Re: specify (output) path with edit chain export

Hi! Just checking before I add this as a feature request: is there a way I'm not seeing to specify the output path with edit (or apply would be better for my purposes) chain Export<format>? (I found a forum thread which suggests that Export is capable of taking a Path parameter, but when I try to a...

Folder introspection in Apply chain

Another thing that would be nice to have, if not already present somewhere, is (optionally recursive) folder introspection in Apply Chain Apply to Files.

Re: (SOT) Programmatically detecting normalized wav files

Normalize will have no effect on the ones already normalized. That's one of its talents. The Normalize available range of corrections includes zero. I know that (that's what I'll be taking advantage of if I have to just re-apply normalize to everything), but can it determine whether or not a file h...

Re: (SOT) Programmatically detecting normalized wav files

I hope not. Undistorted audio goes from 0 dBFS and down. Not up. All negative numbers. Default Normalize and Amplify are both 0, not -1dB. You can change the value to anything including +1 by clicking on "Distortion is OK." OK, I guess dB is the wrong unit; what is the unit of the ordinate (i.e., a...

Re: (SOT) Programmatically detecting normalized wav files

Koz: Since you can't do that, you should probably tell us what you're really trying to do. Precisely what I state: sort the tracks into normalized and not normalized Koz: Audacity tracks can be normalized and amplified (cousin tools) to any number. You can easily have a natural track that looks lik...

(SOT) Programmatically detecting normalized wav files

Hi, folks. I have a bunch of wav files - some are normalized (using audacity), some are not, and I don't know which are which. I'd like to write a Python script that can figure out which are which; is there some way, just by reading a wav file as binary data, to detect if it's normalized, e.g., grab...

Re: Setting bit rate to 546 ensures lossless wma?

Understood. (I was hoping lala might be the "Holy Grail" of an online archive for my collection, but I guess I must keep searching...)

Re: Setting bit rate to 546 ensures lossless wma?

Gotchya. ;) So I'm wasting my time using NCH's Switch to do this w/ the conversion parameters set to 440 bps 96 kHz 2 channel 24 bit? Same problem with trying to access m4a (Apple MP4) lossless? Or should I re-post to the Mac list? (At this point you're probably wondering what I'm trying to do: I ju...
