What a terrific cut. I love the film effect over the faded rose. Excellent. On a weapon's grade sound system, the high notes are waaaaay to crisp and they are distorting the compression systems. On a couple of notes, my wine glass started to vibrate and sing. What happens if you send the video with ...

Different tasks demand a different "size" number. If all you're interested in is overall general groups of sounds, the large surgical 8192 or higher number is a waste of time. If you're looking for that one pitch tone in a forest of other tones, then a higher number is for you. And just be...

<<<Oh, and I also changed the window from rectangular to Hanning since I saw that in your spectrum Koz. Is that the generally accepted window to use in the industry?>>> I use the default. I don't think the default is rectangular. I do the newspaper test on my feather duvet over the bed in my heavily...

The crinkling newspaper is a handy test to make sure there are no odd problems in the system. This is the spectrum of a Blue Snowball USB microphone during the newspaper test.

You can also download the free QuickTime for Windows and use that as a media inspector instead of WMP. Control-I... Picture 1.png That's my "famous" piano solo. Six seconds and then I had to go lie down for a while. Oh, and iTunes for Windows -- also free -- will be happy to manage and bur...

It's only in the last couple of versions that Windows Media even admitted that a CD burn was possible at all. Before that we made very good use o...

I know what the other elves are going to say. Push up to Audacity 1.3.11.

Audacity 1.3.8, 1.3.9, and 1.3.10 all had known, serious problems. I still use 1.3.7 for some work because I know what the errors are and none of them affect the jobs.
