Re: vertical db scale on main display

There is no dB scale with percent waves. That's an artist representation with the idea of eventually changing Audacity to that instead of a percent scale.

It's only the bumpers, interstitials and breaks that are almost certainly in stereo. Your work is right in the middle. That's for broadcast. If you'r...

Re: Exaggerated Claims about A to D Sampling Rates

44.1 will give you 20KCps at excellent quality Correct, but as I posted several times now, it does it through tricks, errors and sloppiness, not through accuracy. In the same sense, MP3 sounds just fine to 100% of people who hear it, but you shouldn't be doing commercial production in either one. T...

Re: switch between right/left audio output circular

I can't think of a good way to do this automatically, but as a first step I would not actually swap the channels. I would create two stereo shows one above the other. The bottom show is backwards left to right. Then all you need to do is switch between them at five second intervals. Much easier than...

Re: ACX Check not working

When you post the test sound file, give us a brief list of how you're recording. What microphone, which interface if any , etc.

Which coffee.

Re: ACX Check not working

It may be possible to fix this forever. I don't know yet.

You're a hero. You're the first person to have the error consistently and stuck around for us to resolve it.

Thanks.

Re: ACX Check not working

I think I got it. Safari automatically adds .txt to the filename. Right-click or Control-Click the file > Get INFO. Delete .txt in the filename box. Say it's OK. Close INFO.

You may need this if you use any of the other audiobook tools, filters, and add-ons we supply.

Re: ACX Check not working

Now we need to do two things at once. I just downloaded the Acx-check.ny plugin to my desktop and it arrived in good working order. OS-X 10.11.6 El Capitan
