    Hey, this video is an awesome intro to using audacity that gets one started right away. I've checked out some of you other videos, all great stuff, full of information and a great pace. You have a new subscriber! One question, I'm using the latest version of Audacity and I can't figure out how to drag the timelines to line them up the way you do. Every time I try to click on a track to drag it left or right, it just selects the track, or sets a cursor. Thank you:)

  • @MikeRussell

    @MikeRussell

    10 ай бұрын

    Hey, thank you so much for subscribing and for the kind words! Regarding your question about dragging timelines in Audacity... make sure you're using the "Time Shift Tool." You can find it in the toolbar or press "F5" to activate it. Once this tool is selected you should be able to click and drag your tracks left or right to line them up.

  • @ponderingnugget

    @ponderingnugget

    10 ай бұрын

    Hmmm, the F5 key has now effect on the current tool I have selected. I found some menu commands under the tracks-align tracks drop down that allow me to snap the tracks to a preset cursor. My version of Audacity doesn't seem to have a time shift tool. Oh well, I'll crack on without it. Thank you for the reply:) @@MikeRussell

    Hello Mike, I love your videos, but have a comment and a question… the new Audacity has an option where you can drag the audio track by clicking on the name…it does not seem you are using the newer version… it would be good for newcomers… also I tend to alter the volume of individual tracks by sliding the volume in the track (left side) instead of amplifier option… is that different? What would be the difference? Again thanks for the videos!

    Is there any way to mute the other person's voice if you're recording two tracks in the same mixer, if you're in the same room? Both sound tracks are in the same "section", which doesn't allow me to seperately make adjustments to the individual voices.

  • @MikeRussell

    @MikeRussell

    9 ай бұрын

    For podcasting 44100 Hz is usually sufficient and offers smaller file sizes which can be beneficial. Recording at 48000 Hz may provide slightly better audio quality but will require more storage space and might not give noticeable differences for most listeners especially in a podcast scenario.

    When I play my audio in Audacity, it hasn't been playing through the whole track. It'll start at the beginning, play for a few seconds, and then just stop at an obscure point and go back to the beginning again. I've played with settings, shut down the program, tried basically anything I can think of and I still can't get it to stop, which makes it really annoying when I want to see how the whole audio sounds together. Please, if you guys have any advice, I would greatly appreciate it!
