Audacity Forum

Are you running it separately on vocal and instrumental tracks? Are clicks natural mouth noises or other things like electrical noise? Of course lower thresholds increase detection. Perhaps "false positives" are real but subtle things. "Clicks" can be bumps in low frequencies too. I made the picture...

Here's one example of the fixes I can do. Above, an "s" sound with two hot spots around 2kHz, which sound like little bumps when you listen closely. They are a distraction of the sort I sometimes snip out by hand. Below, the same after applying fixes with the default setting. In context it is now a ...

This is a continuation of this thread: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=75331 I am trying to automate the process of cleanup of the clicky mouth sounds that afflict my narrations, which can be a tedious business with the basic Audacity tools if you are too perfectionistic about it ...

I have made many changes and I think my work is at another stage worth sharing. But I will start a new thread to make sure I get people's attention.

I take your word that you observed great memory usage. Yes, it seems a similar problem.

I was also using tiny "sounds" of one sample only as summands, which may or may not be essential to the problem. Perhaps not, if this demonstrates the same problem.

I found ways to work around it. Roger agreed there was a bug to fix there, in case of adding of sounds with domains that touch without overlapping, but I haven't heard more from him. Now I concatenate a sequence of sounds by using snd-fromobject and an object that calls snd-fetch repeatedly on each....

Of course there is that method, but is there any way to listen to something that approximates the difference of power spectra without that bit of murmur of the original that could only be phase shift? Audacity's noise removal for instance has an isolate radio button. I could not get rid of the murmu...

You are right, I wrote that before thinking.

I anticipate using this, if I do, with "short" selections of say 5 to 20 ms but that's not under 1000 samples.

Are those spectrograms really different?

Tell me how to make such pictures in case I need to demonstrate befores and afters too.

I was wondering if there is a way to present the difference of spectra aurally, better than just subtracting one signal from another.
