Re: Did I just waste money on a VST Plugin ?

"X86" =32-bit . There's usually the option to try-before-you-buy with plug-ins, to check they work for you before parting with money. If your Windows computer has a 64-bit Operating System it can run both 32-bit and 64-bit software. But a 64-bit version of Audacity is not yet available fo...

Re: Podcast recording on Audacity using 2 microphones and the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 (3rd Gen)

In case I wandered too far off. Plug the XLR microphones into the 2i2 and plug the 2i2 USB data cable into the computer. You know you're successful if you can yell into the microphones and get the 2i2 knobs to flash and turn colors. Search computer devices for the one that corresponds to the 2i2 whi...

Re: are there specific kinds of mics that can help with your audio?

What kind of recording are you doing? For "serious good quality" recording you'll either need a stage or studio microphone. The most common type of microphone used in pro studios for vocals and almost everything else is a "Directional Large Diaphragm Condenser". Dynamic "han...

Re: searching forum topics, and setting Audacity to be default for .mp3

So, once again: Any way to make Audacity the default program to open .mp3? To associate an MP3 file with Audacity in Windows 10, so that Audacity will open the file when it's double clicked, start by right-clicking on an MP3 file. When the menu opens go down and click on "Open with". If a...

There was a fan on in another room. I turned it off and tried again. Here is another unedited sample.

Is Audacity on Linux a linuxVST 2.4 compatible host?

Hi, I've done a search of the forums for this question but results aren't clear to me. The Linux Studio Plugins Project provides some useful plugins in various formats of which I've concluded that the VST is the most easily recognised by Audacity (just drop the files into a user's .vst directory and...

Dragging and protecting improvements

When I attempt to drag over tracks in a window, if the mouse accidentally enters - even momentarily - another window, then those tracks are highlighted - and they stay highlighted even if the drag ends back in the original track window. Surely if the drag starts and ends in the same window it should...
