Re: Guitar amp simulators for Audacity?

A much better solution, get an amplifier and a microphone. Yeah I already do that but it's hard to record when you have roommate's blasting music constantly (because the mic would pick up that noise in addition to the guitar). I was hoping for a quieter solution, without spending money on hardware....

Guitar amp simulators for Audacity?

Hello,

I'm looking to record my guitar directly into Audacity, but I don't know how to use an amp simulator with it. I also don't know what to get that would be compatible with Audacity.

Any suggestions?

Need help with mastering a track

I recorded guitar for a song and it sounds pretty lo-fi... like it needs more treble or something. What can I do? I tried the Equalizer filter and it didn't give me the results I wanted.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Re: Sample looping/Sequencing

Wow... there's a "Repeat" effect now? Is this new in 1.2.6.?

Thanks!

Sample looping/Sequencing

Hello. I was wondering if there was a more efficient way to loop a sample (imported audio file) in Audcaity, besides copying/pasting a sample over and over again, having to match each occurrence with the beat? Perhaps there's a plug-in out there or something? What I've done in the past is used the E...

Re: Beat Matching

Well, I did some Googling and found a program from http://www.mixmeister.com that claims to accurately count a song's BPM. I tried it with one of my own songs (because I already know their BPMs for a fact) and quickly realized it was a piece of shit. The best thing I could find is this: http://www.a...

Re: Recording Levels 101

Hmmm, I don't have a "Stereo Mix" option. I notice that whenever I record from Line In or Mic it only records in the left channel. Is this a bad thing?

Re: Recording Levels 101

Did you try increasing the volume for your mic input? You can do that in Audacity as well as your sound card settings.

Beat Matching

I want to do a remix of a song (actually it's more like using short samples of a song as the backbone of a gabber/hardcore song that I want to create) but the biggest pain is trying to match the BPM on my drum machine with the beat used in the song that's being sampled. Is there some type of plug-in...

Which effect...?

Hello. I'm looking for an effect that is commonly used by Digital Hardcore and Breakcore artists (Venetian Snares, Alec Empre, Sizuo, EC8OR, etc.). It's a type of delay that adds distortion, slows the sample down, and modifies the pitch all at once. I hear it all the time but don't know what it is o...
