Re: Recorder goes off during recording

And where can I find this option? If I go to Control Panel -> Sounds and Audio devices there is no such option. I have a sigmatel audio sound card and the driver doesn't have such option either. The setting will be in the Sigmatel control panel near the clock in the lower right of your desktop. It ...

Re: Sample Rate

Audacity automatically changes the project rate to the sample rate of the first imported audio. You can see that in the lower left corner of the window. That's also where you can change it back to your desired sample rate. Absolutely. Just set the project sample rate in the lower left corner immedi...

Re: Record stops after 0.6 seconds. [Solved]

For some reason i did not find the md5sum for the image, so i m not sure what is causing this (hardware? corrupt cd?). Most probably a fault on the CD. Ubuntu publist the MD5 checksum of all iso images, so you can check your download against the published MD5. If the iso checks out correct, then yo...

Re: Won't run on Vista

Hi, Have downloaded Audacity Converter but it keeps telling me that it is inactive. Is there a code somewhere that I need to enter? Help please. You have just been given a huge amount of "benefit of the doubt" and have not yet been banned. Your signature has been deleted. There is no prog...

Can anyone test "Plot Spectrum" in Audacity 1.3.8

I notice that "Plot Spectrum" in Audacity 1.3.8 produces a different output from earlier versions. I'm using Audacity 1.3.8 on Linux, but I expect this to be the same on all platforms. Here is an example of the type of thing: In any version of Audacity 1.3.x 1) Generate 20 seconds of silen...

Re: Bug in Timer Record...

Thanks waxcylinder, I only rarely use timer record and I've never seen this bug. I've read your post about the midnight thing, but not knowing that was a red herring it did not seem to apply here. bobwd, if you can make this problem happen at will, you may be able to help the developers, as a tester...

Re: latency problems

I do get a signal but its 20-30 db down from the good channel Things to check: 1) Check that the problem is not from the audio source -try feeding an input from something else. 2) Check your lead - try a different lead. 3) Make sure that you do not have a "pan"/"balance" control...
