Audacity Forum

can't I force Windows to show me the real music filename--with extension--instead of hiding it from me? As WC has said, (and as I thought you were aware, but perhaps you were being rhetorical or something) you can easily set up Windows to show the file extension. However, the file extension is by n...

Ooh that's weird...... time for a rumble filter.

I too have a problem recording in true stereo. When listening to the vinyl I noticed the recording moved a voice from left to right and back. The voice did not move when playing my recorded Audacity stereo track. I followed Allen's inversion test and I do get dead silence, as long as gain and balan...

Try "Wavosaur" or "Reaper".

A nice detailed write-up. I'm just on my way out, so I'll have to be brief: From a quick read through the thing I notice: In Audacity - "Edit menu > Preferences > Audio I/O", set the recording and playback devices to USB (the UCA 202) - I'm not sure exactly what it is listed as in Windows ...
