Re: recorded tracks on Zoom H4N imported into Audacity sound horrid

Post the same ten seconds of each track (if I understand this right).

The H4n only has two microphones. Where did you get four tracks from? Or do you mean you made four separate recordings?'

Re: Editing tips

Audacity won't edit MIDI. I think the latest version will play them, but won't edit them or convert them to anything else, or convert anything else into MIDI. MIDI is machine control instructions not music or sound. What you might be able to do is play the bells in the computer's internal MIDI inter...

Re: 2.4.1 Screen flashing

What was the first OS on this machine? I wouldn't mind an answer to that one. There has to be something different about this machine that can cause this oddball behavior. Correct me, but this is a one-off. I've never heard of another complaint like this. Also see: disconnect the network and see wha...

Re: Waveform (dB) view

I don't see a dB view. I didn't realize it wasn't there.

2.3.2 it is.

Actually, there's two missing. Other editors have linear (waveform) presentation, but measured in dB.

Re: hi, where to find .pdf copy of the manual? thanks

I'm pretty sure there isn't one. The closest is the manual that comes inside certain versions of the program download. Audacity is not a massive corporation. It's all volunteer and it's all we can do to keep everything running and the on-line documentation accurate. Are you volunteering to produce t...

Re: 2.4.1 Screen flashing

You're running two different browsers. I sometimes do that, too, but not at the same time. Are they always looking at the same pages when this happens? Does the behavior happen if you open both browsers but disconnect the network? Does anything make a fuss if you disconnect the network? What was the...

Re: 2.4.1 Screen flashing

That is one thing I noticed up the thread a little. The screen doesn't "switch" between displays. It does a three to five frame fade. That's a little odd. That could be an artifact of the video format compression.

Re: ACX Check long or short sample checks?

Make sure you use the June 10th version. I changed the process around a little to simplify keystrokes. We who are pounding away on a revised ACX Check want to know what you picked to measure noise. How do you manage Room Tone? Noise is a home reader nightmare. Is this your first book? It's not, righ...

Re: How to reducie my own voice

I could not diminish my voice with it. Chris's job is to keep one voice from being louder than the others. Software doesn't "know" what a voice is. All it knows is collections of tones and some other tricks like microphone direction. That's it. If you got this job to work at all, you got ...

Re: my microphone no longer works on audacity

Did all y'all Zoom between those times? Zoom, Skype and the other communications programs take over and can reset your microphone and sound systems.
