Thanks for the clarification Gale. I agree that for a very small amount of clipping the difference is negligible, but Franky666 wrote that he was using the Limiter with settings: "Soft Clip, 0, 0, -10, 25, No" These setting produce a significant amount of clipping when applied to a tone w...

This is what I get when using the clipping settings in the Limiter effect. The first half is soft clipping at -10 dB, the second half is hard clipping at -10 dB. To me the change in sound is immediately obvious. Is it not obvious to you? That is obvious, but with a sine tone 0.8 or 0.3 amplitude in...

I just tested with 2.1.2 RC1 and have no problems with the Export list. I also de-Retinized 2.1.1 and that works too. OK thanks, I closed the bug report that we had open for that. A couple minor things I noticed with 2.1.2 RC1: the left panel is fuzzy (not "retina") This is with Retinizer...

Assuming you are using the "pulse" or "default" playback device this is a known issue. Please see here for workarounds: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Linux_Issues#pulse.

You could perhaps Edit > Duplicate... the whole track, Tracks > Stereo Track to Mono then try this script on the duplicate track: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?p=241775#p241775 . Use Legacy version 3 syntax in Nyquist Prompt. If it works, the audio will be trimmed to the bell sound ins...

I guess you have used Retinizer on Audacity which causes this issue. See http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=86330 . If so it would be very helpful to us if you could use "Audacity 2.1.2 RC1 (for testing)" from http://www.fosshub.com/Audacity.html/ . That version is buil...

Look at Edit > Preferences... then "Directories". This shows the temporary folder Audacity records or imports to before you save an Audacity project. Make sure you have permission to write to that folder (right-click over it in File Explorer, then choose "Properties"). Also make ...

Audacity only records from one source at a time. So if you were wanting to record your mic and gameplay simultaneously in Audacity then you can only do that by feeding the mic into the output and recording from stereo mix or similar input for recording computer playback. If you only want to record t...

There have been references to 'stereo mix' in this thread. I just upgraded from win 7 to win 10 and lost stereo mix - nowhere to be found. I have the Realtek HD Audio system. I went through all the usual driver update stuff to no avail. And of course no ability to record with Audacity anything play...

Hi Gale Sorry to trouble you again but suddenly the recording volume control has been disabled after a windows 10 64 bit update. It works when using MME but not WASAPI. I have reinstalled Audacity but that didn't solve the problem. It will almost certainly be an audio drivers change. If you have ju...
