Drag and drop of what exactly? If it is a file, please give the extension of the file (the three or four letters after the dot). How are you dragging exactly, to the Audacity icon on the desktop, or into the Audacity window? If you mean Audacity project files (AUP), you cannot drag and drop them int...

Unfortunately that guide was written for Mac computers. Your input in Device Toolbar will look something like "Line in (<name of your sound device>)". If your laptop only has a mic input and you cannot change it to line level input, you will get poor quality - perhaps only mono. In that ca...

Is the game audio something you are hearing? If so and you use Soundflower , make "Soundflower (2 ch)" the default output device in Apple Audio MIDI Setup, set up Skype to use "Soundflower (2 ch)" as the input and output, then Audacity to record from "Soundflower (2 ch)"...

Hello, I was playing around with my music and I was wondering how to put an effect from the beginning to a particular point in the music. Right now, I am trying to use Sliding Time Scale/Pitch Shift and make the music completely go down at a particular point. Help! Drag-select in the blue waves fro...

(by e-mail) well I chose Wasabi and it records the music fine but now it doesn't here my voice. I feel so inept when it comes to these applications. The other dropdowns don't have any other choices other than Realtek speakers. What is it exactly that you want to record? You seem to say that WASAPI ...

My Audacity 2.0.4 will not record music from Vanbasco. I have used an older version and it worked fine. Can you help. I love sing every day and have been for several years. I have a brand new Toshiba laptop. Just can't figure it out. It's like the voice trumps over the music. But then I just starte...

The problem with 1.3 is because you have enabled CleanSpeech Mode in the Interface Preferences. But you must remove 1.3 and install 2.0.4 instead, because we will not help you with the 1.3 version any longer. So, open the Plug-ins folder in your installation of 1.3 and copy any plug-ins that you add...

Effect > Equalization has some presets already. There are some presets for old gramophone records here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/EQCurvesDownload There are a number of presets in a few of the posts in this very long topic: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=33824 . See t...

The issue is not of high playback volume the output has very little bass and the treble is very high and shrilly. I even went to EFFECT and made sure that the Bass/Treble and Equalization are all at zero. That would not make any difference unless you were actually applying those effects to the audi...

I would guess the compilation problem is due to the additional support for WAV metadata that came in with 2.0.4 - perhaps another include is wanted. I'll see if I can find anything out. 2.0.3 includes the effects shortcuts though import and export of those shortcuts is broken in 2.0.3 (but fixed in ...
