...unless you literally capture the radio broadcast. Those are stabilized at the radio station and you don't need post production for those at all. Koz But even with that you can oversaturate the signal and push the recording into clipping unless you preset the recording level carefully. I regularl...

Gale, I don't think that bobwd is reporting "freeze" behaviour with the timer - rather he seems to get the same behaviour as me i.e. the timed recording not stopping at the pre-set time. I note your comment about changes in the Windows system clock setting while the recording is in progres...

I downloaded 1.3.8 last weekend, and after running the standard installation procedure, Audacity won't run (even from the "Launch Audacity Now" window at the end of the install procedure). I still have 1.3.7 installed, which works well. Any experience from other Vista users? There was a p...

My understanding is that the control of such functionality is down to what the Mic and its associate ...

This is a known bug which has been discussed in previous threads with one of the Develeopers, Gale Andrews. It existed in earlier versions of 1.3 and persists in 1.3.8. The problem as that it is a somewhat elusive bug. It happens on my PC's sometimes but not always. At first I thought that it was wh...
