Re: maximum range which can be recorded without distortion

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "the maximum range of sound", but in slightly technical terms with that equipment you should be able to record frequencies in the range of about 10 Hz to 15 kHz and a volume level from a whisper to a loud shout. You should be able to record both speech a...

Re: Going to Setup a Small studio need advice

it was to my understanding audacity was able to record multiple tracks at once over usb? This is correct provided that the sound card and the sound cards drivers support "multi-channel" recording. Unfortunately there is little information available about which sound cards will actually wo...

Re: Real beginner stuff

When Audacity starts and you're using the on-board mic, a dialogue should pop up saying "WARNING mic enhancements are enabled. Do you want to disable them whenever you run Audacity?" You can click on "Yes" or "No" or "Cancel" and the setting should be remembe...

Re: record button in Audacity activates accelerating loud so

I don't know where to find the version of Audacity, but I have used it for about 3 years now. You can find the version number in the Help menu > About Audacity. 3 years is a long time in software development so I'd highly recommend that you upgrade. The latest 1.3.12 version is available from here:...

Re: Adding modules to Audacity

I'll move this topic to the General Audio Programming section as that's possibly a bit more appropriate. for example to generate signals (like the Chirp module) It's possibly better (certainly easier) to do that as "plug-in" rather than a module. "Generate" type plug-ins are very...

Re: What's this noise? (Squeal while recording.)

or it could be RF interference,or heterodyne modulation from an unstable clock signal, or from a power supply... Interesting that its in one channel only. That could be due to a bad connection on one audio lead as Koz suggested, or it could be due to a badly designed circuit board that send one audi...

Re: Do we need the Mixer Board and Karaoke?

There's the crash generating tone into an existing track with the Mixer Board open, and the drawing of vertical green lines in the audio tracks when manipulating a slider in the Mixer Window, neither of which has made it to bugzilla yet. And on Linux the ToolTips are hidden under the Mixer window. ...
