Fine program, but Audacities documentation is driving me crazy. I want to use the Recovery tool but the most essential information about it is missing: Do you mean this documentation? http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/CrashRecovery The first paragraph says: * If you had never saved an Audacity proj...

I connected the guitar through that connector + a 3.5 mm to usb converter + a usb extension to my PC's usb port and Windows won't recognize it!! Could you say that again using different words. Guitars usually have 1/4" (6.35mm) mono jack sockets. I'm not sure what you have between the guitars'...

The advantage of the OP's method is that you can vary the gain slider on the rendered track until you get the effect you want, then mix and render everything. With the Channel Mixer you'd have to choose some settings, apply it, then undo and try again if you didn't like it A quick "hybrid"...

I'd also recommend upgrading to Audacity 1.3.12 as there have been many improvements and bug fixes. The defaul...

I wanted to see if anyone else has run into this problem and if so, what a potential solution might be. The problem is probably due to using Audacity 1.2.6 - this version is known to have problems on modern computers and it will not be fixed as all current development is on Audacity 1.3.x which is ...

Can I separate the vocal track from the music and then amplify the vocals only. If the vocal is recorded on a separate track from the rest of the music then it is very easy to do. If the vocal is mixed in with rest of the music on the same track then it is virtually impossible. A "trick" ...
