how to use audacity to record a skype conversation

Hi All,
Could someone explain how audacity can be used to record a skype
conversation which should receive input from the mic and from the internet?

I have heard of a shim that effectively grabs the audio (of the person on the other end)
directly from the soundcard. Is this true? Where do I get the shim?

what the crap?

I have no idea what happened here, but how do I fix it? Am I going to have to take out the whole section of audio or can I edit the one part out? What happened is that I put my show together last night, and I didn’t notice until I got the show burned onto a CD, that in two places so far that I have discovered, a song that is in a later part of the show cuts in on only the right channel, and the audio that is supposed to be there doesn’t seem to be affected. Is there a way I can just delete the audio that I don’t want without deleting what I want to keep? Also, does anyone have any other reasons why my audio keeps going silent? I know my hard drive isn’t full, because I checked yesterday and I’ve only used 31% of the space on the drive, including what I had of the Audasity projects. At this time, there were two breaks that were being affected, and based on what my dad said about the show last night, it sounds like it’s the same two that were affected before. That break is coming up here in a minute, if it is not I will report back.

annoying silence of audio problem

Hi all,

Me again, working this time on the final radio show for my senior project, which I want to have done by tomorrow. I did most of the work on it on Saturday, and saved it as an audacity project because I still had some editing to do on it. When I came back to it this evening, it looks like the music was left alone, but my talk breaks are mostly silence now. It’s not a big gap between words, it’s just that the audio is gone, and when it comes back, it is where it should be at that time, so it’s essentially skipping several of my lines. Here’s the setup on Audacity 1.3.11 on Windows 7,

Track 1, stereo track, has audio originally imported from fmpeg file formats. The best way to get the same type of file I’m using is to rip a CD into ITunes, all the music I’m using is coming out of my ITunes library. This track also has some mp3 files in it as I converted all the public service announcements I will be using in the show to mp3, after they had been ripped from a CD.

Track 2, audio track, with AIF audio files in it, this is the track where all my talk breaks happen, except for the ones I record on the phone, those go in track 1. It also appears that these are what is being cut out.

Track 3, stereo track with mp3 files as source material, seems to be fine.

Not "getting" editing

Hello All,

I've been using Audacity for a while here on my Xubuntu box, and have 
zero problem with straight recording, importing, editing, and exporting.
However, I had an occasion where what was being recorded ended up being 
interrupted and begun again. So I ended-up with 3 separate files.

What I'd like to do is place them in sequential time order, and then 
edit out the blanks in between.

I tried importing them, but they become stacked one on top of the 
other...you hit Play and they ALL play! Not what I had in mind.

Tried copying #2 to paste after #1, but nothing happens.

I'm obviously missing some step or setting. Any suggestions?

Thanks-in-advance,
Mischa
