Re: HELP ME PLEASE

Brian, Iv'e no idea how you can connect this device to your PC without the USB interface - however, since you have the optional CD burner, then surely you can burn a CD and rip the WAV files from that CD with a CD ripping program - and then open this WAVs in Audacity. Not the most elegant way - but ...

Re: Feature differences between 1.2.5 and 1.2.6

I seem to remember a posting from one of the developers a while back that said they fixed a lot of 1.2.5 bugs in the 1.2.6 release - so you should get a less buggy version.

Can't say that I noticed the bugs though when I ran 1.2.5 - I have changed to 1.3 now and use that all the time.

Re: splitting MP3 files, then exporting multiple files

Almost certainly you have included in the label of the second section a special character that your OS doesn't like in filenames. (In windows for example you can't have track names with / in them). Just simplify your track names and try the export over again. You can always edit the MP3 tags later t...

Re: Recording Phone calls

You know you can open two Audacitys, right? I don't mean 1.2.6 and 1.3.3 although that might work, too. I mean click on the launch icon twice. I get two control panels. I don't know if they will record like that, but it's worth a shot. This may be where the Linux and Mac installs have it over the W...

Re: Nebie Having Trouble

Jack, the PM system is very slow, yours hasn't arrived in my inbox yet. I think they sit in your outbox for a long time till they eventually get a prod to move on out.

And do I imbibe? Do sharks bite? I'll gladly take you up on that offer sometime .....

Glad to have been able to help you.

WAV=>CD=>ripper WAV qaulity

A follow up question on Audio quality: I take an Aduacity project (typically for me an LP/tape transcription) and export it as a multiple set of WAVS - and normally I produce a music CD with it (using RecordNow that came shipped with my Dell PC). The question is, if I later take the music CD that I ...

Hey Andy, many thanks for that tip - I thought those were just display boxes - I never realized you could reposition the cursor by entring data.

Re: Using Audacity with USB Audio Input

I use a setup almost exactly as you describe. Technicics TT => preamp/amp via RCA => UA-1EX via RCA => PC via USB - and it works absolutely fine. And as Koz says - I remove my clicks manually (with the Repair funcytion in Audacity 1.3) - and his estimate of a couple of days to clean an album is pret...

Audio quality Audacity=>WAV=>Audacity

Will I lose Audio quality if I take an Audacity project, export it to WAV - and then at a later date re-import the WAV file into Audacity to work on it? I ask this question as I am planning to import a whole bunch of vinyl albums, store them temporarily - and then once, the recordings are all finish...

Re: Leopard Compatibility

BTW, how is your USB turntable? Does it seem "decent" enough to put up with some vigorous, innexperienced use? I'm finding Tonearm Parts and parts for older Technics SP-series platters getting harder to find at reasonable cost, and the limited use they get doesn't justify keeping them alive in a st...
