Re: Really low volume level recording from turntable

INote the rec level is all the way up. We can't see where the Audacity input level is in your image. Gale Isn't it the mic, in he right upper corner? Yes, the right-hand half of Mixer Toolbar, but the image is so wide that I can't see Mixer Toolbar unless I paste the image URL into a web browser to...

Re: Save - sample rate

I recorded some audio at 32Kbps. I made a pitch change, and then exported the file. It saved it at 128Kbps, creating a file far too large. Is there a way I can select the sample rate for saving? The bit rate (kbps) is where Koz told you - click the "Options..." button. The sample rate (Hz...

Re: How to delete & replace an audio track on a video file.

For an open source alternative you could try Avidemux . Generally free video editors don't have very advanced audio editing. If you need to edit the audio in Audacity, there is an Audio Menu in Avidemux where you can set it to use your Audacity edited audio file instead of the audio track on the vid...

Re: Effects menu extends below screen bottom

Any more info by any chance? If not, is there any further testing I can do to help support fixing the issue in future updates? I tried it on Windows 8 Enterprise (the same laptop that I run Windows 7 on). I don't see the problem at the largest 1366x768 resolution it supports. I tried upside-down la...

Re: Audacity lowers volume when opening

I do have the latest Realtek HD audio drivers (Apr 2013). Of course, they even recommend getting drivers directly from the computer manufacturer, but Dell hasn't provided any update for more than a year, and the latest Realtek driver solved some crackling I was getting with the old Dell driver. So,...

Re: Working with unbalanced stereo

let's say you want a EQ-specific stereo widening effect for one channel- for example a snare that is panned to one side and you want it to show up in the other, also. It's a bit hard to see wood for trees here. ;) Is what I have quoted the main question? I DL'd the Stereo Widener and Channel Mixer ...

Re: Really low volume level recording from turntable

INote the rec level is all the way up. We can't see where the Audacity input level is in your image. Is the Audacity input slider greyed out on maximum? If so, Audacity cannot control the input level and there may not even be a system slider for it. To check, you want to right-click over the AT-LP6...

Re: Recording on top of recording

I tried to do what Koz said. I clicked mute and all sound went off. I either hear everything at once or I hear nothing with the mute. The Mute or Solo buttons we mean are on each track: http://manual.audacityteam.org/m/images/d/dd/TrackPanelNew.png I cannot click a track because they are not separa...

Re: Audacity lowers volume when opening

Yes, when I launch 2.0.3, it not only causes the device slider in the mixer to completely lower, but also the application sounds and even my browser slider. Everything. (I was seeing it anyway, as my computer has an onscreen display that shows changes in volume, screen brightness, etc.) With Audaci...

Re: first part of recording is gone

Look at Edit > Preferences: Directories and set the temporary directory somewhere that has sufficient space (and is not subject to space quotas) and where you have permanent permission to write to. If you are short of space, open Explorer, right-click over the drive you are using, choose "Prope...
