Re: noise reduction problem

How do I to conquer the problem Record it again? There are two different motor tones, one at 303Hz and one at 366Hz, plus regular background trash. Those are the problem. Getting rid of those gives you airline pilot voice and I can't find any way around it. Even if you get Noise Gate to work, that ...

Re: Compare two tracks for cut content?

I don't know that I understand what the goal is. We can't take effects out of a track.

We can't recognize the characteristics of one track and map it to another if there is any difference at all between the two songs. It's even worse if the two are MP3 or other compressed format.

Re: [2.1.2/2.2.2] Recording Suddenly Not Working

In Windows, there is a tick to tell the installer to wipe clean all the preferences and settings. Did you select that? If you didn't, Audacity will try to retain the preferences and settings from the old install.

What are you recording?

Re: Cannot hear sound while recording

Audacity > Edit > Preferences > Recording. [_] Overdubbing (de-select) [X] Playthrough (select) > OK. Now you have to show Audacity where you want the playback sound to go. If you have a USB sound device, Window might assume it needs to send the sound there. Probably not in this case. If you have sp...

Dueling Posts.

It's a monument to the response of the Audacity Forum that you can get a reply before you stop typing.

Re: Trouble with Peaks and EQ

Compress &dynamics 1.2.6 Just now paying attention. That's Chris's Compressor. I don't think I would use that for audiobook readings. It's a very active, look-ahead volume compressor and processor. No, I'm not shocked it boosted your mouth noises and other sounds. Try this process. You'll need ...

Re: Trouble with Peaks and EQ

In general the only thing you have to make happy is the Audacity bouncing sound meter and the blue soundwaves. It's not unusual for home style microphones to run OK turned all the way up. How far away from the microphone system are you? If you have a pop and blast filter, you should be about a power...

Re: Vocoder problem

You can also not go the whole way. Mix a small portion of the original clean voice back in.

Re: Add "Save changes before closing?" checkbox in Preferenc

A note: Photoshop assumes if I save anything , we're done. It doesn't always assume it knows the goal better than I do. No, Koz, you can't possibly be done. You didn't save the picture in "Adobe Photoshop Image Format®". I'm sure the other audio editors do that, but other applications don'...

Re: crash on export - 2.2.2 on High Sierra 10.13.4

The document suggests Photoshop CS5, so it’s not a legacy version. I have CS3 and I’ve never had troubles.
