Re: How to add silence at the end of a clip

Is there any reason you don't use Chains (Audacity Batch) to load a sound file, send the cursor to the end and paste a pre-baked 3-second silent sound file? Export and Repeat. If that doesn't work, Generate and make sure the Silent tool is set to 3 seconds so you don't have to program it. http://man...

Re: Crackling using Blue Yeti

I'm not entirely sure where to go with that. The supplied clip has very low volume voice over a bed of high noise. It took aggressive analysis and corrections to produce a quiet, natural-sounding product. ~~ Many of the tools don't like being forced to work in very low level sound, so the first thin...

Re: Unable to open target file for writing

Offending Characters such as "/" and "\" aren't the only way to miss an export. Under some conditions, Audacity will try to save new sound edits to the program directory. Windows thinks that's a terrible idea.

Try exporting to the desktop just as an experiment.

Re: Splitting a song with two sets of vocals

I apologise if this has already been asked Oh, it's been asked. But it hasn't been answered very well. Audacity has Effect > Vocal Reduction and Isolation. But the rule is we can't take a mixed performance apart into individual instruments, voices and sounds. Even if we succeed, the result will not...

Re: creating .mp4 movie from .mov

Atheneo platform at Knowledge Elements What do they think? You stepped right out of our area of expertise. It used to be possible to buy QuickTime 7 as a separate download. It installed and ran as a Utility rather than a service so it didn't collide with QuickTime X. QuickTime 7 would do format con...

Re: Recording from other programs on the computer

What am I doing wrong here?
Probably recording from the speakers and microphone.

See if there's anything in here.

Re: Crackling using Blue Yeti

In keeping with the theme of ACX requirements, do you have any compression/EQ templates that will take raw spoken word and format the file into one that passes the ACX check? One button processing!! No. Because everybody starts out in a really, really different place. I was commenting about this to...

Re: A lot of noise on the bass guitar signal recording on vi

Crunch that gets worse as you get louder? If you punch it and then just let the note slowly die out on its own, I bet it hits a volume where all the buzz goes away and it turns into a regular dying note? Go into the Windows setups for sound and see if there isn't an adjustment for volume or a config...

Re: Recording Guitar on Windows (Help needed)

I also downloaded the Fender AISO driver but it didnt seem to affect things. It wouldn't. Audacity doesn't easily or directly support ASIO. Just to leap forward for a second, Audacity checks for new connections when it starts. Could this be as simple as plugging in the Amp USB, let it settle down a...

Re: Looking for help...

IS it possible to isolate the fan and/or running water sound and get rid of it completely and still retain vocals ? I don't know of one. You may be a little too far away from a good sound pathway to make this work. I think I have a 7200 still in its box. I've never used it for anything because of p...
