Audacity Forum

You're talking about that light ticking in the background, right? Mavericks? Did you upgrade to 10.9.2?

2.0.6-alpha Audacity 2.0.6 is not the latest version. Alpha software is a program in thinking stages where the developers throw around ideas and see how the different, newly-written portions of the program interact with each other. Nobody is expecting it all to work right. 2.0.6-alpha has to go thr...

There's nothing simple about Chris's Compressor. It's a dynamic, look-ahead compression manager he wrote so he could listen to opera in the car. He started with arpeggios and glissandos and worked down instead of starting with algorithms and subroutines and working up. So his compressions are very p...

Just about all the other compander systems produced artifacts and odd sounds or would in some way fail to restore the original show at the end of the chain. If you don't have an iron g...

I looked at "Chris’s Dynamic Compressor plugin for Audacity" and it appears to be a compressor only. Am I missing something?

Compress Ratio can be a negative number like it says in the slider panel notes.

This is going to sound more complex than it actually is. We are going to change iTunes a little so it will produce an MP3 for you. After it does, click on the MP3 and pull it onto the desktop or wherever your YouTube Export system is. iTunes > Preferences > General > When a CD... > Export Settings. ...

the AUP file. Just to cover the troublesome bases, you understand that the Audacity Project is not the AUP file, right? The AUP file is the English list of instructions for what to do with the pile of stuff inside the _DATA folder. That, in pieces, is where the actual show is. Neither will work wit...
