It may be possible, but it depends on several factors. Must be a conventional microphone - not a USB microphone. Your sound card and drivers must support stereo mix. If you've got those two you're in with a chance. I'm hoping you're on Windows XP because it gets a lot harder in Vista and Windows 7. ...

It's possible that you could problems if you try to run GoldWave and Audacity at the same time, but other than that you should be OK.
I have a computer with Nero and Audacity and there's no problem there.

The source sound for this one was white noise; 1) Generate white noise (must be 32 bit for this to work) 2) High Pass filter effect - 1000Hz 48dB per octave 3) Repeat the high pass filter another 3 or 4 times 4) Low Pass filter effect - 1000Hz 48dB per octave 5) Repeat the low pass filter another 3 ...

I've moved your post to the Audacity 1.3 part of the forum. 1.3.9 has now been replaced with 1.3.12 - it would be worth upgrading as there have been a lot of important bug fixes. To make tracks overlap you need to keep each of the songs on different tracks rather than putting them on the same track....

There are a few differences but it's certainly no more "difficult", in fact many tasks can be done much more simply. There's a few differences in the layout, such as "Import" and "Export" are now both in the File menu, and changing the export file type is now selected i...

Hello again :) Yes there's various things that you can do, but the first thing to ask is why do the songs sound better with WMP? After all, if they are commercial recordings then a lot of studio time and money have gone into producing the "perfect" mix, so why is it that by enabling a few ...
