Re: Selecting & Deleting very small pieces of audio

Going back to the gaps - does the gap always occur in the same place? About iTunes and MP3 - like I said, I use iTunes to do the conversion simply because it is faster. -- Bill Just to confirm, when I say "gap" I don't mean that visually there's no music wave. It's there and the play indicator line...

Re: Selecting & Deleting very small pieces of audio

Save the Audacity project . If you want to change something, such as EQ, open that project and make the changes there. Then select the songs you've changed one by one and do File > Export Selection. -- Bill When I Export, should I export as a wav file, import into itunes "convert to mp3" or is it s...

Re: Selecting & Deleting very small pieces of audio

That is not right - there should not be any gaps in the audio. Why are the clips at different sample rates? Try this next time. After you import all the MP3 into their separate tracks, for any that are not at 44100 Hz sample rate, convert them to that rate using the Track Drop Down Menu. http://man...

Re: Selecting & Deleting very small pieces of audio

Here's what I do. Import the MP3s Line them all up on the same track. They are now separate clips on the same track. Delete the silent gap between songs. You now have multiple clips on one track, and each clip is a complete song without the annoying silent bits. (See before and after images at bott...

Re: Selecting & Deleting very small pieces of audio

Moreover (and this goes out also to the senior forum member who previously answered my post) I swear I've done the same exact thing I'm trying to accomplish at least a couple of dozen times in the past and it worked... with the BETA version. I just can't figure out what changed and it's driving me ...

Try this exact sequence of steps. New Audacity project Import two MP3 files that should flow together Delete the gap Save the project Exit Audacity Start Audacity and open the project. Is the gap back, or is it still gone? -- Bill Hi Bill, bear with me as I'm kind of new at this, I'm not sure I'm c...

Re: Selecting & Deleting very small pieces of audio

If you have the two sound files in Audacity as two separate tracks, you can always use the Timeshift tool to slide them so that the silences overlap - and thus no longer exist - in your final mix-down to whatever file format you decide to use for the export. Yeah, I've done that with success. Call ...

Re: Selecting & Deleting very small pieces of audio

Good point PGA, but I've already looked into that also. Mine is checkmarked which is the default and I haven't changed it.

Re: Selecting & Deleting very small pieces of audio

Hi Bill - I wish that was the issue. I have doublechecked that and the box is NOT checked, which I understand it shouldnt be for what I'm looking to accomplish.

Any other ideas?
