Re: Recording levels dropped

I was not intending to give a "fuzzy generality" I'm sure you weren't, but as you go on to say "there are a lot of various options" in the Windows sound system. It's not a straightforward thing at all and the details are all important. I suspect that the Windows sound systems &q...

Re: Sound quality diff b/w 1/8" and 1/4" jacks?

1/4" jacks are generally more reliable than 1/8" jacks (more robust sockets and plugs, bigger contact area and stronger contacts). 1/4" jacks are standard for a lot of stage equipment (live performance). 1/8" jacks are more common for domestic equipment. 1/8" jacks will give...

Re: It doesn't record - need help

Audio Host: NME You mean "MME" ? Output Device: Realtek HD Audio Rear output I find that surprising. I'd have expected that you would need it set to: "Realtek HD Audio Front output" Input Device: Line in/Mic in: Line 1 or 2 " Line in/Mic in: Line 1 or 2 " is that all o...

Re: DD 5.1 cutting

i.e how to tell eac3to to do following tasks (wikipedia did not help me): I don't think that we can help you with eacto either.

Re: It doesn't record - need help

Don't worry about the topic being long - the record on the forum currently stands at 18 pages :D (though if you have any new questions start a new topic ;) ) What are your settings in the Device Toolbar in Audacity? (it'll look similar, but slightly different from this because this picture is from W...

Re: How to make up for decibel loss in High/Lowpass filter

This is also why my (- len 1) "error" is negligible. I guessed that was the case, but with long selections memory usage can be important, hence my comment much earlier in this thread about "no completely satisfactory answer". There was a long discussion a couple of years ago on ...
