Re: Audacity Device setting issues

I use the Behringer UCA 202 on Linux. I know that the UCA 222 also works on Linux (it's basically the same device with the addition of an optical output, a different color case, and slightly higher price tag).

I then shut down my mac and when I turned it next time, I repeated the same steps but it keeps giving me a flat line and doesn't record. So doe...

Re: Ubuntu 18.04.3 USB mic (OSS) has no supported sample rates

Try changing the default sample rate in "Edit menu > Preferences > Quality", then restart Audacity and try a test recording in a new, empty project.
Try sample rates of:
44100
48000
96000

I don't know if this will help, but it's worth trying.

Re: Audacity Device setting issues

Leave pavucontrol installed - it's a very useful tool to have, but you only really need to use it with Audacity if you want to record sound that is playing on the computer (rather than recording external sounds). When I record from my mixer, I generally use a Behringer UCA 202, which has stereo &quo...

audacity doesn't open even if I paste open /Applications/Audacity.app/Contents/MacOS/Audacity into terminal
I'm confused. How did you launch Audacity for your first post in this thread?

Re: Set Envelope points by Nyquist command

Nyquist cannot directly access Audacity envelopes. It can however send Scripting commands with "AUD-DO". See: https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Nyquist-Macros Note that an important limitation of Nyquist Macros is that they may either modify the project from Nyquist, OR modify the p...

Re: Audacity 2.3.3

In the input device selection window to the right of the microphone symbol you need to choose the device through which you are hearing the sound and which is suffixed (loopback). "Loopback" is only available when the "host" is set to "WASAPI". Another alternative is to...
