Re: tips for a newbie recording a live band via USB mic

Microphone placement is the main thing that I'd concentrate on. In the "08" track the drums sound quite distant. I understand that it's difficult to get a good mix with one mic in a rehearsal situation ;) Also, in the same recording the keyboard is sounding quite harsh/piercing which I thi...

Re: problems with registering

i have a problem with the registering I presume that you mean "monitoring"? Listening to what you are recording while you are recording? Not all hardware is able to do that. What sort of headphones and microphone are you using? How are they connected to your computer? You need to turn off...

Re: Generate tones and silences at specific seconds

How many tones do you want? What sort of tone?
Could you generate one tone, copy it, then just go to the place that you want the next tone and Ctrl+V to paste?
Do you have a list of times for these tones? If so, what format is that list in? Where did that list come from?

The manual describes how to successfully move a project: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/audacity_projects.html#m...

The Behringer unit is in a plastic box - don't tread on it. The ART USB Phono Plus v2 offers a lot more features and connections than the Behringer UFO202, but...
