Re: Easy way to concatenate a bunch of audio files?

Re: Does Audacity still re-encode mp3 files when saving them

Audacity does not re-encode on "Save", and I don't think it ever has, but it does encode if you "Export" as mp3. Spliting into seperate tracks can be done withing Audacity using "labels" and "Export Multiple". For more information see http://audacityteam.org/h...

Re: Solved: No stereo on Vista

This was the nearest problem I could find to mine, so I'm bumping it, I have just managed to get audacity to recognise the right part of stereo, so I thought it was just playing in mono. But on closer inspection it's playing stereo however the left part is just playing at a really low volume, my co...

Re: Trouble with Audacity and my USB turntable on Vista.

Re: Tool bar ????

It sounds like you have accidentally changed the language settings.

Re: Echo in headphones when multi track recording

Re: looking for vocal fx/filters and settings you've used

Where can I grab these LADSPA and Nyquist plug-ins? http://audacityteam.org/download/plugins BTW, the SM58 is not at all bad as a vocal mic. You can always use a bit of Equalization to help the tonal balance. Generally when using effects, it is very easy to overdo it, so keep it subtle at first. Al...
