Re: Nyquist vocoder plugin not working
I need to leave for a while, but all the tool is doing is multiplying the two sound values. Is your voice normal level? If it's really low, then the output performance will vanish. Use my MP3 voice as the test track and use Generate > Pink Noise 0.8 amplitude as the carrier track. Were you able to f...

Re: are CD's recorded with vocals and each instrument separa
They're separate (usually) at the studio, but then there's a mix-down when they're all smashed together into one stereo song for the release. The only management you can do after that is Vocal Removal (Karaoke), and that generally doesn't work particularly well. There's a long list of people who wou...

Re: How do I get audacity to use the time shift when exporti
Audacity does not recognize the area between time zero and the start of the show as a "real thing," so it vanishes when you export. The easiest way around this is create a new track with silence underneath everything. Audacity will "marry" the silent track to your show during exp...

Re: No sound playback whilst recording
Audacity > Edit > Preferences > Recording > [X] Playthrough (select).
However, the sound is going to come out "one computer late" and you may not like playing like that.

Re: Help Making Awesome Sound Effects
Here's a six second test with just the vocoder against pink noise. No other effects yet.

Re: Nyquist vocoder plugin not working
All the values have to be real numbers. "0%" doesn't work.

Re: Help Making Awesome Sound Effects
Start with the acting. We can't do acting. No software is going to turn your mum into Professor Festerwound. We also can't change the pitch of a voice. You would think it would be a snap to turn your Billy Baseball voice into a radio announcer, but nope. Can't do that either. Given you have a proper...

Re: Audacity use w/Mackie Onyx Blackbird digital rec interfa
If the Onyx is connected to the computer via FireWire, what's the analog connection for? Audacity will not play back multi-channel (over 2), but it will record, I think, up to 64. The problem is Audacity will only manage one Device at a time, so the trick is to prevent your sound system from breakin...

Re: Loss of stereo and underwater distortion
Particularly if it comes and goes, you have an instability, not something broken. This seems counterintuitive, but can you make it worse? Like start Photoshop and FireFox and Office and Angry Birds then try to make a recording. If the machine falls face-first into the mud, then it's just not powerfu...

Re: Very simple help needed with mixing times
Select the Time Shift Button (sideways black arrows), select the track you want to shift -- double click the blue waves. Push sideways.
