lhaz Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Hi. Lately when recording to with my HX Stomp in the Audacity apk, it records in a somewhat lower tone. I have tried it on several computers and the same thing happens. When I play over the recorded, the set sounds really bad Does anyone know why it could be? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 The problem is Audacity. You have to jump through hoops just to use a proper ASIO driver. Try Reaper (unlimited trial, $60 when you're ready). Or Cakewalk (FREE). Or Ableton LIVE 10 Lite (FREE, track # limits). All are full featured DAWs. Reaper and Ableton have tons of online how-to videos and Reaper has a large and helpful community. Cakewalk not so much, but still WAY better than Audacity. I've used all 3 for years, they got no problems like Audacity can't handle. BTW, I tried Audacity when someone else came on here with a similar problem. I'm baffled why anyone would use Audacity, unless they're on LINUX and don't have much choice.

Reaper is also cross-platform, Mac and Windows, making it easier to collaborate with others remotely through Dropbox or (now) iCloud. This is something we're probably going to be doing for a while with all the stay at home restrictions. Reaper is also very extensible and has UI skins for different looks. I'm on a Mac and use Logic Pro X. Its UX, work flow, Drummer and software instruments make it a good choice for Mac users. But I have used Reaper a lot and still collaborate with others using Reaper.
