Re: Unable to set input to Stereo

Have just upgraded from v1.2.6 (supplied with Limit TT-U1200 USB turntable) and can no longer set input channels to 2 (stereo). Anyone have any bright ideas? Do you mean you only get the choice of 1 (mono) in the Audacity Devices Preferences? This is a known bug in that case that affects a small mi...

Re: Bug : Import 0 Bytes raw audio file causes 1.3.13 to cra

Import Raw in 1.3.14 doesn't crash on Win 7 x64 with an artificial zero bytes WAV file where all the data was deleted in a hex editor. What exactly do you hope to see with such a file?

Re: I cannot record? What am i doing wrong?

Did you try "Amplifying" the flat line? yes, it did nothing. Select the part you amplified and try Effect > Amplify again. What does it say in the box for "New Peak Amplitude"? I agree that if you do not see the Line-in meter in "Sound" bouncing it suggests at best the...

Re: Help opening audio

How did you rip the tracks from the CD? If you ripped them to WMA format, 1.2 cannot open the files. If you get the latest 1.3.13 Beta and install the optional FFmpeg library to your computer, Audacity can import the WMA as long as Windows Media Player was not set to encrypt the files so that only M...

Re: How do I add reverb with GVerb?

I have audacity version 1.2, and I'm trying to figure out how to add a little reverb to both a Mozart and a Beethoven sonata I've recorded (solo piano). I want the effect of a small performance hall, but no matter how I set the effects, it only sounds like the piano is in a huge cavern or something...

Re: What is the maximum MP3 filesize?

You could also try MP3DirectCut - there should be a help file included.

Re: Append Import

Is "~/" also used on Mac? Yes. I'm still thinking that a cut-down version specifically for recovering unedited Audacity 1.2.x recordings could be useful. The Help screen(s) could be targeted specifically for the task and there would be no need for the filelist.txt or format conversion fea...

Re: Legal Issues with book and cd

I am in the process of writing a book on nature sounds and want to include pictures of waveform views and spectrum views of the sounds I have recorded. I am also going to include a cd of my sounds. Do I need to have written approval from Audacity to include pictures in a published book on nature so...
