I've decided I much prefer Audacity to Garage band. Audacity's more intuitive. So I want revert to Audacity with my new sound card. But has the mapping problem been solved? There has been no more work on this recently. Of course if you compile Audacity you can try the patch yourself. If the patch n...

Re: Converting Linear PCM 24 bit 48 kHz recordings?

I don't understand why the file is called "sinewave-raw-8bit-unsigned-pcm.wav" when it is a signed file.

As I understand it, WAV cannot encode signed 8-bit PCM, so it seems a strange choice to record in, as is recording with reduced dynamic range.

Re: Trim Silence

My problem is that the "Trim Silence" is not in the plugin list when I click "File" -> "Edit Chain" -> "Insert". The first post in this topic says This effect is supported in Chains in Audacity 2.0.1 and later. You can get the latest Audacity 2.0.5 from here:...

Re: May I record several (>20) voicemail at once?

More specifically, I'd use Audacity to connect my iPhone directly to my PC, per CNET's video tutorial touting and highly recommending Audacity.

I mean that DMG's are mounted as a device. You can eject the DMG bottom left of the Finder window. You cannot trash the DMG unless you eject it.
