Re: erasing parts of a track without everything else moving

You have to manually move that new file up and up and up and up etc..! This is so time consuming and soooo annoying! Why is it not possible to pick and drop it anywhere you want?? Of course it is, using the mouse. Click and drag on an area of the Track Control Panel that isn't a control, then relea...

Re: Differences between analogue & digital mixing?

Fundamentally, "poor" or "artificial-sounding" representation of "sound stage" (where the instruments are placed left-right and back-front in a believable ambience, and how the instruments blend into each other). My touchstone for this is my LP and CD of Sonny Rollin's...

Re: How To Determine File Format

Indeed the VN 7000 has no USB or SD Card capability - I just checked. Your settings here look OK, although your recording level might be low: http://forum.audacityteam.org/download/file.php?id=10880 Make sure when you play the file on the recorder that the volume is turned up. Turn on Transport > So...

Re: Time shifting

I am using windows 8.1 and the latest version of Audacity. Moved to the Windows board, thanks. When you give your Audacity version, please give all three numbers as per the pink panel at the top of this page. That avoids any possible confusion. Is your problem with Time Shifting fixed, so this can ...

Re: How do you improve sound quality in Audacity?

You CAN apply effects and filters to change how the file sounds, but you could never make it sound better. Filters can make it sound better. You can often remove steady low level noise with Noise Removal with few audible artifacts. You can remove aggressive mouth noise in a vocal with a high pass f...

Re: Training Video Project For Audacity

Few of us on Audacity Team are fully experienced in making videos and set up to do it properly. There are a few users on an unofficial Audacity Facebook page who make visually attractive videos and who could be interested. Please Google it. There are at least two Audacity Facebook pages. If you go a...

Re: Audacity won't open for account, opens for Domain Admin

I have a user who uses sound equipment. The computer is on a domain network. They've been using this computer and Audacity for a couple years with no issue. All of a sudden, when they try to use Audacity, the splash screen shows up for a fraction of a second, then nothing. No process, no window. It...

Lately I had some major problems with my computer and as a result I had to re-install Windows 7. Of course I then needed to re-install all my s...

Re: Updated De-Clicker and new De-esser for speech

There seem to be suggestions that the De-Esser is very good. Is the De-Esser also good for music vocals? Does it need more development? Would you want it to be published on the Audacity Wiki if so when? I'm still +1 for that if linked stereo is added. But, Paul gets to write a user-level descriptio...
