Audacity Forum

I would never expect Audacity to exit when I only close a file. In most situations it is a big advantage to close Audacity in between sessions. That is, when you want to close a file and open another one, it is usually best to close audacity. The reason for this is that Audacity creates a huge amou...

Using a wet track and a dry track you are half way to being able to hear the results in real time - LADSPA plug-ins include a "Preview" feature that helps you to create the wet track, then using the track volume sliders, you can adjust the levels of the two tracks while they play. Full rea...

1. noise reduction by 0.2 - I guess this translates into "audacity language" as "noise removal" but by how many dB? That depends very much on the type, and severity of the noise - noise removal is a destructive process and causes unpleasant artefacts if used too much, so you nee...

Question -Isn't a balanced signal at a higher voltage than an unbalanced RCA jack is rated for? Not necessarily. There are different "standards" used for "Line level". Generally, -10 dBV is used for domestic equipment, and +4 dBu is used for professional equipment (note the diff...

It looks like Digidesign also offers MME drivers, which should work. It is not as straightforward as it may at first appear. In order for it to work, the 003 has to be aware that a program is trying to access it so that it can switch to "Working" mode. This appears to be done via Direct X...
