Re: volume matching/following

Try applying quite a lot of "compression" to the vocal tracks, then balance them manually. You should find that after compressing the dynamics (which evens out the volume in each track) it is a lot easier to balance the vocal harmonies. Try Chris's Dynamic Compressor http://theaudacitytopo...

Re: Sample Rate and Bit Depth Question

Leave Audacity preferences at the default 32 bit float, 44100 Hz sample rate and set "High-quality Conversion > Dither: None".

Re: Sample Rate and Bit Depth Question

Thanks. So are you recording with the "Master Fader app" on your iPad? When importing audio into a new Audacity project, Audacity will set the project sample rate to either the default (as set in preferences) or to the sample rate of the audio that is imported, if that is higher. The "...

Re: Noise removal doesn't respond

I followed the directions for noise removal (select a few seconds of noise; then click Get Noise Removal). But absolutely nothing happens. Noise Removal is a 2 step process. First you need to capture a noise profile, then you need to run the effect a second time to remove the noise. See here for mo...

You've not really said what the problem is that you are trying to solve. What is the required step image for? The Spectr...
