Audacity Forum

Hey, First post, but I made sure to search and use the FAQ before asking. I'm producing an audiobook, so I'm using all mono tracks, one track per chapter. Yet, for the last couple chapters that I went to edit, I'd open the file and find that there would be extra empty tracks added that I know I didn...

I am using Audacity to get them to a common level without the use of ReplayGain, as the player in my vehicle, although it plays FLAC, no one is able to tell me if it...

I want to record my digital piano ( Kawai CN25 ) using a cable that goes into my laptop where I plug my headphones in, and goes into my digital piano where I also usualy plug my headphones in... The headphone-signal from one of the two headphone sockets on the keyboard needs to go to a "line-i...

Some computers can convert their mic-in socket into a line-in socket, under software control. (My Dell laptop can do that) If your HP computer can do that, you can connect the line-out of your amp to the dual-purpose mic/line-in socket on the computer without buying any additional electronics.
