Can you hear the tape while you are playing/recording it? Does it sound "Minnie Mouse" while you are playing/recording the tape?

There's some sort of bug/compatibility issue between Firefox and the forum software that causes a couple of spaces to be added to the start of each line when copying code from a forum post. There are a couple of plug-ins available for Firefox that resolve this issue - "Copy as plain text" ...

As I said, it depends on the hardware, but usually the headphone output goes through an extra headphone amplifier circuit, so it may be of lesser quality than the main Record output. There may also be other differences in the signal routing. The "Tape" / "Record" out is the one t...

Some users have reported great success with using the pencil for removing small clicks, but personally, like you, I find it to be more trouble than it is worth. Perhaps we don't have the patience or hand/eye coordination necessary to make it work reliably. Alternatives that can be used are: Hold dow...

It is not very subtle :grin: we'll be calling you "MC RJH" - add a stronger beat to it and you could put it on YouTube as a Remix. I wonder if there was ever such a fuzz about a plug-in that wasn't intended for shipping with Audacity. :sigh: yes. Sometimes the documentation can take consi...
