Friends,
Except few things, much of Harish said is correct (drag and drop is not a good idea).
So this is how I ususlly recorded
1) In Audacity, upload the music Karaoke track (listen to it see if it fits to vocal band then if necessary play with "Effects-Pitch" to get to whatever you want. May not be necessary for different singers)
2) Select "Microphone" as source for recordning
3) Start recording button and singing (this will play the karaoke track but will not be recorded, but whatever you sing into the microphone will get recorded into a new track)
4) Once the Karaoke track is finished you stop the recording
5) Now choose, the "Stereo Mix" as the playing source and push "Play" (this will play both the tracks, the karaoke track as well as the voice recorded track), listen and see if this is OK. The Timing in this case is always right as you listened the track and sang accordingly.
6) "Stop"
7) Now "Start recording" (push record button) using still the "Stereo Mix" as the source for playing (at this time the two previous tracks will played and you can listen the two tracks playing, while) a new track will be created using the input of these two tracks.
This is your final recorded track (karaoke plus voice).
8) "Stop" and "Save" the file and present to HF community and get the pleasure.
Hope this helps. You may have your own way of recording (if different and easier please share)

Sanjay,
What I was telling OMkar was, 'what Sanjay was probably doing when he was not able to record through Audacity'.

BTW, I did not understand your step No.7. What is the need of it? Our voice track is already recorded in step No. 3. You can simply export as an mp3 file and that is it.

@IDOL, heard your 'labo se chhom lo'
you have a very beautiful voice. Your 'swars' seem to be in place most of the time. You have packed in a decent amount of emotions as well. One area of improvement i see is that you need to inject a lot of 'ada' here and there for the aesthetic appeal. I once again reiterate listen to the original more often and more carefully. there is a lot to gain from that.

@anwar_fan, aap to seasoned player ho yaar. aapko kya bataun? One thing I have noticed, most of the singers here on HSM forum do a good job of bringing emotions, and you have also done a good job. Ek do jagah pe aap to sangeet mein beh gaye ho! wah!

Hamari farmaish aap ko:
1. Chalo ek baar phir se
2. any talat number

Harish

Thank you my respected GURU's Sanjay, Idol, Zaira, and of course merey jigar Harish.

Sanjay mate you're right more dard hona chahiye........but yaar I was in happy mood when I recorded it ab aise mood mey Dard Aur Gham ka Samandar Kahan Se Launga.....the most thing that I enjoy doing every time I sing is Dhang (Not the thing that comes out of Cows ), Adaigee I think may be the correct and respectable term.

My Mic I think was having a very bad day, the voice recording sounds awful with lots of distortions. I've never had any problems like this before, the music sounds fine but vocals recording does not , I may even re record it. I've also been advised to use some reverbs over at esnips co's I have'nt used any so it sounds just a bit bland, me think's

Mahendra's Chalo Ik Baar..........will certainly have a go when I find the track

and as for Talats; I've always LOVED Yeh Hawa Yeh Raat Yeh Chandni, a tall order when I find respective tracks.

By the way guys I use mixcraft, far more upper market software

Dear Friends,

As we always wanted to start हमारी मेहफ़ील under correct name, let us all join together and start a lovely सुरीला सीलसीला which continue to grow forever.

हमारी इस मेहफ़ील मे सबका स्वागत ह.ै आईये हम सब मीलकर इसे रोशन करे !

In the beginning, I am presenting the song of Kishoreda which he use to sing while starting his Mehfil (live shows)

The hindi word 'adaa', as in adaayen, meaning grace, elegance, charm...
