Re: Recording Volume Low

Macs don't provide any level controls for most USB audio devices, which is why the Audacity recording level slider is greyed out.

Re: Audio decibel level changes after exporting

MP3 files can store values above 0 dB, but can the digital to analogue converter in your sound card send signals at +2 dB without distorting in your playback equipment? Probably not. Gale In some ways I'm more confused than when I started. I'm starting out with mp3's, and just trying to make sure th...

Re: print out manual

If you use Adobe Acrobat you may be able to save the site http://manual.audacityteam.org/ as a PDF. The PDF may not have all the features of the HTML pages such as clickable image maps or tooltips. Then you can print the PDF if you have enough ink - there are over 250 pages.

Re: control of playback levels

I'll ask for forgiveness in advance if I'm missing something obvious - I'm editing up to 16 tracks of wav files recorded on two Zoom R16's (linked via USB) and imported into Audacity. It seems as if sometimes I can control audio playback levels using the sliding fader in each audio track, and somet...

Re: store default audio export settings in ".aup"-file

Can ".aup"-files contain default audio export settings? No. An AUP file is by definition a per project file. So when I open the file and click on "Export Audio...", these settings (file type, path etc.) are suggested as default values? If not, is the information about those defa...

Re: Fail to replace Audacity.

Imagine, I've downloaded the program, just deleted it without unpacking, and I can not restore it from the recycle bin because of this message. How can it be? Please, correct. I think you need to correct it yourself, or download the file again. If you are restoring to Program Files you will need Ad...

Neither of those is true. But Audacity can only export MIDI from MIDI, not from audio.

We have a page about MIDI that lists some possible applications to convert audio to MIDI: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Midi.

If you don't then you would not be able to run Audacity. Those files are essential and shipped with Audacity.
