Audacity

We should probably all agree on a specific version of Audacity to use. I'm pretty sure the newer beta version isn't backwards compatible with the "current" version, at least not all the time. Besides, I can't tell if the current Windows and Mac versions are the same.

I've had no problems with the Beta version, and it seems a little nicer, so unless anyone has any qualms about it, I'd suggest we all use version 1.3.7.

The Windows version is here, the Mac version here.

Hopefully the Mac and Windows versions play nicely together. I think they should.




This thread could also be used for any questions regarding Audacity, if/when they arise as well.

thanks. i don't think i have the latest version of audacity so i'll download that. anyone know whether or not audacity records in the standard bit rate?

alright, ive always used GarageBand as my stand-by, so i have to accustom myself with Audacity a little bit. i'll take tonight to read up on it and mess around with it a little bit and should be ready to go by the time we're ready to record.

To be honest, I plan on recording in Cubase, then exporting the single bass track and importing it to the Audacity project.

do you think that would work with GarageBand?

Oh dang I need to go get the new one I will get on that.

If you can export as .wav from Garageband, I'm almost certain it would. I don't know if Audacity knows how to deal with .aif files though. Hopefully it does.
