Re: Antares Autotune VST compatability?

Re: Can I burn CD's with Audacity?

Windows Media Player is not really recommended for CD burning at all - as Koz said "the Desperation Method" . When you burn an audio CD (with any program) - the audio format on the CD MUST be "44100Hz 16 bit WAV" because that is the format that is used on audio CD's. Any other fo...

Re: Dragon Naturally Speaking 10

It seems that you've worked out that DNS is causing the problem, and it sounds like the program is hijacking your sound system. I've not got DNS, but something that may solve the problem.

Re: Can I do this with Audacity?

I would recommend Audacity 1.3.6 (beta)
The 1.2.x version is getting very close to the end of its life now, and there are many improvements in 1.3.6.

Re: Correcting skips in downloaded music

A "skip" in the music when you play back in Windows Media player is not necessarily due to the file being faulty - it could be that Windows Media Player is making the skip rather than the file. To test this, Import the file into a new Audacity project (note that Audacity does not support a...

Re: Recording Problems, Help Me?

So does your computer "auto-detect" what you plug into the sound card?

I suspect that your problem is that you are connecting the wrong output of the mixing desk top the computer.
