Re: How to censor words using sound effects

The attached plugin produces a similar effect : it's like "scratching" vinyl records, which can be used to censor words .
The effect only works on audio less than 2 seconds duration, (when the sample rate is @44100Hz).

Don't select all. Just move the cursor to the end, then generate silence.
If you select audio, then generate silence, the selected audio is replaced by silence.

Re: Could my audio setup be better or just tweaked a bit?

... But my music major wife was surprised that, with an excellent microphone, decent cables, a more than reasonable PC, and a decent boom with shock mount, the recordings were so quiet and muffled.

I'm using equalization filters to simulate the change in sound as it travels through the environment. Each filter corresponds to a distance traveled A gradual low-pass filter will do that part, e.g. use this variant of Steve's code in Audacity's Nyquist prompt ... (setq start-freq 22000) ; cannot b...
