Audacity adds a random unwanted effect

Post by Xstermin » Tue Apr 27, 2021 6:37 am

When I record audio in audacity, it comes out normal, but if I highlight any part of my audio, it automatically adds reverb and I cant undo the reverb without just deleting the recording. How do I get rid of this?

Windows playback enhancements can automatically add reverb,
here's how to turn them off ... https://youtu.be/sxnUjiGgBaI

[ There could even be another layer of audio enhancements ]
