Audacity Forum

Since you posted on the "Recording Techniques" board, I'll have to ask you:
What's your operating system?
Which version of Audacity?

There may be the information that you need on this page: http://audacityteam.org/wiki/index.php? ... stallation

There is the "SE4" by Steve Harris http://plugin.org.uk/ladspa-swh/docs/la ... th_sEc2.93
(I've never used it though, so don't ask me how it works )

There's about 51 hours record time left on the D drive, the C drive only has windows installed, By default, Audacity stores its data in a temporary folder on the C: drive, so free space on the C: drive is important. Once you have "Saved" the project, Audacity will use the project data fol...

I think this problem is most likely a hardware problem. You could try recording at a different bit depth (say 16 bit) to see if the sound card behaves any better (though I'd be surprised if it makes any difference. Other than that, I think it's either a new sound card (there are decent USB sound car...

Please explain target drive. By default, Audacity will record on the C: drive. If you "save" a project and then continue recording, Audacity will save its data on whichever hard drive you saved your project on. Note that audio recording uses a LOT of disk space, so that's something you ne...

If the audio on the recording goes right up to the end of the track, then if you zoom in very close you may notice that the final "sample" is left hanging somewhere above the "zero" line. This would account for a small "click" as the sound card drops its audio output do...

To change the sample rate, do not use the drop down track menu (this will cause a speed change as you have noticed). Instead, change the "Project Rate" in the project rate box on the selection tool bar (bottom left by default). This will cause your exported audio to be at the sample rate s...

Yes there's a known problem with the Eq on the current beta version of Audacity. There have been some code changes in 1.3.6 (still "alpha" so not yet released) that will hopefully fix the problem. the one thing I would really like is "real time "eq , See this thread: http://audac...
