Audacity Forum

I've been working to export an audio clip I download the other night as a .wav file at the sample format of 16 bit and set rate of 44100Hz so that I can upload it into Second Life. It seems, however, that upon exporting the wav file it reverts the set rate back to 11025Hz. Is there any possible way to get it to stop doing that?


Sorry if this was posted twice....

Change the Project Rate in the lower left.

Also, if you feel like it.

File > Export > Other Uncompressed Files > Options

If you didn't personally record the music or work, then the extra sample rate may not do you a lot of good. The music is pre-broken before you got it. It doesn't get clearer and quieter if you increase the channel quality. You're transmitting muffled audio extraordinarily well.

Also you should change the rates in Audacity Preferences > Quality.

I did change the prefs in quality before even bothering to look in the forums for a solution. I will however try the other options you suggested.

Alrighty. Problem solved with the changing of the project rate in the bottom left corner. Thanks so much.
