Re: Optimum Dither settings

Creating dither requires processing power, so for playing tracks having the dither set to "none" (and the "fast" option) provides the best performance (though with a marginal reduction in sound quality). When Mixing, Exporting, and other non-real-time processes, the conversion sp...

Re: Split stereo tracks stuck on total pan

In Audacity 1.3.7 and earlier, splitting a stereo track simply splits the left channel off as a track set to "Left Channel", and the right channel off as a track set as "Right Channel". To get them to behave as normal mono tracks you must set them to "mono". Click on th...

Re: click removal question

i went back to the earlier audicity(not beta)and it seems to more suited 4 me being a newbie..

You can have both versions installed but can only run one a...

Re: Audacity questions

You're using Audacity 1.2.6 ? If so, could you either install Audacity 1.3.7 (no need to uninstall 1.2.6 - you can have them both as long as you only run one at a time) Instructions for installing Lame for Audacity 1.3.7 are here: http://audacityteam.org/forum/posting.php?mode=reply&f=12&t=9...

A Guitar Port user? Can you confirm if it is necessary to have the Guitar Port connected before opening Audacity? Any details that you could give about your (working) set-up are sure to help other Guitar Port users.

Re: what does this mean......

hi will there ever be an audicity version where itll have its own burner?none of exporting stuff to do... I doubt it - there's no shortage of CD burners so I think the developers would be more interested in concentrating on the editing / processing features. I do see why many users would like such ...

Re: iMic volume/noise issues

XLR leads are much preferred for microphones.
