Re: Timer recording of Audacity 2.0.1

Recently I had upgraded 2.0.0 to 2.0.1 Then I had noticed that new version of Audacity 2.0.1 does not accept to set the timer recording start and stop time for the same day each other. When I was using version 2.0.0 or prior version, in the calendar appears when I click the downward arrow on the ri...

Re: Deleted file makes Export hang - a repro

Can anyone else repro this? Yes. You are corrupting the Undo History. Your Import preferences are set to allow "On Demand" importing of WAV files (reading uncompressed files directly from the original file rather than copying the audio data into the Audacity Project). When you import a fi...

Re: Transport and Meter toolbars dockable in the Mixer Board

Reading Gale's post I think the master gain should not affect the individual track gain sliders but should instead simply apply gain to the overall mix. This is simpler and to my mind more transparent. It also leaves open the possibility that eventually track envelopes will be reflected in the trac...

Re: Export selection

Look at what format you exported to and what options you chose (the Options... button in the File Export Dialog ). If you added a dot in the filename, add the extension (for example .WAV or .MP3) after the file name. You posted in the 1.3 legacy board. If you are on Windows XP or later, please upgra...

Re: Unable to adjust recording levels

If the turntable has an input slider in Sounds and Audio Devices , try turning that slider down. If your turntable has cables for connecting to speakers, you can also set the turntable to "Line" then connect the cables to a RCA to 1/8 inch adaptor. Then connect the adaptor to line-in of th...

Re: Playback Gone Quiet/Recording Noise

Make sure you are recording whatever input you have connected, not stereo mix. Use headphones to listen to what you are recording. Look at all the sound enhancements in Windows "Sound" Control Panel. Sometimes these settings can create problems but you may find that enabling noise cancella...

Re: Was recording but now it won't record

Is this still a problem? Does Windows Sound Recorder make an audible recording? Are you sure you are selecting the line-in input in Audacity Device Toolbar? Have you looked in Sounds and Audio Devices ( http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=Mixer_Toolbar_Issues#xpcp ) to see if you have knock...

Re: Import files with .MTS extension

Steve, Okay I'll try that. So in other words, I have to take my .MTS file and convert it to another format and then import it into Audacity? Use Media > Convert/Save... in VLC. Save it as "Audio - CD" and add ".wav" (without quotes) to the name of the file. Then import the wav f...
