Re: Dr Who Dalek synthesised voice

You could also try using the "Nyquist Prompt" from the Effect menu and entering this code:

Code: Select all

(mult s (hzosc 35))
(this code produces Amplitude Modulation)

This sample uses the Leveller effect, followed by the Nyquist prompt followed by a little bit of GVerb:

Re: Can't record from notebook microphone

I feel a bit stupid Not at all, if you hadn't mentioned that it has an array of microphones we would have been chasing this problem much longer. The microphone array idea is unusual, hence requiring a special driver, and spotting the fact that the special driver was missing is not obvious until you...

Re: recording with distortions

I'm having difficulty understanding what the actual problem is. Could you make a recording that demonstrates the problem, then select a couple of seconds of the recording (click with your mouse and drag along the track so that the selection is highlighted) then from the File menu select "Export...

Re: maximum range which can be recorded without distortion

What happens if you turn down the "Input" level on the US-100 to minimum (all the way to the left) and turn the Audacity input level all the way to the left?

What do you mean by "GAIN fxn."?

Re: Having problems with static

If it is loud static then it is probably due to a bad USB connection problem. Try using a different USB port on the computer. Do not use a USB hub, the connection should be direct to the computer USB port. If it is a full size computer rather than a laptop, try the USB ports on the back rather than ...

Re: Multitrack recording

Set you sound card to record from the input that you are using and not from "Stereo Mix" or "What U Hear". (for example, set it to record from "Mic" or "Line") You may be able to set this from the Volume Control in the Desktop Taskbar, otherwise go into the Wi...
