Re: How to play frequencies in a row

For the Nyquist Prompt, it could look like this (defun gather (score) (cond ((null score) (s-rest 0)) (t (seq (abs-env (seq (osc (hz-to-step (car score)) (cadr score)) (s-rest (caddr score)))) (gather (nthcdr 3 score)))))) ; Format: <freq (Hz)> <duration (s)> <silence (s)> (setf score '(440 0.5 0.2 ...

Re: stop-and-set-cursor: cursor moves too far

I guess you mean 'shift-a', not 'ctrl-a'.
The same behaviour is observable for 'set (or extent) left [right] selection'.

Re: My narrator's pause-trimmer

That leads to the conclusion that a latency control (MS) should be added At least if a wider public should Profit from the correction.

Re: stop-and-set-cursor: cursor moves too far

You're unlikely to get much closer than about +/- 10 ms accuracy from tapping on a keyboard (probably worse). If you have set up "latency correction" as described here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/latency_test.html you will probably find that the delay before stop is about the same as the ...

Re: stop-and-set-cursor: cursor moves too far

It's indeed a nuisance. You have to press the key before a word is finished in order to place the Cursor shortly after it. The stop/set command does not take into account the playback latency. It should at least move left by the latency correction as it is set in the preferences. I wonder how your v...

Re: ZX Spectrum

Here's an interesting function to Play with (similar principle as decimator) The first number after 'reduce' is the amount of samples that are averaged and the second one tells how many samples you want to advance (and skip if it is greater than samples). high values (20 and 40 for example) give pro...

Re: Help recording windchimes

Audacity may not know too much about notes (vapart from the pitch spectrum, which you should consult to Display the pitches from your rcorded tubes), Nyquist does. You can produce a midi-note by entering (Nyquist-Prompt) (abs-env (osc c5 1)) c5 can be replaced by the notes you want. The "1" means on...

Re: snd-fft as a list?

'snd-fft' Returns an Array, not a list. You must first convert each element to a cons cell, before you can apply any of the convenient list functions (member, sort, subst etc). Furthermore, you can't treat the fft values in the manner you do. The Output gives back real and imaginary parts of the cos...

Re: Keeping Temp files longer or autosave feature

I give my vote to a "undo over sessions" feature, although it is not on the top of my wishlist. It may be helpful for beginners. Another auto-save aspect that I really miss at the moment: When I test code in the Nyquist prompt, it is lost after a crash. If those few KBs code were saved temporarily, ...
