Re: voodoo child by rogue traders and audacity

I presume that you are not getting confused by the first 6 bars of music which are supposed to sound a bit strange (hardly any bass below about 500 Hz). So assuming that you are talking about the rest of it, you probably just have the record level set too high. Use the Windows Mixer to lower the rec...

You will need to give a lot more detail. How are you recording? What do you mean by wrong (rong)? What is your recording source? etc.

Re: Missing letters in labels

So are you using a Danish keyboard?
You may need to use Audacity 1.3 to cope with the different character encoding.

Re: No Playback

Gnome media is, but when installed it doesn't only not work, it also collapses everything, the whole system broke down! Oops, sorry :oops: I trust that you have now removed it OK. qamix isn't in the repo's That's a shame, it's worked wonders for me. I think that you will probably have to delve into...

Yes. When the tracks are imported, that's the way they will be.

Re: Splitting exixting tracks

Re: Reverb created

First have a look at this, with particular attention to the section on Vista: http://audacityteam.org/wiki/index.php? ... bar_Issues

Re: Total and Drastic Newb!

i'm not even sure where to plug my instrument into the computer. First you need a soundcard that has a "Line in" (not to be confused with a "microphone in") If you are on a desktop PC then you probably have one - the socket will probably be one of a group of 3 or more mini-jack ...

Re: No Playback

when using the live cd recording of sound will not function. The hard rive is not accessable, I can't say that I've tried it with sound-recorder, but Audacity can record even when running from a Live CD - it uses the RAMDisk (so of course there's a relatively short time limit to how long a recordin...
