Hi All, Here is the situation. I have two laptops at home, both dells. Let's call one "bad", and the other "good". If I create an mp3 file on the bad one by means of Audacity, my mp3 players won't play it. (I reinstalled Audacity to start from scratch). If I download an mp3 file...

Voicermeeter has a recorder. You use Audacity for post-production processing? I haven't dug in the manual yet, but I wonder if you can record multi-channels. Yes as I understand it the integrated recorder in "Voicemeeter Banana" can record up to 8 channels. The standard "Voicemeeter&...

If the Behringer recording becomes muted then there probably isn't a software or drivers fix, but there is no harm checking Windows Update and Device Manager. Also you could try a different USB cable and be sure to reboot the computer often. Do a proper "cold boot" (Windows key then hold S...

The first thing I would like to do is excerpt specific clips from an MP3 file, and save them separately. Select/highlight the part you want to save. File -> Export Selected Audio. As a newbie, I didn't know how to make a selection. I found nothing on that topic in a Help Search. After a bit of hack...

The link Behringer gives just leads to http://www.asio4all.com/?MyCheckbox=This... which won...

Audacity does not apply effects unless you explicitly apply them to already recorded audio. If you are recording the guitar using the built-in audio device you could try turning off Windows Sound Enhancements: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/faq_recording_troubleshooting.html#enhancements . If yo...

We don't help with covert surveillance recordings or recordings that are required for court testimony. Use your favourite search engine to look for "audio forensics" and contact your solicitor and law enforcement if you have concerns.

The next thing both of you could try is to see if the 2.1.3-alpha Nightly Build has the same issue: http://www.audacity.homerow.net/index.php?dir=mac/audacity-nightly-2016.10.07-06.00-2add979/&file=audacity-macosx-2.1.3-2add979.zip . Be sure to quit 2.1.2 before running 2.1.3-alpha. If that doe...
