Re: Can't get audio into audacity

Audacity 1.2.5 is really old. It was designed to run on machines of a bygone era.
The recommended version of Audacity for OS X 10.6/10.7 is Audacity 1.3.13 http://audacityteam.org/download/

Re: Strange behaviour with J key

Check that you have the latest version of Audacity (1.3.13)
You will find the full version number in "Help > About Audacity".
If you have an older version you can download 1.3.13 from here: http://audacityteam.org/download/
Just install 1.3.13 over the top of your current version.

Re: Audacity stopped recording

I don't understand why it would just stop working like that. Yes that's strange. Something must have changed. Perhaps Windows has updated your sound card drivers. It may be worth checking if you can roll-back the sound card drivers to an earlier version (instructions here: http://pcsupport.about.co...

Re: Audacity stopped recording

Topic moved to the Audacity 1.3.x forum. How are you playing the "radio online"? Is sound coming out of speakers/headphones attached to your Realtek HD sound card? What is the playback sample rate set at for the Realtek sound card? Try setting the playback sample rate set at for the Realte...

Re: Limiter

This could be called "Soft Limiter" by contrast. I'd prefer to just call it "Limiter..." (as now). Although it is "soft" in the sense that it uses a soft knee (progressive compression ratio), it is "hard" in the sense that it provides infinite compression (br...

Windows Media Player often reads the length of VBR encoded MP3s incorrectly. You could set the MP3 options to use CBR encoding (Click on the "Optiions" button in the export dialogue screen (where you select the file format for the exported file). The track length should be read correctly w...

Re: Please help! No Sound being recorded.

"Stereo Mix" (when available) works by recording the sound that is playing through the sound card. That means that you must be using the (same) sound card for both playback and recording. I presume that when you have used "Stereo Mix" successfully, you were using the on-board sou...
