Re: Fledgling voice artist seeking counsel.

Hi Ian, I've modified my curve a bit to include the LF roll-off for speech. It sounds quite nice on my system. Cattle - Foreward (processed).mp3 What I did: - amplification to 0 dB - equalization with this curve: correction_for_speech.xml - amp to 0 dB - Noise reduction 18 dB, sens 0, smoothing 300,...

Re: "Wave Stats" plug-in

- improvement: it would be sooooo conveninent to just be able to copy and paste the output of the analysis :P On windows, the whole window can be copied as text by simply pressing Ctrl-c, as soon as the dialog appears. The result looks like this: --------------------------- Nyquist ----------------...

Re: Nyquist do* does not return audio

Hi Steve, a little correction, the step increase has to be: (do* ((I 500 (+ 500 i))) for e.g. counting upwards from 500 to 2500 in 500-steps. I think that one should rather use seqrep instead. The main line had to accumulate the sounds anyway, e.g. (setf snd (seq snd (seq (hzosc ...) (s-rest 3)))) a...

Re: Rotating stereo plugin

The phase error does not always occur at the same place. It depends on the recording and the stereo width. Small playback devices with built-in speakers invert (at least partially) one channel to simulate speakers that are wider apart. It is a kind of transferring XY to MS stereophony. Stereo imagin...

Re: Plugins are called for one chunk at a time?

I can't tell if Nyquist and other plug-ins are comparable. Direct sample access is done by a 1020 sample buffer size (in Nyquist). You can e.g fetch 10000 samples and this results in 10 buffers of 1020 = 10200 samples that have to be read and stored in memory. However, this behaviour becomes seldom ...

Re: convert music to 432 Hz

Is a simplistic retuning of music recorded at A=440Hz to A=432 Hz by a -1.818% pitch change really adequate? It is not and does sometimes the contrary. The spectrum of the music is like a worn brush. At the fix point, all bristles are lined up and at the other end, all split and fork and do not hav...

Re: Change Speed - Stretch audio to a specified length

Steve, you could perhaps include high-quality resampling apart from the linear one.

Re: Rotating stereo plugin

Impressive! I managed to create exactly the same wave form with your plugin. Don't know exactly which effect it was. Some of the rotating things. Though when I marked only a small section, some 10 wavelengths of a saw tooth wave, it didn't turn the whole thing around. So far my plugin does whole tu...

Re: Rotating stereo plugin

There's already a Nyquist plug-in that includes your rotation technique. http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=73313#p216689 It has also smooth effect transitions "Rotary speeding up/down" I don't remember if the version that I've published there does already stop on the c...

Re: Playback stops at end of track instead of selection?

It is possible that the looping is possible after using the nyquist prompt with:

Code: Select all
