Re: Can't get ACX plug-in to appear in plug-in list (OS Big Sur)

Nice! It's conveniently a "room within a room" and I hung a carpet (with hooks and strong fishing line) in a semi-circle from the ceiling (each end of the semi-circle meets the wall), and further placed 8-ft x 2-ft plywood planks, after gluing a layer of 1-in. foam to each one, around the carpet, ti...

Re: Can't get ACX plug-in to appear in plug-in list (OS Big Sur)

Thanks for the clarification on types of plug ins. Koz, as far as I understand, making the original recording as clean as possible is the goal, but even professionals do post-performance clean up, every time. There is always editing to be done. Always. I'm not talking about editing "word for word." ...

Re: Can't get ACX plug-in to appear in plug-in list (OS Big Sur)

Scratch the question: I stumbled onto the page in the manual that explains how the plugins are organized.

And, thanks! Successfully installed the ACX plugin. Much appreciated.

Re: Can't get ACX plug-in to appear in plug-in list (OS Big Sur)

Thank you, yes I am aware of the performance aspect. I have read to audiences from my memoir (which is available on Amazon); and as mentioned, have been practicing minimizing all the extraneous sounds that the mic picks up. Also aware that post-editing can eliminate unwanted sounds as well.

Re: Can't get ACX plug-in to appear in plug-in list (OS Big Sur)

Having them appear in multiple places is in the direction of having them appear everywhere. Wondering: how are they categorized? What makes one an Effect and another a Tool?

Re: Can't get ACX plug-in to appear in plug-in list (OS Big Sur)

Also, quick question: why does Audacity have Add / Remove Plugins under three menu headings: Effects, Analyze and Tools?

Thanks! What you've provided should give me the necessary components for a good setup.

I have additional layers of noise-reduction within the room.

I understand that it's a Nyquist plug-in and I've gone over those instructions a few times. Thanks!

Re: Can't get ACX plug-in to appear in plug-in list (OS Big Sur)

I just downloaded Audacity two days ago but I guess it wasn't the most recent? I will look into that. My recording area is very quiet. Kind of a room within a room. I have been practicing my narration to minimize the usual problems. Thanks for the info! When you say Analyze ---> Add/ Remove, does th...

Can't get ACX plug-in to appear in plug-in list (OS Big Sur)

Any help appreciated. Using Audacity 2.3.3 After downloading the ACX check, didn't see it under Tools ---> add/remove plugins. Dragged it from my Downloads to Audacity's plug-in folder and changed the name so that it didn't end in "txt" but rather "ny" Tried both "ny." for the ending and "ny" withou...
