterpiece as a WAV file (WAV is a high ...

Re: Wont copy on media center

It is quite possible to burn music to a CD using the Windows “File Explorer” directly. Just to emphasise the point that Gale has made, the resulting CD will be a "data CD" not an "audio CD". To create an audio CD that is compatible with most CD players you need to specify "...

Re: Editing

I saw in a previous post that you have to stop the track instead of pausing it in order to edit, cut, or paste. Fantastic, it works - people do find answers on the forum. That's made my day :D Now if someone can assist me with my situation regarding importing that would be great. I see that Gale is...
