Re: Constant White Noise regardless if mic is on or off

Attached is a sample... Please understand that we cannot see your computer. Are you actually using the same mic as Kiko on Windows 7? The more detail you give, the more likely we can help, and vice-versa. Your sample sounds like typical USB noise. You are recording at too low a level. Turn up the i...

Re: High pitched beeps on recording play back

Please bear with me as I am relatively new to Audacity and have been making voice recordings for my work using a portable MP3 device and importing those onto a music track with no major problems. However, on trying to record directly onto a music track I am getting very short high pitched beeps, li...

Re: Blue Snowball ICE issue

Hi there, I have a blue snowball Ice microphone and I sit quite close to it if I try to record. It records too low in certain software like audacity or sound recorder, but when I record my voice on a site like vocaroo it records at normal to high volume at the same distance. Why is this? My recordi...

Re: Recording to PC from mixer board - recording OK; no play

The PC side is connected at the light green jack on the rear of the PC and the mixer side is connected to a 1/4" jack on the rear of the mixer. But, since I have added to connection from the mixer to the PC on the other jack for recording, I am not able to playback anything from the PC through...

Re: Error message: invalid token

my computer crashed 58 minutes into our show Assuming you did not pull the power cord or run out of battery, this probably indicates a drivers problem on your computer. To solve the problem I recommend reading http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/faq_errors.html#reboot . audacity wont restore the f...

Re: Constant White Noise regardless if mic is on or off

Hi Kiko- I have the same problem - the white noise is so loud it makes recording (even for a DIY home job) completely unviable. Did you have any luck resolving your issue, or at least minimising the noise? Please note that most users do not visit the Forum every day and do not follow their topics f...

Re: Recovering orphan files (AUP file saved is too short)

Hi Dave, Audacity does not yet support Yosemite, so you use Audacity at your own risk. I just finished editing a 20 minute interview (recorded direct via Audacity), this was saved and reopened several times successfully as an .aup project file. Before outputting to WAV or MP3 I then updated Audacity...

Re: Backing vocals

The information in the link http: //manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/tutorial_vocal_removal_and_isolation.html I've already tried these options with the videos on youtube. But does not work unfortunately. Maybe I might use the wrong music file? I would really like to know what I'am doing wrong. :?: Wh...
