Re: Add several effects at once

I'm going with no. The latest Audacity has a batch command called chains, but it's very basic and you can't arbitrarily select what goes in it. It doesn't learn what to do like the one in Photoshop.

Re: audio disappears

<<<So I installed the lame plug in as I needed the file in a wav or mp3 format.>>> We got a pretty good idea what happened. Audacity doesn't Save Sound Files. Your real intention is to Export your Audacity Project as a WAV or MP3. If you have been producing your show for a long time, your Audacity P...

Re: Equalization for rap vocals (Plugins/Tips)

<<<I have a metal pop filter>>> Talk about that. Conventional pop and blast filters work by having the sound waves stretch a thin nylon or dacron mesh stretched tightly over a hoop. They're acoustically invisible in operation except they won't pass large masses of air -- the pops or thumps. Metal sc...

Re: Help with voice

I think I would do this by reading the lines twice through. Select one pass and add echo and reverb. Make a mess out of it. Then slide it in the timeline so it's ahead of the straight voice and play both. The effect is having the echo in the wrong place and the two voices will slide around each othe...

Re: Average tracks

There is the obscure problem that you don't get half the noise even if you do succeed. Noise goes up and down as the square root. If you add two and two, you don't get one. You get one point four something. Almost not worth the effort. To get significant noise reduction, you have to add up four or m...
