Re: Remove DC Offset is not working

Are you sure Remove DC Offset works ONLY before any editing? It's only effective before editing. Remove DC doesn't go down the show syllable by syllable adjusting the waves. It takes the whole show's waves gently up or down until that little space on the left between sound silence and "0"...

Re: The age old crackling problem

I began the process of installing the product correctly as per the instruction manual. My take-away is the drivers and setups don't get along with your machine. Many interfaces support general activities and actions just by plugging them in. This is Corporate Publicity and Promotion wanting to avoi...

Re: Remove DC Offset is not working

I see a non-symmetrical voice. Many announcers have that. I used to be able to recognize which of two favorite announcers was speaking because one had pronounced biased blue waves and the other didn't. Neither had DC offset. This is what happens when you edit a DC Offset presentation to a clean one....

Re: Where is my plugins folder?

I believe 1.2.6 is the latest and greatest plugin.

Chris reached end-of-life a while ago so I think what's there is the whole ball game.

Re: Where is my plugins folder?

Chris' Dynamic Compressor. This is pretty good stuff. It can be made to simulate full broadcast compression and level setting. That is, you can start with a podcast with wildly messed up volumes and make a broadcast-safe podcast that you can listen to on your run on the beach without constantly adj...

Re: EXPORTED .WAV FILE LEVELS TOO HOT

I use Tracks > Mix > Mix and Render to a New Track . This will produce a new track which should be an exact copy of the Export. You can even select that one and use it for export rather than make Audacity mix and export your many show tracks. Select > File > Export > Export Selected Audio. If his ne...

Re: What am I hearing when I generate a 10 Hz tone?

You are probably hearing harmonics of the 10 Hz sine tone. Yeah. That's the speaker cones rattling. Have you ever been to a cathedral or very large church during services and heard that soft but powerful, shake-your-shirt, pulsing thunder sound? That's the 16 foot organ pipes. That's 33Hz. Half tha...

Re: Remove DC Offset is not working

It's not unusual for home microphones to have very low pitch sound errors and noise which can look like DC offset depending on where in the show you measure. Those errors can throw off effects, filters and corrections which is why getting rid of very low pitch trash is the first step in Audiobook pr...

Re: Help Balancing Levels!! ACX

A peak of -5.68dB means that limiting to -3.5dB isn't doing anything.
Right. That's why it might be good to see what the Solo is thinking before involving the computer settings. If either one is broken we'll never get there.
