Unfortunately there is not much you can do to correct echo or reverberation effects. The key is to avoid them in the original recording.
Do you need advice on how to avoid echoes on future recordings, or was this just a one-off that you were hoping to "fix"?

Flac export works fine in the current 1.3.12 version.

First off, are you able to get an undistorted recording of your screams? If the "source material" is distorted then the jobs over. Secondly - Are you using Audacity 1.3.12? If you're using an earlier version, upgrade so that you can take advantage of the new and improved feature. "ADT...

unless it's a guaranteed fix. It's not. What I don't understand is how am I able to record sound with Xfire and Fraps normally (while taking video) That's the real mystery - and very clever how they do it. These applications are designed specifically to capture data directly from the download strea...

there are little horizontal bars throughout the graphic image where there is nothing during playback That sounds like "drop-outs" and is not uncommon with USB devices. Are you using a USB turntable? Assuming that it is a USB turntable, the problem is caused when the USB connection is unab...
