Re: Envelope Tool vs. Hard Limiter

Which you can't do in a club or on the road. It's only you and your Facebook account. By the way, we wrote a terrific section on multitrack overdubbing. Keep piling your instruments on one after the other and vocals, too if you can find a quiet room. http://manual.audacityteam.org/help/manual/man/tu...

Re: noise removal assistance?

just want to see how possible it is to get rid of the background white noise. I think I can save you a bit of trouble. You can't. Noise Removal works by "memorizing" a sample of noise only (the profile step) and then carefully generates filters and processes to subtract it from the show. ...

Re: Separated/Individual balance for Right and Left channels

I know what one objection is going to be. Audacity doesn't do real time processing. There are a number of requests for being able to apply filters and do processing in real time at the record step -- not to wait for post production. That's very nearly a different program, not a code tweak here and t...

Re: Incredible voice isolation, but can't figure it out...

Since not all his samples are that well made, That's another pit. People point to a vocal management training video that somebody did on YouTube. Of course it worked perfectly and the performer got stunning results. And you can to, if you use his exact same tracks. Pick a different track and it all...

Re: Envelope Tool vs. Hard Limiter

You get killed when the two numbers cross. -35 or -40 is not unusual for a moderately noisy room. It's also not unusual for the quiet parts of your show. Say your show is recorded on average -12 which is about right for a live theatrical performance. Much over that and you risk overload which is gen...

Re: Computer Won't let me install LAME encoder

The alternate is to download the zip file and explode that into the installer material.

Re: Cursor doesn't obey me

Only inside the timeline window -- you're trying to edit the blue waves, or if you click on Effects or Generate, you get the wrong one of those, too? Version 2.0.0 or 2.0.1?

It starts behaving the instant the cursor leaves the Audacity edit window?

Re: Envelope Tool vs. Hard Limiter

And all this stays relative straightforward unless you have a noisy recording environment. Then you're battling dogs barking and the Metrobus starting up outside your window. It gets a lot harder to set the sliders if you have complex background noise. Heaven is simple, rain in the trees, microphone...

Re: Crackling when I record overdub

AUP isn't a sound format. Export as WAV and try that. Do you have Skype running while you're trying to do production? Say hello to mum for us and then hang up. You can't have two or more sound services running at once. Another thing that can give crackles is speaking through a USB hub with other equ...
