Re: capability

I use Brian Davis; excellent ClickRepair. It costs a little (C $40 IIRC) but is excellent value for the money - see this sticky forum thread: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=1994 It also has a steep learning curve so you need to be prepared to put effort into it to get top re...

Re: Audio is ruined after exporting

it also sounds bad in Quicktime. When playing the exact same .wav file in iTunes or VLC, it sounds perfectly fine just like in Audacity. iTunes uses QuickTime. It does not seem to be an Audacity fault if the Audacity export plays OK in VLC. Does the file sound bad in QuickTime if you play it throug...

Re: Laptop crashed during recording

Are you sure you gave Audacity the new file? I don't have many more ideas other than trying to hack the file into a regular project. You can recover without the AUP or autosave file but you have to go though hoops to get absolutely every block file with the channels ordered correctly left and right....

Re: Headphone Distortion, Low Volume

What version of Windows? Do you have separate speakers and headphones devices and the default Windows playback device is set to speakers? That could be an explanation.

Re: Asio device setup window

Audacity doesn't have an ASIO Setup. Audacity can't choose which inputs to use yet - you have to pick all of them and delete any unwanted tracks that you record. How many recording channels are shown in Device Toolbar? Is there a "master" device you can choose which records all channels? C...

Re: Installing 2.0.5

If you install Audacity 2.0.x to the same folder as the previous installation of Audacity, the Desktop shortcut pointing to it should just get overwritten. It does for me.
