I use an Edirol UA-1EX - unfortunately these are largely unavailable as Roland has stopped manufacturing it - but I do note that there is one currently available on eBay with no bids and a starting pric...

Re: Audio clipping when recording from SPDIF

When I converted my MiniDiscs I experienced this with a few of them - and bearing in mind that these were all home recordings made by I was surprised by the level differences and the clipping. The only solution I found was to record those particular MiniDiscs by taking the analog RCA out from the Mi...

Re: Highlight Problem

I may be wrong, but I'm guessing that Bob has inadvertently pressed either the "Envelope" tool button or the "Multi-tool" button. If so try clicking on the "Cursor" tool button - the I-beam See this page in the Manual: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/tools_toolbar....

If a Noise Profile exists, that Noise Profile will be used. If a Noise Profile does not exist: If the Chain is applied to files, the first file (all of it) is used to create the Noise Profile. If the Chain is applied to the current project, the current Selection is used to create the Noise Profile....
