Re: Amplify on Audacity

The new peak amplitude is.7, not zero as it should be THAT is the reason why the "OK" button is greyed out. Full-scale amplitude would measure as 0 dB, and signals less than that are measured as negative values. Any value greater than 0 dB will clip, but "allow clipping" is not ...

Re: no sound during playback

Re: destorted recording levels

Sorry AR, but you are hijacking someone else's question.
