These changes were simply mistakes introduced in version 9290 which was supposed to be for performance only. In my opinion, Normalizer should be made a better Normalizer. It is not the purpose of this effect to normalize. I have also written a fix for the frequency smoothing which accidentally beca...

If I recall (I've not checked the code), the DC component is discarded. It's correctly handled, as far as I can see. Another interesting improvement could be to transfer the smoothing factor from being linear to logarithmic. In other words, it is currently fixed over a certain frequency range. We c...

5) In these lines: // Apply gain to FFT for (j = 0; j < (mSpectrumSize-1); j++) { mFFTBuffer[j*2 ] = mRealFFTs[out][j] * mGains[out][j]; mFFTBuffer[j*2+1] = mImagFFTs[out][j] * mGains[out][j]; } // The Fs/2 component is stored as the imaginary part of the DC component mFFTBuffer[1] = mRealFFTs[out]...

It seems to work with those libraries.
I've deleted the old config file. I'm considering Steve's proposal with portable settings, at least if the VST Effects won't be accessible for some time in the 2.0.6A.

I think that the 2.0.6 alpha needs different FFmpeg libraries, e.g. aformat55.dll.
See the locate dialog title--under preferences/libraries/FFmpeg).
They are not yet prepared/available for Audacity.
Gale should know that precisely.

One can essentially use any of the context menu entries, such as play in..., media info pproperties and so on. Can you do that from within the Audacity file browser dialog? That's what I'd like, so that I don't need to also navigate to the folder in the system file browser. That's exactly the idea ...

CoolEdit Pro had both a Play button and file properties in the file open dialogue. I'm +1 on a Play button - are you? I already voted for file properties display after import. Yes, +1 on a Play button, but I think I already voted for that. I'd prefer file properties to be available before import. W...

Have you ever looked at histograms for peak dB minus rms dB? For a square wave it is 0, for a sine wave it is 3, for speech it would vary a lot but sometimes be large. I often see very asymmetrical waveforms in vowels, tall narrow peaks balancing broader lower excursions on the opposite side of the...

Hm, you take histograms of mean-square over 100 ms intervals, or something like that? Does that tend to a bimodal distribution of "speech" and "pauses?" Exactly so. I've been pondering about the problem of levelling a two-side conversation (Skype). I wanted to study the histogra...

I am confused, is this or ain't this part of the Audacity distribution? I still can't find it in the latest svn repository. I meant the CMU libraries documentation that includes naturally the libs of Standalone Nyquist. Does this mean, you are using a gain function with two segments and a hard knee...
