Hi Sanlorenzo, recovery in 1.2.x is much harder than in 1.3.x. In 1.2 it has to be done manually and is often not successful. In 1.3 ist is automatic (on next startintg up Audacity after a crash) - but even in 1.3 it doesn't always work. You will almost certainly be much better off using 1.3.12, the...

... I spent all day restoring a very scratched LP ... You should have a look at Brian Davies' excellent ClickRepar software - it costs $40 but is well worth it IMHO - he does let you have a 21-day free trial so you can see if it works for you.

You are almost certainly trying to import a file type that Audacity does not support. Audacity Supports WAV, MP3, OGG and FLAC & MP2 in 1.3. The fast play is Audacity 1.2's inelegant way of telling you that it can't handle the file type you've given it - in 1.3.x a more appropriate and informati...

I will do some tests later when I next reconnect the TT and try recording the intro from my Stereo LP of Sgt. Pepper which has very distinct L&R channels. Aaaah - so it only sort-of does mono :) Audacity 1.3.12, Windows XP-HE-SP3, Edirol UA-1EX stereo external USB soundcard in advanced mode, us...

Don't know why you're playing the CD in an external burner when you should be able to just rip the tracks off the CD. The one circumstance that will need you to record a CD rather than rip it is if you have a CD which has the wretched copy protection on it. You will not even be able to play such a ...

Two techniques I use: 1) If I am listening to the LP as I record it I place a temporary track marker (k/b shortcut CTRL+M ) at the inter-track gap. Ctrl+M marks the current cursor record or playback position. These markers can then be slid around later for more accurate positioning with a bit of zoo...

But on a more serious note ... I'm going to project here and say Windows Doesn't Do Mono. My Windows-XP-HE-SP3 machine does seem to "do mono" - I can certainly set Audacity to be single channel channel mono (and this is with my stereo USB Edirol soundcard connected with inputs from my ster...

Ooh, can I play too I know that you and Frank were planning to disconnect me, and I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow to happen ... this mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it ... ... My mind is going. I can feel it. I can feel it. My mind is going. There is no question...
