Re: Noise removal with unknown sound profile

Hi all, Thank you for the responses. It was only this batch of recordings that had high levels of noise, and I figured out the problem. The thread connection btw the microphone module and capsule had come loose. It is working fine now. We have other previous cases and new cases where the recordings...

Re: The Equalizer needs a gain control (v.2.0.5)

Topic moved to "Adding Features" board. The first one would determine the flatness of the curve and is the most important one imo. Unless that could be an "advanced interface option" (disabled by default), I'd be slightly against that. I can imagine inexperienced users being ver...

Re: Meeting ACX Requirements w/ Audacity

Hi Maria, Here's a link to a corrected version of your 15-min: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/cpvrlgoab3q0h8n/AAAfKInq5gbYaTBWh-Cqr17sa?dl=0 If I had had to read this, I certainly would have filled the entire 15 minutes with trying to pronounce the novel's title. ;) I've not used your attached noise pro...

Re: Noise removal with unknown sound profile

I would not only slow the audio down but also scale the frequency part such that it lies similar to a human's spectrum. Can you tell us more about the vocalization of mice? - What is the nature of the ultra sonic sounds, do they coincide with audible utterances and form quasi-formants? - Are they fo...

Re: The Equalizer needs a gain control (v.2.0.5)

+1 for a gain control on the Equalization effect. The way that I envisage this working is as a vertical slider that raises/lowers the Eq curve ("Draw Curves" mode), or all of the sliders in tandem ("Graphic EQ" mode) while retaining the current "shape". There should ac...

Re: Meeting ACX Requirements w/ Audacity

I like what you did, the echo that I hear on my end is almost non existent! :3 I believe I could start with that (since the first 15 minutes are due this Friday) and send it in to see if it' fits? What do you think? Your original clip is indeed very good for itself. I suggest that you record in mon...

Which is also lossless.

Do you mean MP3DirectCut there http://mpesch3.de1.cc/mp3dc.html ?

Exactly.

Re: mp3 music file volume modification

I would certainly have offered an Audacity tutorial if there were one that is lossless. Alas, there is none, at least if you want an mp3 again. That's why I've suggested the Foobar2000 solution. In general, there are three ways to correct the volume: 1. Open the file in Audacity, change the amplitud...

Re: Request: Nyquist code for deliberate feedback

The second argument of feedback-delay can be a sound too: (feedback-delay s 0.001 (pwl 0.5 1.0003 1 0.0 1)) This gives a sound like: elgui_w_fb.mp3 For a "true" feedback loop, the decay sound must temporarily go over 1.0. You can of course pre- and post-process the sound to get e.g. changi...

Re: how to separate streaming audio in two

Why so complicated?
I open a song, select the part that I want and press Ctrl-x (or c).
Then, Ctrl-n for a new project instance and Ctrl-v to paste the clip.
