RMS update. I think I'm starting to learn something about RMS--and a 10 sec sample is really all it takes to do some evening out. EQ: So far in my current trial, if the RMS is the same, and usually first 10 seconds is all that's needed to check-(with an RMS analyzer), unless, quiet intro or somethin...

that plug-in didn't help me (js resonnateur)--or I should say I didn't like the results. Seems a good concept for a plug-in but didn't fit -concept being replicating an old record. not necessarily scratches but the over-all narrow sound/or sound of the oldest records (1920's 30's--?). I think that p...

Thanks, the Audacity page listed it but no link, so I found it online--hope it's safe! Here's the only place I found it (scroll to bottom): http://www.dllfreedownload.com/js-resonnateur-v1-0-dll-download/ Per you're redo: I have to disagree, well as far as the quality of Robert Johnson's catalogue -...

Here's my editing attempt at emulating a 1936 recording using Robert Johnson's Terraplane Blues' waveform and frequency analysis as a guide.(mono WAV 48k 0826). And--recorded on an iPod--which is probably way worse than what they recorded Mr. Johnson on in that hotel room back in 1936. UPDATE/SEE NE...

The EQ is cool and simple but hard to preview when I EQ a lot out because the volume drops, as it should. Which I of course fix after, but as I said, it makes it hard to Preview. One trick I accidentally learned, is doubling the track and and then highlighting both, then go to EQ and set then Previe...

To answer the OP, I will confirm the Sony headphone edit is much better in retaining low end body to your voice. It even sounds good on both my Sony MDR V6 cans and my cheapo "it came with my 1999 GateWay computer" Altec Lansings sans its subwoofer. But I did have to adjust its bass knob back to it...

The problem is with Audacity , not the VST plugins : they can be adjusted whilst playing in "live" VST hosts . Real-time is very CPU intensive, when Audacity was created, circa 2000AD, the computers of the intended users wouldn't have been be up to the job of doing real-time adjustments. Darn --wel...

Thanks Steve. Yes--that's what I did--increased Preferences > Playback: Effects Preview to 30 seconds. That helps. I also tried quite a few plug-ins but none real-time capable and/or Audacity as you stated. So can a plug-in be a real-time EQ? And if so, would it work with Audacity? Audacity does hav...

... Distortion. sure, but The Leveller--NO! -no way ... Steve did make a distortion plugin for Audacity which has 10 types ... http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?p=237796#p237796 This one is something--quite untameable though--unless you want Metal http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/programs/RedS...

Frequency Analysis at Full Size Reveals Previously Hidden Life Form Just curious--Here's a pic of an analysis (at full size) of a song I'm editing. The peaks are obviously the sound -but what about the part from 1Hz (or 0?) to about 50Hz? For optimum sound, should I High Pass Filter (or EQ?) any par...
