My problem is with converting 33-1/3 vinyl records that are playing on a Jensen stereo turntable JTA-230 into my MacBook OS X 10.8.5 using Audacity 2.0.6 with a USB 2.0 connection between the turntable and laptop. Thanks for the comprehensive description. I had successfully converted two albums and...

Thank you everyone for your replies. The option of converting into AAC using iTunes does the job. I also tried the custom FFmpeg export but could not get the resulting file to play - probably my lack of knowledge of what to put within the options available. I exported 256 kbps stereo and 320 kbps s...

Have you tried launching Audacity from the terminal by typing: If you get underruns noted in the terminal, try a higher number in the PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC command. If the problem is unchanged, try a lower number.

djames, I am currently dealing with the same issue. Did you have any luck finding a solution? Thanks! Did you look in "Go > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup."? If that says "1 in, 2 out", then it presumably won't record in stereo. You don't say what version of Audacity, what version...

This should, in theory, reduce the file size but more on that later. I chose to export the file in .aac format with quality set to '100' (which is the defau...

Also, if there were an unattended export, what would be the export location and file name? This one isn't hard - if one did this automatically as an option then you need the user to specify the export format, the filename can be taken from the project name and the location can be the same as the pr...

Yup, all those steps have been followed to the t. Volume is at max everywhere (system preferences as indicated in the tutorial, the apps, Soundflowers audio set up...). And everything sounds fine while recording, or just listening without Audacity (rerouting Soundflower), so the speakers haven't di...

Please state the exact three-section version of Audacity from "Help > About Audacity". Check in the device toolbar that you have selected the device that you want to record from. The "host" setting should normally be "MME" unless you want to record sounds that are play...

What is the make and model number of the mic? How does it connect to the computer?

Go back to http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/tu ... n_mac.html and double-check it it step by step.

Are you sure you are playing the songs loud enough in the app?
