Audacity Forum

For some strange reason, I can't load multiple tracks in ONE instance of Audacity like I used to do. Drag and Drop doesn't work and neither does "opening" the file, because it just generates another instance of Audacity and THEN the track(s) in question show up, but only ONE file per instance of Aud...

Actually, I should have asked that question in regards to Audacity's compressor- what would be suggested settings for Threshold, noise floor, ratio attack and release time?

I would like to know if any of you have a killer compression setting for a pop song.
I don't want to get into the loudness war, just something to make the song punchy.

If it is a VST effect, did you follow the link in my previous post and follow those instructions? Ambience is a VST reverb. Link here: http://...

OK, restarted Audacity and dropped Ambience (unzipped) into the folder.

Where and how will Ambience show up?

I'm trying to get the Ambience VST into Audacity but it won't take. One question that I think I know the answer to, but I want confirmation. Do ALL instances of Audacity need to be closed except for the instance that you're loadng the VST into? I have another Audacity window open with a project that...
