Udate on the ART DJ PRE II preamp. Just a brief update on the pre-amp that I bought a week or so ago, now that I have been using it for a little while. I am still very impressed with the performance of this little pre-amp - and it has reduced the clutter on my desktop. I am now very glad that I boug...

I would like to now make Slide Shows using all my photographs BEFORE digital i.e old holiday and family photographs. Has anyone tried this????? Is it a viable proposition???? I should think I will need a decent printer/scanner, mine are very ordinary??? Hello again Desmo - yes it is perfectly feasi...

Yes but, no but .... You don't actually get your MP3 in Audacity - when you import or open an MP3 in Audacity, Audacity "adds water" to it to turn it into an Audacity project - .aup and .au files. So AFAIK it retains no knowledge of the bitrate of your imported MP3 - which means that you w...

Ah, I think I understand better what you are asking now. What you need to do is to go to Edit >Preferences > Audio I/O and uncheck the box that says Software Playthrough (play new track while recording it) - and make sure that the box above Play other tracks while recording new one is checked on (an...

I don't thinh that you can do this with Audacity - however you should be able to do it with the O/S of your computer. Windows you can use Windows Explorer and right click on the .MP3 filename to examine its " Properties " - there is a similar function on MACs I believe, but I do not know t...

Koz, advice is (as always) excellent. It only gets complicated and un-streamlined if you are working with multi-track projects. The problem there being that when you export the project, Audacity mixes&renders the multiple tracks into a single stereo pair. So if you need to retain the multi-track...

Basically you can't "configure for record" (apart from setting the project sample rate and bitrate - and number of channels to record).

Audacity does not offer any real-time processing as you record - all effects must be applied after capture to the already recorded signal.

George,

you've obviously discovered that you can have 1.2 and 1.3 both installed on the same PC.

Just be aware that once a 1.2 project has been opened and saved in 1.3 it can never be reopened in 1.2 - this also obviosly applies too to projects created in 1.3.

This is a limitation of Audacity 1.2.x - label handliing is one of the much improved areas in the 1.3.x beta versions of Audacity. It's one of the reasons I shifted to 1.3 several months ago - I now never use 1.2 as the later versions of 1.3 seem well stable for the work I do on Audacity which is LP...
