I assume that the new noise profile will "refine" rather than "replace" the original noise profile. If you don't do that, you could get pumping background noise which would not be welcome. On the other hand, making the noise reduction much better at the end of the show than at t...

The expert suggested we load Mojave From where or what? Postings suggest strongly that I create a bootable thumb drive and install from that. Others suggest it's possible to get Mojave from on-line somewhere?? I've seen it suggested I can do that from the Apple Store? I'm crawling with possibilitie...

What's the job? What are you doing? Recording from the internet and overdubbing both need special sound pathways and if you get a new computer, it can be difficult to set them up again. Also with a new computer, you have to turn off Automatic Windows Processing. Windows automatically assumes you wan...

As I think I posted here before, if you wanted to buy an iPhone, they would know exactly what to do.

We should wait for the next Steve Jobs to show up.

Thank you for the test. Good Night that voice is low volume! That explains why you're experiencing processing errors. This is your raw performance on the timeline. Screen Shot 2019-12-10 at 19.37.38.png It's supposed to look more like this when you're speaking. The blue waves get taller as you get l...

I will find a quiet zone at the start of the signal So you already have a sound file. That's a concept shift. My idea of "Real Time" is applying Noise Reduction as I talk . There isn't a quiet zone until I stop speaking. If you have an existing sound file, then quite a few techniques open...

It is possible to submit a short test to ACX. This will prove your production pipeline without cold-submitting bushels of sound files and weeks of work. https://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?p=349993#p349993 We should note that ACX has two test levels. There is the automated robot which, in g...

Audacity really likes saving Projects. Projects are nice because they will save your preferences, edits, timelines, selections, etc, etc. Projects will not save UNDO. Projects are saved in many individual files (sometimes a great many) and if anything happens to any of them, the show may be trash. W...

It might be useful to spend a little more time in the Philosophy/Metaphor step. What's noise? The Audacity developers neatly side-stepped a whole bunch of programming by asking the user where the noise was (the Profile step). After that, Noise Reduction comes down to subtracting the stated noise fro...

Yes. That's the idea. what do you think about it? There is a caution. It's a lot easier to start with a loud effect and make it quieter than to make a quiet effect louder. Production decisions are up to you. Does it fit your script? Messing with sounds to make them fit the show is one of the Academy...
