Not with Audacity. You need something a bit more specialised, such as Sonic Visualizer

Re: Editing piano?

As you've posted in the Audacity 1.2.x part of the forum I assume that is what you are using. Audacity 1.2 is really old now and has known problems on modern computers. I'd highly recommend that you upgrade to Audacity 1.3.13. http://audacityteam.org/download/ However even Audacity 1.3.13 cannot do ...

Re: uninstalling old version

If it's not in the uninstall list then it's usually sufficient to just delete the audacity program folder.

Re: hangs when reach 2GB ram on win 64 system

if i set audacity to record on RAM, Do you mean: Edit menu > Preferences > Directories > Audio cache: "Play and/or record using RAM (useful for slow drives)" That option is really just a workaround for users with very old or slow machines. In all other cases that option should be disabled...

Re: Recording from soundboard

Try rebooting your computer and avoid opening any other audio applications (ensure that you do not have any flash web pages open in your web browser). Open Audacity and with the host set to ALSA, look in the recording drop-down of the Device Toolbar and see what options are available. The Recording ...

AAC is the codec. It needs to be in a container, which is usually MPEG-4 audio. A file that has the extension .AAC is usually in an MPEG-4 audio container. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG-4_Audio Audacity uses the M4A extension for MPEG-4 audio. If you need a different container format, then you m...
