Re: RMS 35, SOS!

did the noise reduction first.
Watch me and get off the bus one stop before I do.

You won't know you need noise reduction until volume boosting and other processing is done.

Re: RMS 35, SOS!

You've fallen for LadyLee04 's siren call. Do you have any wax handy? It's too late for international FedEx. I bet you're expecting the tools and filters to act rationally. In the last example of a correction we both did on the same clip, her pathway produced an overly aggressive RMS or loudness, so...

Re: Clueless when it comes to technical stuff like this

Okay so I have a set of decks and a mixer, I bought a Citronic AC-1USB sound card with which Audacity came with. Back up a little. You bought these because you're an experienced DJ (but not a techie) and wanted to have your own kit? Somebody else has a system like this and you liked it? It was reco...

Re: RMS 35, SOS!

One of the cautions of generating a corrections list like this is accidentally making it so it only works on one chapter. If you want another chapter you have to hand-tune it again. In the revised list, the first limiter sets the volume for the compressor. Is the only difference you left out step on...

Re: RMS 35, SOS!

I generated a revised list and I left out a step, too, but not the same one you did. This list reflects the newer limiter. Pre Processing -- Effect > Amplify: default, 0.0, No Clipping > OK -- Effect > Limiter: Hard, 0, 0, -6dB, 10ms, Yes Gain > OK -- Effect > Limiter: Hard, 0, 0, -3dB, 10ms, No Gai...

Re: Weird decibel increase after save

i'm sure not from you. Audacity is open source software, so anybody could offer their own version with their own tools and custom services. So you're asking us to trouble shoot somebody else's software... This is ours. http://www.audacityteam.org/download/windows/ If you install it over an old vers...

Re: RMS 35, SOS!

Lovely. This is where the differences between the old and new Limiters pops up. [email protected]#$%^ Amplify , at least, is pretty straightforward. If you don't do anything to it, Amplify should always try to reach 0 (second number). The top number is the boosting value it thinks it needs to get there. Just let i...

Re: DJM 700, Audacity, and dell laptop

Oh, is this a feed from your Spotify license (or one of those services). Yes I think that should work. I think that's how the local club does it. They're after me to join their license. Be careful with hot keys. Control-Whatever is service-command for Next Song, but it stopped the Audacity recording...

Re: DJM 700, Audacity, and dell laptop

A note that although stereo recording and stereo playback at the same time are both fully supported, magic applications like Games and Skype are not so easy. Both of those try to take over all sound pathways and it's not clear who might win. That's not a simple USB adapter (although it can be. YMMV,...
