Re: Converter for Sony microphone (ECM-MS957)

Some suitable presets, according to litterature, are: wide ( 150⁰, S = +6dB) normal ( 120⁰, S = 0 dB ) small ( 60⁰, S = -9 dB ) mono ( only MID ) Thanks, I'd have guessed values around those figures, though for use in Audacity it may actually work out better to reduce the mono a bit for the wide se...

C:/Program Files (x86)Audacity 1.3 Beta (Unicode)audacity.exe It should be C: not C:/ Try installing again and check that it is installing to a valid directory. It may be worth downloading a fresh copy of the audacity installer. Here's a direct link: http://audacity.googlecode.com/files/audacity-wi...

Re: How exporting affects the sample rate

Audacity exports audio tracks using the "Project Rate". This can be found (and changed if required) in the bottom left corner of the main Audacity window.

Re: annoying delay,how to get rid of this?

Turn off "Software Playthrough". If you are using a recent version of Audacity 1.3.x that option will be in the "Transport" menu. If doing this prevents you from hearing anything you will need to configure your sound card for hardware playthrough. This is not possible on all comp...

Re: Need a programmer

Re: Cue Sheets

If all can be done by reading the labels positions or script and able to select this option in Save Dialog, that is going to rock.. What about cue sheets with multiple files? Do you think it would be worth also having a Cue Sheet export option in the Export Multiple dialogue? However we would need ...
