Re: Voice Fine Instrumental Track Stutters

Please explain in more detail what you are trying to achieve. "What U hear" is for recording computer playback. What is a "voice fine instrumental track"? An alternative to recording computer playback using What U hear is WASAPI loopback recording. See http://manual.audacityteam....

Re: Sound Card Impact on Recording Quality - Aud 2.1.1

WASAPI loopback recording is digital so it won't be affected (much) at the recording stage by a bad/cheap sound card, but if you have a bad sound card or you are listening through built-in or cheap computer speakers, the playback of what you recorded won't sound good. If you want to be 100% sure tha...

Re: Cant cut audio track without pausing

You can't cut while playing or paused.

Try selecting what you want to cut, then press C on your keyboard to "Cut Preview". This plays the audio before and after the cut. You can adjust the length to be played before and after the cut in Playback Preferences.

Audacity does not support recording directly from Skype. There are lots of alternatives such as http://voipcallrecording.com/, http://www.ifree-recorder.com/ or http://atdot.ch/scr/ .

Re: keyboard shortcut to repeat a specific amplification val

Chain seems to only offer changes to an entire file. Correct. But why do you want to do it little piece by little piece? Gale, CMD+R only repeats the most recently used effect. As I said. Steve, do you know of a plugin that does the EXACT OPPOSITE of +1db? I'm searching the forums now. See the atta...

Re: Audio file not playing

The file is corrupted - "Moov atom not found" according to FFmpeg. This "moov atom" should be at the end of a .3gP file. I don't see why the file should work on Android either, unless the file got corrupted in the transfer to PC. Have you tried transferring it again? If the file ...
