Audacity Forum

I just thought it might be some setting I had failed to notice. Perhaps it is, but you have not yet given us much information to work with. Audacity produces very high quality recordings, so if there is hum on the recording then it must be coming from somewhere. What we need to do is to isolate whe...

only if you *have* the flash drive Or if the project was originally on a hard drive, or if Waleed means that he has lost the data from his flash drive rather than loosing the drive itself.

So, my confusion continues. Neither the bit rate nor the file size "remains the same irrespective of the number of audio channels" (104 versus 209 bit rates and 2,166,806 versus 4.333,847 file sizes) when comparing mono exports to stereo exports. What am I missing here? VBR vs CBR vs ABR....
