Audacity Forum

In my tests, Click Removal does work in a Macro, but with an important limitation. If the effect does not detect any clicks in the file, the effect returns a message window, and the batch processing will stop until the message is dismissed. Because of this limitation, the "Click Removal" effect is ...

Seems to have a limit of around 95-97 files. Did you try a different machine? It's possible that's a hardware memory limit and nothing we do is going to solve that. two problems that I can't get around...near 4,000 files to process It looks like that's correct. This isn't simple audio production an...

RMS sounds good, but it comes with two problems that I can't get around:

I have Audacity 2.0.3

I tried installing 2.1.3, but Mac OS says it's not compatible and won't run.

2.3.2 has the problem I can't get around, it locks up. Seems to have a limit of around 95-97 files.

Version: Audacity 2.3.2 I created a macro to remove the pops and clicks from my files, while normalizing I found that some of them weren't being normalized and noticed that those files had spikes in the waveform. The macro was working well for a while then stopped when it reached a file that is said...

Memory Leak? Every time Audacity loops through a file it leaves a tiny part of itself in memory. Go > Utilities > Activity Monitor. CPU, MEMORY and DISK are semi-real time displays and you can watch the progress of your jobs and how many resources are being used. It's possible you're going to find ...

I started Audacity starting further down the song list, selecting only 156 files, it still locked at 95 files (prior was 97). The file it locked on before was processed, So it previously locked on file 97, but this time it locked on file 95, but it processed file 97 on the way to 95 ? How can that ...

Okay, I tried something different. I selected a completely different set of files and ran it through, still locked up at 97 files. Thus far it seems 95-97 files is the sweet (or sour) spot. Here is a screenshot of the macro I create.

Thanks, that solve problem #2, #1 is still an issue. Sigh.

I tried it with 248 files, locked up at the same area, about 97 files. Is it locking up on particular files? If so, are you able to process those files by "manually" applying the commands (rather than via a Macro), or does one of those commands still lock up? I tried to test your theory by seeing i...

According to the manual: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/apply_macro.html It is recommended not to process more than 500 files at a time. Try rebooting your computer, and then apply the Macro to 500 files or less. Does that work? I tried it with 248 files, locked up at the same area, about 97 f...
