Re: Audacity Pro???

I'm not a legal expert... It might be a copyright* violation of the Audacity name but it is legal to modify open source code (as long as the new code is also open source) and I'm pretty sure it's legal to sell open source software. I'm not sure if it's "Audacity Pro" or "Audiotonic" but there is som...

Re: MP3 import stopped working!!!

There was a change that makes Audacity more picky about imperfect MP3s... They fixed one problem but then it turned-out that there are lots of "invalid" (but still working) MP3s floating-around....

Until that's "corrected" there is a work-around using FFmpeg.

Re: Recording Issue

Make sure you've selected the USB device as your Recording Device.

And if you want to hear it through your computer speakers while recording enable Software Playthrough.

Re: Track Labels/Metadata issues

I usually find it more convenient to use a special-purpose tag editor. Even after ripping a CD or downloading MP3s I'll often "fix up" the tags that were pulled from the Internet. You'll would also be able to embed album artwork which the Audacity metadata editor doesn't support, and in most cases a...

Re: classical guitar

The hard part with acoustic guitar (or almost any solo acoustic instrument) is that it's very dynamic (loud and quiet parts) and the quiet parts make it hard to get a good signal-to-noise ratio. I`m not really sure what I`m supposed to do after that..generally I normalize the track ..at this point I...

Re: sounds that appear using effect -> vocal reduction and isolation-> isolate vocals

I can't listen because I'm at work... voices appeared as well as beats (3 to 4 beats per second) as well as a ROTATING SOUND my question concerns the sound that rotates, is this sound the normal consequence of using the effect? in other words, it comes from the software or is it simply a sound inaud...

Re: Install Waves Sibilance plugin in Audacity 2.4.2 Win10 & Mac

The Windows version of Audacity is 32-bits, so yes, only 32-bit plug-ins work.

WAVES does not officially support Audacity and I have no idea if it will work...

Re: Clipping

I can only go up to 24 bit on the mixer...that will be ok ? That's fine. Virtually all audio interfaces & soundcards are 16 or 24-bits. (You can't change the bit depth of the analog-to-digital or digital-to-analog converter but the drivers or software can up-scale or down-scale.) I have Audacity se...
