Re: newbie needs help w/ cut & paste

That's a cousin to the cut and paste way. It's insanely easy if the artistic presentation works. If it doesn't then you may need the more complex technique

This is harder than you think. You have to match rhythm, phrasing and instant by instant musical flow. Oh, and the edits have to not pop.

Re: Noise removal: identical for both channels?

2) Double the FFT size. This produces significantly better noise reduction with most samples that I've tested.
I think you can do that in Cool Edit. The profile step in CE2 is much more comprehensive than ours.

Re: Aiff to mp3 .. how

MP3 compression damage never goes to zero, it just gets less as your bitrate goes up. Uncompressed stereo bitrate is roughly 1400, so that gives you the fuzzy conversion. You need to know that MP3 makes a terrible archive format because it's a dead end. You can't pull your archive out and cut or edi...

Re: Recording in stereo

Welcome to Windows Corporate Conferencing Services. Windows thinks your playing is "air conditioning noise" and is trying its best to cancel it out. You can dig down and find the settings in the Windows Control Panels and turn it off. If you have a "keyboard" rather than a real p...

Re: Noise removal: identical for both channels?

I can see chaos myself. My sister's vinyl chain is noticeably noisier on the left than the right. I put it down to a bad sound card, but there wasn't anything I could immediately do about it. What would the change be? Split the stereo show into two monos, get two different profiles, do the correctio...

The easiest thing to try now that you have selected and copied your musical phrase is stop the cursor when you want to put the copied music and Edit > Paste, Contrl-V or whatever it is on your computer. Audacity will push everything to the right out of the w...

Re: Thought I'd ask

The problem is we're not a simple WAV editor. We're an Editorial Production Environment Manager. We don't save sound files, we save Projects which allow you to stop and start very complex show production over a very long time. This burns people regularly when they "Save" an Audacity AUP so...

Re: AUDACITY NOT RECORDING FROM SOUNDCARD

"Upgrades?" Self-Recording is an unnatural act where you run the computer's recording and playback systems at the same time and connect them. The natural state of the computer is to record or play. Those are two straight-line pathways. Record your guitar performance and Play YouTube. Self ...
