Very easy - but then I had RTFMd the instructions

Had I not done so I probably would have thought WTF

normally you'd hook up your rca cables from the cassette player to the rca jacks on the adapter and the usb cable from the adapter to a usb port on your computer... But not in this case - the poster has an integrated tapeplyer/USB device so only the USB cable will be used. photoman's advice holds g...

Just did a more careful test on the levels, using two 30 second bursts of generated sound wave - sound level remained constant throughout, nic eone :) The shape looks the same as the Pro-fade-out, is it? Does it do the same pro-trickery stuff as PFO or is is just straightford shaped amplitude fades....

Another way to judge the levels is to switch the view to Waveform (dB) rather than the linear view. To do this one-off click on the Litttle-Black-Downward-Pointing-Triangle in the Track Control Panal to the left of the waveform - you will observe that in this mode the same signal fills the waveform ...

I don't propose working on the "advanced feature" unless there is definitely a demand because it will be a lot of work sorting out how best to implement it. Just writing to say that it would be possible . How about as a first step writing a proposal in the Wiki with mockup GUI etc. (as th...

To be honest after working a few albums I think manual is quicker... I totally agree (and I've done hundreds) I place markers with Ctrl+M as the LP is playing and recording in Audacity. I clean up the inter-track gaps to true silence and usually do fades (in and out) to the silence. Often I shorten...
