Re: Audacity re-recording backing track
Don't Change Anything. There are a couple of different ways to get the mixer to do two different things at once. If you didn't move any cables, then it's up to me to figure out how he did it. The short version: Everybody knows a mixer can be used to combine several different sources of sound into on...

Re: What does a Ring Modulator do?
A Ring Modulator is a damper assembly found on modern church bells. The system is most often used on bells who find themselves in steeples surrounded by congested residential areas. Rather than stop ringing the bells altogether, the Ring Modulator was developed to mute the resonance, sharpness, and ...

Re: Please help with Recovery
I can tell you that in general, the first two AU files are pictures and draw the blue waveforms on the screen, the rest are very brief mono sound snippets alternating Left and Right. I think in Audacity 1.2, the files were still in rough numerical order. In Audacity 1.3, they are intentionally not i...

Re: help too much techno bass
Sure. See:Ok if that's the case is there a way to tone it down so that it doesn't over power the stereo or sound like too much bass?

Re: Possible bug - Exported wav file corrupt
The only problem with New and Improved compression formats is that all the forum elves all over the earth have to be able to open them on all three computer platforms. That's why MP3 hung around since 1990.

Re: What does a Ring Modulator do?
And, of course as I never tire of pointing out, above about 17 KHz, 44.1 sampling is just guessing -- generally correctly, but not always.

Re: Please help with Recovery
Audacity 1.2 had no good Crash Recovery. One of the reasons for the design of Audacity 1.3 was the greatly improved recovery process. If the crashing seems to be increasing, are you filling up your hard drive? Sound files are big and fill up a machine quickly. Audacity 1.2 is very old and no longer ...

Re: help too much techno bass
If the bass sound is snapping and cracking in Audacity and the blue waves on the timeline go all the way up and down, then the music may be permanently damaged. But let's assume it isn't. Put the music on the timeline and Effect > Equalization > Graphic Eq. this should give you a series of sliders, ...

Re: What does a Ring Modulator do?
Were you waving arms at the same time? Of course. There's a brisk trade in tablets at work because for some reason, nobody can draw with a mouse. There's a reason square waves are normally associated with sound damage. Square waves, good ones, have infinite harmonics and the modulation produces har...

Re: What does a Ring Modulator do?
Right. One is the carrier only by convention. As I said, you can get magic results when the two signals are close to each other.
This is electrically what it's doing.
Note that the phase of the carrier reverses on the negative half of the cycle. Multiply by a negative number.
See: Napkin.
