However as soon as I try to get where all my main files are (under /media/shared_partition) The /media/ directory is normally for mounting external devices. By default it is owned by "root" and is read only. User files should normally be kept in a subdirectory of the user's "Home" folder. If you co...

Audactiy (the latest from the Ubuntu repository) had crashed on me a couple of times today so I uninstalled through Discover and then tried sudo snap install audacity # version 2.4.1, or 2020-06-21T18:51:56+01:00 INFO Waiting for restart... audacity 2.4.1 from Daniel Llewellyn (diddledan) installed ...

I'm finding it difficult to follow your description. Perhaps it would help if you give a specific example of how to reproduce the problem, listing exactly what data you have in Audacity's MetaData Editor, and what you are seeing in Kid3. By merging my threads the two issues are conflated. 1) The or...

I just updated Audacity 2.3.4 to audacity-win-2.4.1 on Win10. If I go into Edit->Metadata it brings up metadata from a project I did some time ago relating to a wedding. If I open the Abba project (see my other posts on incorrect id3 data) it correctly brings up the metadata relating to the Abbal al...

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and distributed Audacity 2.2.1 I have captured about 20 LPs into Audacity and output as mp3. In about half of them the Artist is missing. My procedure has been the same for all of them, Import (32 bit float), setup the Metadata file, mark the tracks cleaning up as I go along, Save p...

(k)Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Audacity 2.2.1 I was hoping to find a better noise reduction plug-in than the one in-built and on another forum noise-repellent was recommended. I have download the binary noise-repellent-0.1.5-linux-amd64.zip from https://github.com/lucianodato/noise-repellent/releases and e...

That's useful to know (I think). I'm not sure what you mean by 'caused by processing'. If you set your recording levels too high and the recording is clipped (distorted), then that is permanent - time to reshoot.
