I want to edit an mp3 to make the song sound like it's coming from an old radio. How would I do that? I use Audacity.

Effect -> Equalization -> Select Curve -> amradio

Maybe? You can probably play around with the equalization otherwise too. I don't actually know anything about sound so I don't know what the different settings mean. But I found that the high pass and the low pass filters also mess up the sound rather nicely.

I use a program called Cool Edit Pro, and it has many filters, such as radio, phone receiver, answer machine, under water, down stairs club, etc. Yeah. Really good program.

Crap, I used to have a text file with the frequencies but I lost it after the reformat :p

I do remember googling for it though

LockeZ

I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

1) Put your microphone up next to your speaker.
2) Start recording.
3) Play the song.

This is my ultra ghetto method which only requires Windows Sound Recorder. But you might be surprised how well it works.

I wasn't happy with Shinan's method, but then I tried doing the same effect 4 times, and now it sounds like I wanted it to! Thanks!
