How can i silence this?

I need to silence (extactly at zero!) the central “noise” of this -sound-.
This “noise to silence” is present in other places in the audio track…
How can i do this (automagically) with Nyquist?

I’m not sure exactly what you are wanting to do, but I’m guessing that a “noise gate” is the effect you are looking for: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Nyquist_Effect_Plug-ins#Noise_Gate

Ok…
I have already made some attempts … but i could not do anything useful…
Is possible to use GATE or NOISE-GATE inside a Nyquist “script”?
Can you explain me how to do it…?
I still have only errors…

(noise-gate (highpass8 *track* 3000))

gives me

I found this in manual

(noise-gate sound [lookahead risetime falltime floor threshold]) [LISP]
A simple noise gate implementation based on gate. All parameters except snd are optional and default values are lookahead: 0.5, risetime: 0.02, falltime: 0.5, floor: 0.01, threshold: 0.01. The result is the input snd, where below-threshold segments of sound are silenced.

Crossed posts. Please see my previous reply. If you want to make your own “gate”, the Noise Gate in the link may be instructive.
