Sometimes we can think of additional odd tests and in rare instances, it turns out your file may not be broken at all.

I'm not doing very well at all here. That's OK. Deep breaths. You do not want to become a "hostile poster." That can get you erased and banned. If you have an example of that noise, drag-select it with a couple of seconds on both sides, File > Export a WAV (Microsoft) 16-bit sound file an...

Apologies, images replace .gif. Please also avoid going backwards up the thread and apply corrections to existing posts. Those are impossible to follow and it makes responses and suggestions appear out of time or orphaned. It's bad enough when we get two real-time people posting one message off fro...

Here. This is the analysis with just a straight mix between the two tones. Screen Shot 2020-06-14 at 9.31.57.png Its just the original two (measured along the bottom). Now I'm going to apply a distortion filter similar to fuzz guitar. Suddenly, it's not clean, pure, perfect, straight, linear any mor...

Then what are those equations for?

That's non-linear mix. That's what your ear is doing. Half Volume to your ear is barely audible. Free-air volume can double or half many times before your ear runs out of steam. Those are the equations that go into advanced math.

what number is that resulting tone? 324,23 and 521,89. If you hear anything else it's because your ear is mixing the two tones together. Combinations don't actually exist. If you notch out one of the two tones from the mix with Effect > Notch Filter, you're left with the other pure tone. There are ...

if I punch paste I occasionally get two hits at start and end of the pasted section. Actually, that's not what he said. He said he got two clicks at either end of a correction when he tried to cover up a click with another tiny paste. Next time you post an animation, make it go slower. What's almos...

Audacity 2.3.3 is a 32 bit app and Mac OS 10.15 forces 64 bit applications. I think it can be forced to work with some tricks.

There's six tools in the little tool box.


Choose the I-Bar for the normal Audacity selector tool. Two sideways black arrows is the Time Shift Tool. Two up and down arrows and bent line is the envelope tool.

I think I got it. I couldn't figure out how you were faking out the Edit > UNDO system. You are making one, single, two-hour long correction instead of individual actions and corrections. The first time you Edit > UNDO, there's two hours, shot. When you open up the song the first time, Save a Projec...
