Re: Track Alignment

Time shift seems like the best option but when I try to move the track I'm importing, the other track moves as well. Can't seem to get them to be independent. When you select multiple tracks they move together with the time-shift tool . Just select the track you want to move ... http://forum.audaci...

Re: Please help with de-sser.

A simple de-essing strategy is to band-pass the sibilant frequencies, invert their waveform, then mix them back with the original audio. Assuming the original & band-passed waveforms remain in-phase, then when inverted they will be in anti-phase and will attenuate any excessive sibilance. No env...

Re: Playing Asynchronously

... start playing track 1 (which is 20 seconds in duration) and then, after 5 seconds, start playing track 2 on top of track 1? Could generate 5 seconds of silence at the start of track 2. Or use Audacity's time-shift tool http://manual.audacityteam.org/m/images/a/ad/timeshift.png to shift track 2 ...

I forgot what settings I'd had to change to get the Pop Mute to inject actual silence instead of just minimizing things ... suggested Pop-Mute settings.png You can increase the Pop-Mute threshold to say -0.05dB, that gives you a tiny bit more headroom, but that creates a click. suggested ''Extend-S...
