The best way to monitor your recording is by connecting the analogue outputs of the turntable to an amplifier. You probably can't hear any sounds on your computer while the turntable is connected (including other software and even system sounds). If this is the case, then Windows has done its usual ...

I have it set to stereo mix and everything. That sounds promising. It don't work It records a flat blue line? or it crashes the computer? or it gives an error message "Don't wake me before 11"? I'm guessing the first... Is this Vista or XP? Is there a little icon near the Desktop "ti...

It's late now and I've only skim-read this topic (so apologies if this is irrelevant), but I remembered seeing something that may be relevant: No Unicode or long file name support Applies to: Audacity 1.2.x versions only There are bugs in the Mac version of wxWidgets, called wxMac, that can affect A...

Oh OK - I wasn't a million miles off.
Try Importing and Exporting as either U-Law or A-Law

Unfortunately, yes, otherwise I would have switched to mp3. I'd be interested to know why you need to stick with WAV format for low quality files. After various experiments it would seem it just miscalculates the output size incorrectly, sometimes adding 20-30 seconds of blank audio on to the file....

Yes, that's a much nicer file name :D What about the "path". Do you have write permissions for D:Mon DocumentosMy Music_recz Is there enough space on that drive? Where did you get the "1.2.6 rev 2 (portable edition)" version of Audacity from? If it's the one that has been package...

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to do, but I'm guessing that you are hoping to Import an image file into Audacity, mess around with it, and Export it back out as an image. RAW PCM files are "headerless" (just the actual data), but .bmp files are not just raw data. Typically a .bmp f...

I find it hard, though, to understand why there isn't a way for me to cancel out a range of sound like I would with a color in photoshop. The audio equivalent of that would be a band stop filter. You can create that effect by using low-pass and high-pass on two copies of the track. However, that is...
