Re: Disappearing .aup files!

I personally would not be using Projects (AUP files) at all. There is no reason at all why capturing a vinyl record should need a Project. Just to clarify; Audacity works only with projects, it does not operate directly on audio files. Audio is either recorded, Imported or Opened into a project. To...

Re: Request: Skin

Re: Recorded track but won't play back or save file

I'm trying to get a mental picture of what you have. You have a recording in Audacity and you can see the waveform on screen? You can play it / can't play it? All of the menus / some of the menus are greyed out? No, I've not got a clear picture at all of what you are asking. Could you try and descri...

Re: Video From Exhibit Floor

You may be able to achieve some marginal improvement using the Noise Removal effect in Audacity 1.3, and perhaps "pull out" the interviews a little using the Equalizer effect, but the improvement is likely to be minimal. This is not due to any inadequacy in Audacity, you will have the same...

Re: import and editing

Have a read of the "Tips" and "Tutorials" sections of the Audacity wiki. (Links at top of page). There's lots of useful information there to help you get started. One of the most common mistakes that people make is to think that Audacity will save an audio file - it doesn't - Whe...

Re: Side Chain Compression?

but it just quiets all the rest (in the middle) wonder why? One of the time settings is probably too long. Try starting with all the time settings at zero, then work from there. Typically you would just use ducking against a strong beat that is not too fast, for example a kick drum or a thumping ba...
