The soundcard is a Realtek AC 97, running on XP, with a Technics record player plugged in through the line-in. Check to see if you still get the right channel off-set if you record (silence) with nothing plugged into the line in (disconnect the lead from the record player end so that the jack plug ...

I am trying to digitally emulate Emu SP-1200 sampling capabilities, for drum samples. Possibly a greater influence on the characteristic sound of the EMU SP-1200 was its filter circuitry. I found the spec. sheet for the filter chips that are used in the EMU SP-1200 which may be of interest: http://...

I'll stick to 16-16-16 all the way through for "straight" work, "Straight" work would be just "cut, paste, delete". For anything else (such as Amplify, Normalize, Noise Removal, Equalization ....) there is an overall quality (and performance) advantage in running 16 > ...

In practice I usually find it sufficient to look at the waveform - a height of +/- 0.5 = -6 dB, +/- 0.25 = -12 dB .... A more precise measurement of the peak level can be determined by selecting the required region then selecting the "Amplify" effect from the Effect menu (don't apply the e...

I had this disappearing Audacity, too. But when I right-click on the Audacity rectangle in the Taskbar (Windows 2000), I can click Maximize, which gives me a full-screen Audacity panel. The difficulty arises when I try to use the "Restore Size" button (next to the X button in the top righ...
