Re: Audacity Recovery Utility

If the One out of every 15 Audacity recordings that I make gets "lost" is due to Audacity crashing (not some unrelated computer/software issue) it would be helpful if you could give a lot more details about what is going on. Audacity is very stable and should not crash (with very few well ...

Re: Repeatable Stuck Shift from a label track

Try this to see what is likely related... 1) start Audacity, make it about 1/3 as tall as the screen 2) Generate 30secs of [Chirp] (maybe create 30 secs of anything any way) 3) zoom way in and add a label: 3.png zoom in a bit closer and start adding labels one after the other, very close together on...

Re: Recording signal very low after switching to firewire

I'm not familiar with this particular mixer, so I'm not sure what you mean by this: The only way to get a greater strength is to increase the volume out put from the mixer (which is fine for playing music). How are you able to increase the volume output from the mixer if the main mix is already pea...

Re: Expand Audacity

At the moment I am struggeling on these things: 1.) To get an edited wave file saved under a predefined path. The path should be made available for the program with the command line like this: audacity.exe -output C:outputdirectorycut_example.wav. On program quit the wave-file should be saved autom...

Re: Intermittent Recording Dropouts with Tascam US 122

Thanks for the report and sticking with the debugging process. I guess your next step is to decide which part if the chain to replace next in your testing--it seems like you are down to audio hardware (Tascam), computer hardware (did you ever mess with the memory sticks as we discussed off-thread?) ...

Re: Expand Audacity

I would appreciate if you could give me some hints, how to solve these problems: My Audacity should be able to open a specific file (that works for me with the command line: audacity.exe input.wav) and [*] save it automatically on program exit [*] under a given path. (It would be nice, if I could e...

Re: Auto Start Recording from command line

Adding code to start recording via CLI would be very simple but would probably need to also include a switch for length-of-time-to-record (with a useful default). You would probably also want to automatically Export the recording either as an audio (WAV, M4A etc.) and/or Project so that would be two...

As Steve notes the max speed possible will depend on various factors. 50.0f works fine on my Win7 SP1 64-bit 3+gHz quad-core machine with 8gB RAM--YMMV <grin>.
