Hi Billy,

Welcome to the list. I was in two bands in the early 1980s and agree that recording in a multitrack studio is magic! My own Windows computer is not fast enough to do digital multitracking very well (Audacity 'skips' in it), so for doing real multitracking work, I still use my analogue 4-track recorder.

I just sent out a post with instructions on how to do multitracking with Audacity, hope you find that useful. Where did you do your recording engineering degree, how have you used it?

David

Hey, Guys!

Billy Littlejohn here, and no, I am not making that up... it really is my name! <smile> I am tickled pink to find this list, because I had a friend who sent me an mp3 of herself saying hello, and I flipped. I thought how wonderful this would be, considering that I have family overseas in Quito, Ecuador, South America. My sister and her family are missionaries there.

However, there was one problem... she used Sound Forge, which as most of you probably know, is as expensive as a big dog! I began my quest for more, shall we say, economical ways of getting the same thing done, and voila, I found you guys! I have other ambitions as well... I am a guitar player, and have been for almost 32 years, and desire to get back into some multi-track recording. One of my degrees is in recording engineering, and sometimes, I miss the magic atmosphere of the studio. I know that Audacity cannot replace that atmosphere, but the magic of making something spectacular out of small bits of ordinary things, can be a real thrill. <smile>

Well, I won't write a book here, but I am sure that I will find this list to be extremely useful. Thanks to the creators of this list, and to all of you for your contributions both past, and future as well!
