Audacity Forum

Anyone can open and play an MP3 sound file. But to make one requires (until recently) licensed and purchased software. The Lame software package is a work-alike, non-licensed Audacity add-on that allows making very close MP3s without writing a check. Screen Shot 2019-04-23 at 3.17.03.png https://lam...

The process, last I looked, sorts the AU files by time and date. It shouldn't matter that the program is closed. This is why the process falls apart immediately if you edited the piece. Also, stereo shows have Left and Right files too close to each other to sort them properly, so the process guesses...

Glad to help. It is a bit of a juggling act. Sometimes we can get the sophistication of the user from the message and tailor appropriately, but sometimes we just go at full speed until somebody stops us. There's a list of "what they asked" and "what they really want." Sometimes s...

where did you find it?

We should remember this is a forum, users helping each other, not a Help Desk. So the more information you can give us about what you're doing, the faster we can help you, but the more information everybody else has.

Something is heavily processing the microphone sound. It's going through noise reduction and room echo suppression and that's what gives it that odd, underwater sound. There are other clues as well. The blue waves are perfect and that's almost impossible unless the microphone or recorder processing ...

Where is this tutorial? The problem with Noise Gate is a ticklish adjustment between not enough and too much. Badly adjusted Noise Gate can give you little noise tails before and after words. It can restrict the artistic and theatrical emphasis on words and phrases as those phrases may fall outside ...

Yes. I'm just now waking up the real question. When you download Noisegate.ny , make sure your computer didn't try to add .txt to the end of the file during download. Finding out can be a pain in the neck because Windows will try to hide the .txt in the name "to help you." Once you have No...

What he said. The silent stretches are not the only problem. Turn on View > Show Clipping. All the red marks are distortion where the sound got too loud.



The blue waves are never supposed to go up (or down) to 100% (or 1.0).
