It happened when I tried to exit one project.

Can you blow that out a little? I tried to save my Project and it froze on exit? I tried to quit and it froze? Exit one project? You had multiple windows open?

Left to its own devices, it will go screaming down everything selected and apply one correction to everything so that the one highest peak goes to where you want it. That makes neat, clean arithmetic sense, but it rarely makes good music matching which is what most people want. There's a joke that o...

That's a re-write, isn't it?

Much of the conditional branching goes away if I do that.....

Unless you have a really deep voice, just use it. I'm just now catching up. You mean just use LF-Rolloff all the time. I wish it was appropriate all the time, but it can do a number on someone with a "broadcasting" voice. It presents with the contradiction of the better voice, the more li...

You can grab and pull that window very wide and the quality of information will improve as you go. Also, the cursor will lightly stick to the peaks and the CURSOR window will tell you where it got stuck. The spikes will get finer and more accurate as the SIZE setting increases, but you have to grab ...

Maybe others are too? It's possible, but less likely than if you have one of the hero problems such as "problems with my USB microphone." That will get hundreds of hits. Thanks for the clip, but it sounds like it may have originally been a highly compressed and processed dance tune, we ca...

Nobody wrote on a rock we can't have a generic 20Hz Hi Pass Filter and not test for anything.

100Hz HPF is an industry standard because it's the most reliable way to shoot voices in the field when the voice are being paid millions and you have to come back with something.

Unless you have a really deep voice, just use it. No question. But I'm talking about those microphones that have intense and rising noise...at 10Hz. "I've done everything I can think of, the voice presentation sounds perfectly clean on a good sound system, but I still can't pass noise." W...

Here's an idea from a low blood-sugar brain on the way to lunch. ACX Check has three little-used readings below the three primary ACX Compliance values. Make one of those the energy below 20Hz. Could be something to add to ACX-Test. There is no condition where energy down there is valuable. Add DC o...

I'm re-writing my AudioBook Mastering paper and I got stuck. How do you tell when you have sub-audible noise or even audible rumble enough to know when to use LF-Rolloff? You're not allowed to use Analyze > Plot Spectrum. Nobody understands that. Spectrogram display turns to trash down there. Koz
