Re: Synchronized versions of recorded messages not accessibl

Can you still get to your original computer? It's a good bet you transferred parts of an Audacity Project instead of the full show in each case. An Audacity Project consists of an AUP text file that contains all the instructions for Audacity to assemble the stuff in the _DATA folder of the same name...

Re: No bass from subwoofer

Not sure if HDMI and/or S-Force technology enables or invokes some type of similar LFE redirecting or downmixing. Exactly. Somewhere in this thicket of processing and competing special effects, the bass may be getting lost or processed out of existence. I identified three different places that coul...

Re: No bass from subwoofer

No, because you didn't post a sound file. You posted an AUP file taken from an Audacity Project. AUP files are text, not sound. You need to create a sound file by exporting one.

Re: Improving a voice recording with heavy clipping

Here's the visual equivalent of before-after median filter ... I agree you can do wonders with pictures whose information doesn't change that much pixel by pixel, but a greater similarity to this problem is motion video. People have made "de-noisers" that trade off motion for the idea of ...

Re: Sampling parameters do not change in exported files

First level maintenance is to really reinstall Audacity. As part of the installer package, Audacity will ask you if you want to save your old settings. The default is you do. Install again and this time say no, you don't want all your old settings.

Re: Improving a voice recording with heavy clipping

Bumper sticker version So the original has very little energy over about 4KHz and and we are talking about a performance similar to an airplane pilot's voice. Most of the intelligence is conveyed through psycho-acoustic recognition rather than plain good quality. Also see: bad cellphone call with p...

Re: Improving a voice recording with heavy clipping

Audacity already handles sound values over 0 dB. Audacity works internally at 32-bit floating which allows high volumes without damage. Use one of the volume tools such as Effect > Amplify to bring the level back down. If you Export the show with high volume, then yes, there will be significant dama...

Re: Help with tracks for a hypnosis audio

Create a stereo track of the basic show. Then, using the drop-down menus on the left, Split Stereo Track. After that, you can apply the Envelope Tool (two white arrows and bent blue line) to each track individually. http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/tools_toolbar.html When you get the affect you ...

Re: Whoosh sound just before my voice starts

What kind of noise were you removing? It's not unusual to get many different kinds of sound damage by over-application of Noise Removal. Koz

Re: Behringer q802usb - help with effects

The Audacity and one or two video forums are very odd ducks because of response time. Audacity has active forum elves over 10 time zones and the response time to a question can be down to minutes. Most "User to User" forum response times can be days or weeks. To avoid that, some forums hav...
