Re: Can't go above -6 dB

It's a carbon-based bug. I don't think so, Michael is on Windows. It's basically an Audacity limitation that occurs with many but not all interfaces. Though Audacity 1.2 was sometimes reported not to have this problem, which I don't really understand. Be clear you can continue to do what you're doi...

Re: Isolate selection of a recording

I think the square brackets are a convenient way to create selections for labelling as region labels.

Re: Audacity locking up issue

2. EL Cap was running some sort of encryption via "VAULT"? It may have been causing some issues according to a Mac guy I know. So we adjusted that. FileVault is not compatible with most audio recording applications. Is the case as strong as that? I don't know, but the following links sugg...

You maybe mean Linux.

Re: No sound when I play the exported MP3 file

If you would like connecting the converter not to change the Windows default playback device, connect the converter, use Windows Sound (Recording tab) to make the computer speakers the default playback device, then disconnect the converter. Next time you connect the converter, the computer speakers ...

Re: Can't go above -6 dB

Please tell us your version of Audacity (see the pink panel at the top of the page) and tell us make and model numbers of the recording device and microphone you are using and tell us how those connect to the computer. If you are recording into one side of an interface with left and right inputs, or...

Re: No sound when I play the exported MP3 file

LAME is only for exporting MP3.

Most likely the act of connecting the cassette converter has switched the system default playback device to the converter. To fix it please see Why have I lost sound after connecting a USB device on Windows?.

Re: Unable to use Audacity streaming recorder with Realtek

I discovered that if I go into the Realtek HD Audio Mgr and disable the speakers as the default device, sound is captured by Audacity (both MME/WASAPI), but of course there is no sound from the speakers (and worse, I have to uninstall/reinstall the Realtek driver to get speaker sound to work again)...

Re: Low and high pass filters not working in Audacity 2.1.2

Previous versions would allow me drag and drop a sound file to Audacity, I tried in the 2.1.2 version and did not work. Thank you, but this is already noted in the 2.1.2 Release Notes . You can ...
