Re: FLAC vs WAV ?

I'm starting to have some space issues I'm more concerned about that. Audio (and Video) production doesn't "do" space issues. "For Some Reason Audacity crashed and I can't get the show I've spent months editing to wake up." Under many conditions Audacity makes a copy of the whol...

Re: Comparing two supposedly identical tracks.

neither of the suggestions worked What do you get when neither of them worked? Something must have happened. These are two identical sound files. I selected one by clicking Select (on the left). Then Effect > Invert. Screen Shot 2020-03-23 at 13.30.02.png If you look carefully, you can see that the...

Re: Won't Import MP3

Lame was needed to make a new MP3 back when making an MP3 was licensed. That's not true any more. Audacity has been able to open MP3 files forever. If it can't, then the file is broken or it's not an MP3. You can get a clue by telling your Mac to display filename extensions. Desktop > Finder > Prefe...

Re: Having trouble removing high pitch screech

I think most of that is your laptop internal fan. Whatever you did, don't do that any more. This is brute force killing each whistle individually with Notch Filters.

Re: ideas to improve sound just a bit?

The sound started out unusable Post some of that. Same segment. We can't take effects out of a performance and once you overdo processing and noise reduction, the effect is permanent. You can safely post a mono recording (one blue wave) out to 20 seconds on the forum. Export the original recording ...

Re: WAV file time-compressed on import

Here's something you can try while we wrestle with this.

Make a half-hour recording in Studio One. Length not critical. Open it in Audacity. Reduce everything down to seconds. Divide. Is the error still 1.12367?

Re: WAV file time-compressed on import

NTSC
Nope. The error is too big for that.
The error is 1.12367, not 1.001.

And they're both at 44100 sampling rate......

Yeah. I want to see the file analysis, too.
