Re: Unable to use other builds of lame_enc.dll

Unfortunately, what I'm about to post will not help you use other third party lame_enc.dll's, but it will help you use your own build. I used to use Audacity 1.2.6 with a build of lame_enc.dll from version 3.97. I built lame_enc.dll from source ...

Re: Science Project Help

You might be able to do clarity with Analyze > Spectrum. This is an analysis of one piano note. G two octaves down, I think. http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/piano_G1.jpg So that's G1, not quite falling off the end of the keyboard. Everything to the right of that very high peak is harmonics and overto...

Re: Science Project Help

You can't do "clarity," but you can do volume pretty easily. You can use an expanded version of the volume meters. Click on the right edge of the sound meters and pull to the right. They will get larger and much easier to see. http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/Audacity1_playback.jpg You can e...

How to make sound come from both headphones

... question- but I've been scratching my head like crazy trying to figure it out, so I thought I'd come here and hope some kind-hearted soul could help me out! I have an M-audio fast-track pro, and am using Audacity to try and record some songs. I'm just a simple singer-songwriter- multi-tracking, ...

Re: random static while recording

... for USB Controllers. Is this XP Media Center Edition? A lot of hardware is not compatible with that. Using a different length of USB cable could help. Shorter cables are less noisy in my experience, if they are long enough to prevent interference between computer and equipment. Does the computer ...
