[niwakunn78]

please help.. how can i make my recordings just like a studio recording??

[ca1977a]

@niwakunn78 I don't think Audacity is advanced enough to compete with commercial recording software, but a few things that can help are:

* Keep noise on recorded sound to an absolute minimum, and investigate Audacity's noise removal feature if needed.

* Ensure instruments really are tune. Consider fixing tuning slips in vocals using the Sliding Time Scale/Pitch Shift tool if needed.

* Be prepared to ditch any take that has even a minor noticeable error (quiet note, timing problem, etc.)

[TBC]

[ca1977a]

@niwakunn78 [Continued]

* You often hear parts double-tracked on recordings, especially vocals but also rhythm guitar or others. You can get a more natural effect by recording the same part twice (but timing becomes VERY important) or a tighter effect by using a short delay, possibly combined with a tiny pitch-shift.

* Play with delay and reverb, but don't go wild unless that's the sound you're after.

* Try layering instrument parts, e.g. two rhythm guitar parts with different chord voicings.

Ello! You said you can amplify to make the fade slower, but here's an easier way.  Highlight the last 5-2 seconds of the song. Then click Effects>Fade In/Out

This way, you can have the same level, and fade out when you want, without losing volume.

[XanimekingdomX]

for some reason it wont give me any of the effects, it wont let me click/use them

help??

[vapors420]

[Pearlgirl15]

Is there any freeware program that enables you to split the voice from the music? Please tell me, thx!

[prit123698745]

is there a way to use this to split music wrom voice?? or any other program?

[noahpeterson1]

it wont let me record my voice wat i do????

[kelli010987]

Change the settings in control panel, if the microphone goes into the pink output it has to be set to use that output so go to control panel then sounds, then audio output, it will be set to something you have to change it so its set to whatever your recording from.

[sebi01234]

use hypercam

[overmyhead875]

[bluetech7753]

Hello i like your videos I have also seen your website this is a totoly free recording program right? I hear that it does not save in or support mp3 audio. I do a lot of audio pridutcion for my church. I currently use Adobbe Audition 1.5

[electricshoes84]

hey thanks alot, you really know how to show this in a way that is very understanding.

[hislop]

i wanted to make an hour playlist with only the good parts of the songs and wanted to mix them together in a simple way and this is very simple. thanks for this

[qubodup]

I'm glad the audio quality is good. All tutorials I so far saw for Audacity had ironically terrible voice recordings.

It definitely would help to be able to hear what audio is going on in the computer.

Was it not possible for you to use loudspeakers, so that the microphone could at least record the audio this way?

Also: I do not like your double-fading technique. Why not simply select a shorter part of the track for fading and cutting of the rest?

[voiceover1]

There are many ways to do this differently but I wanted to show a REALLY simple way of doing it without having to edit the music.

If I used speakers then I would feed back on myself.

[qubodup]

> simple

I don't see how the other way is more complicated. But oh well.

> feedback

Oh I see. I thought there was a [ ]checkbox that allowed disabling the mic-audio to go to the speakers but still be recorded.

[voiceover1]

You may be right. I'll look into it.
