It will still launch on startup if you have Audacity open when you shut down the Mac and have "Reopen windows when logging back in" checked in the shut down/restart dialogue.

Re: Export in batch .wav 32 bits PCM

I have more than 5000 .ogg files that I would like to export into 32 bit PCM .wav in batch mode. However, there is no command for this in the chain mode settings. Any solutions? Sorry, an export command in Chains for "Other uncompressed files" is a feature request. I can add your "vo...

Re: i want to play through with a delay

should this thread not be here? I think it will be most useful to others where I moved it now (Audio Processing). Audacity won't be implementing real-time effects any time soon so there is probably not a lot of use asking about programming aspects of your college's real time effect here. No Audacit...

Re: i want to play through with a delay

Moved to "Audio Processing".

I'll add your vote that Audacity should have real-time effects.

What you could do is get a real time VST host such as http://www.hermannseib.com/english/vsthost.htm or http://www.tobybear.de/p_minihost.html then record the host's output into Audacity.

Re: I need help merging recorded electronic drum tracks

You'll have to wait for a pop/rock engineer to answer, but I would *not* degrade the MP3's even further by re-recording them. Import the MP3's into Audacity, save as a project then record your drum machine only, while playing the tracks in Audacity. Can you set the iMic as playback device in Audacit...

Re: Fixing distortion

The peaks of the zoomed in waveform look like they might be clipped down even though they are not loud:

Re: Fixing distortion

It's not clipped (as in hitting 0 dB maximum volume). There not be much you can do without buying a better microphone. You should go into Windows Sound from the "Hardware and Sound" section of the Control Panel. Choose the "Recording" tab. Select the headset and choose "Prop...

Re: RECORD VINYL TO COMPUTOR

Sorry but I must disagree that the Audacity Manual is "useless and does not show how to record a song". However if you are reading some physical leaflet that came with the turntable, we did not write it. Please try reading Recording with USB turntables or USB cassette decks - Audacity Manu...
