Yes, Normalize and Amplify work on the highest peak. I found a nyquist prompt code (from an old post: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=55843#p138795) that supposedly changes the RMS value of the track: (setq target-level -12) (mult s (/ (db-to-linear target-level)(peak (rms s) ...

like it's through a phone or speaker? Try a bandpass filter to kill the high & low frequencies. In Audacity, I believe you need to do that in two steps: Effect -> Classic Filters -> Low-pass (at about 4000Hz) to reduce the high frequencies (treble). Then a high-pass filter at about 400Hz to red...

Should I also set the default format to 24 bit PCM as well as 96000Hz sample rate? This would keep the bit depth consistent from recording through to saving the file as a 24 bit wav file. With the "Exclusive Mode" boxes checked and using WASAPI host in Audacity, the only component of Defa...

Try connecting speakers or headphones to the DAC and unmute its output in pavucontrol.

If you use the (hw) device for output instead of pulse, unmute the DAC output in ALSAmixer.

You can probably get more help if necessary on the Fedora forums http://fedoraforum.org/.

It is much better to start a new topic rather than jump into someone else's months old topic. In particular, El Capitan is no longer a beta, non-released operating system. I started a new topic for you. I get: 10/19/15 12:30:58.917 AM Audacity[8561]: WARNING: The Gestalt selector gestaltSystemVersio...

However do note that the solution of changing project rate is not foolproof and has just as often been reported not to work (or only to work sometimes) which is probably why none of us mentioned it. Assuming you are choosing the pulse device to record from in Audacity, pulse should be able to handl...

"Could not find any audio devices. You will not be able to play or record audio." Just thought I'd add that this Windows 10 problem has been an Audacity-killer for me. I tried to update some drivers, but whether they're the right ones or not I don't know. It didn't help. I don't know what...

Windows Media will not playback music acquired from Numark turntable. I am using a windows 7 laptop with both Mozilla Firefox and Windows Explorer. When I delete Audacity from the computer, the files play fine. File extension is audacity's: wma Error message says: Windows Media cannot playback this...

I have been able to get a clearer recording by downloading the latest version of Audacity and reducing the recording volume to 0.03, however it still isn't really clear. If I reduce it to 0.02 it's not loud enough. It seems a bit strange to have to reduce the recording volume by this much. Does any...

Audacity already copies MP3 files in, so there is no Audacity setting that will help if MP3 files also don't import on some machines. QoS settings (which determine which packets are prioritised) may be of some relevance here, and can usually be prioritised by application in server OS'es, as well as ...
