Re: Muffling sounds after removing the vocals on an audio

The Vocal Remover in Audacity is a simple arithmetic tool that removes everything in the left-right middle of a stereo show. It also usually removes bass and drums and can damage other music as well. The tool in Audacity comes with tools and adjusters that can help if the rest of the performance get...

Re: Converter for Sony microphone (ECM-MS957)

I understand that the output are addition and substraction of the channels. So this is at least very simple arithmetic. Well, yes, but the way Sony implemented the cables isn't quite so simple. The bottom of the microphone is an XLR5 Male, not XLR3 like a normal microphone, so the first thing you w...

Re: Problem with fast track / audacity compatibility - windo

the latency is disastrous, Recording Latency or Delay? They're different. Do you sing in perfect time but it plays back late or out of rhythm? Or is your live headphone sound late or echoey? Which Audacity do you have? Audacity 1.3 can control Recording Latency easily, Delay is another matter. http...

Re: how do you change timbre in audacity?

You want to make yourself into an announcer/presenter? Or you have a cheap violin and you want to make it into an expensive one? I know of no tools that can do that -- or at least not in Audacity.

What's the job?

Re: Recovering a Back-up Project?

This is why saving a complex Audacity Project freezes your machine. The hard pathway to the music files is burned into the AUP file like this. http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/aup1.jpg See where it says "aliasfile?" Audacity is going to go down that exact pathway every time to find your musi...

Re: Just want to work with one track

You want Mash Record like the old analog tape machines. In Audacity you have to delete the old track portion you don't want and Append Record will lay new work where the old work stops. There is no Cover It Up or Record Over It.

Re: chain single-channel edit possible?

Chains is not a global batching tool. Effects and actions have to be written to be chains compliant, so if you don't see it, it's probably not there.

I'm assuming you posted in the wrong forum. This is the forum for Audacity 1.2.

Re: Overdub recording - too many tracks

In Audacity 1.3, you can either pause the recording instead of stopping it, or use Transport > Append Recording.

I don't understand why your original post went unapproved. I approved all your posts -- the ones I could find.

Re: One cycle waveform

Audacity 1.3 will allow you to generate sine waves according to many measures of time from the pull-down selector. One of the measures is samples.

Since one cycle sine waves never exist in nature, we are prompted to ask what you're using them for?
