"Better" in what way? What's wrong with the Equalizer in Audacity 1.3.14?

When I listen to music on my laptop speakers, I can hardly ell the difference between 64kbps MP3 and the original WAV file. When listening through good speakers or headphones, I find anything worse than about 192 kbps intensely irritating. Converting from 320 kbps to 128 kbps will be (a bit) worse t...

I have some multiple drum tracks recorded at different times. Can I import them to Audacity and equal the volume levels on all the tracks at once? You can Normalize the "peak level" of multiple tracks at the same time, but as DVDdoug wrote, "peak level" is not always the same as...

The lower the bit rate, the worse the audio quality. Each time the audio is encoded in a lossy format (such as MP3, AAC, OGG, etc) some of the audio information is discarded, which causes a loss in sound quality. The higher the compression, the lower the bit rate and smaller the file size is, but al...

Yes you can, but there are some details that you need to be careful of: Audacity 1.2.x cannot open projects that have been saved by Audacity 1.3.x Be careful of using special characters in file names (applies more to moving projects from Mac to Windows as Windows has quite a few "reserved chara...

After that, probably the best thing is to work through the previous thread (possibly in reverse order) and check that all the settings are as they should be. Probably a g...

If you don't provide the information that we need to help you, then we can't help you.
Software Playthrough always creates a delay, which is why I did not suggest doing that.

Work on expanding the MIDI features is in progress, but adding new features has been "old hold" for quite a while, pending the release of Audacity 2.0 (which is now imminent). VSTi is pretty much a non starter imho until such time as Audacity supports real time processing and has more exte...

As of tomorrow, Audacity is due to be in "code freeze" prior to the release of Audacity 2.0 If you register at the bottom of the Audacity home page you will be notified as soon as Audacity 2.0 is released. Audacity 2.0 is very closely based on the current 1.3.14 version, but if you want to...
