Re: Effects option pane

You've posted in the Audacity 1.2 for Linux part of the forum, but I'm guessing that you're using Audacity 1.3?

If so, go to "Edit menu > Preferences > Interface" and disable "Clean Speech Mode".

Re: .aup file deleted _data folder intact

It's random. I don't know why, it just is. If you need to sort them into order, sort by date/time.

The box can often be the most expensive single item - I have several projects that are built into old tobacco tins (fully shielded with a tight fitting but easily removed lid when it's necessary to change the battery).

Re: audacity sometimes won't start when devices change

I've been "playing" around with linux for the last 12 years or so... (personally and professionally) I think I can say I have a fairly good knowledge of how the system works... You shouldn't have told me that - I'll be picking your brains now :D One thing that has always been a bit of a m...

Re: Portable CD burning apparatus?

Just about any modern laptop computer will handle editing with Audacity and burning CDs. I've no experience with Netbook computers but suspect that may may be a bit underpowered for the job, and I don't think they have built in optical drives for burning CDs. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm ...

Re: Odd distortion

If I had to guess I'd say faulty sound card, though I'd like to test it, either in a different PC (preferably with a different OS) or in a different recording program using ASIO drivers (preferable on a different machine).

Re: Problems with recording from skype

On debian you need to install libbio2jack0 Also available for Ubuntu - not tried it yet, but installing now - shall have to have a play with this. The trick is to get the software to put Near on the left and Far on the right of a capture recording. The clumsy VM workaround described earlier provide...
