Re: Recording randomly stops

Hi edfardos, I've moved this topic to the Audacity 1.3 part of the forum. Ensure that you have "Software Playthrough" switched off (Transport menu) as that will cause this problem. There is a known issue with using a different sample rate in Audacity to that which the hardware is using. I ...

Re: How to get defaults to work right in export-multiple?

OK, I didn't realise that you were trying to change the defaults, I thought that you meant you were using the default defaults (empty metadata) I'm not sure what you're doing, but unless there has been a change between 1.3.10 and 1.3.11 that I'm not aware of (which is possible) saving defaults for m...

Re: budget (usb) mic for classical guitar recording needed

I'm a fan of the T-Bone mics. I have a couple of these and they're great value for money. They get better as the price goes up. The only T-Bone mic that I've been disappointed with was a T-Bone MB85 - it looks and sounds like a cheap mic, which is not really surprising because it is a really cheap m...

Re: Meter toolbar

The red bars show the recording level and the green bars show the playback level. You should adjust the recording level so that the red bars extend to a maximum of -12dB or more, but should never extend all the way to the end (0dB). If they extend up to 0dB they will leave a little red line at the r...

Re: How to get defaults to work right in export-multiple?

As far as I'm aware, the only place that metadata is stored (where it can persist from one Audacity session to another) is in the Audacity Project file (the .AUP file that is created when you "Save" or "Save As"). If you are restarting Audacity and creat a new project, I don't se...

Re: How to get defaults to work right in export-multiple?

it seems to remember the values for artist, album, and year, from the previous album. .... Is there a magic trick to make these values stick without doing each album twice, The most simple way - before you start recording a new album, restart Audacity. That will ensure that everything is reset, (al...

Do you mean that you still get the error when you reboot?

What operating system are you using?
