Audacity Forum

I have preferences set up to notify me by email if someone responds to a topic, but I've never received a notification. Any suggestions? Click on the "spanner" icon at the bottom of a page, then click on "Subscribe to topic" to toggle that option. (for some mysterious reason, &q...

When Batch processing, the exported files are placed in a "macro-output" folder in the same directory as the selected files. There are no other options for normal Macros.

Macros are deliberately very simple - they provide a single list of commands, and that's it. Macros are not able to handle "conditional" commands. You can't tell a Macro: "IF it's an MP3, THEN export as MP3, ELSE IF it's a WAV, THEN export as WAV..." If you need to use conditiona...

I know the mean function's ugly Yes it does look a little peculiar. If, for example, the length of the selection is 10000 samples, then your step size in the first SND-AVG is 2. Perhaps better to run your first SND-AVG with a step size of a few thousand samples, and then (if necessary) run SND-AVG ...

the "cumulative" function is the one that's going awry. This is because of the way Audacity manipulates the Nyquist environment for ;process type effects. What Audacity does, and this is usually very convenient, is to map 1 "unit" of Nyquist time to the length of the selection. ...

I agree with Trebor that the problem appears to be electrical - probably either your microphone or sound card. I don't think you will be able to avoid this problem (other than by upgrading your hardware), but it can be fixed manually. Fortunately, the click is visible, so probably the quickest way t...

I want to transfer from MP3 to MIDI

when I do this, small pieces of silence (and I do mean small) show up at the beginning and end of each file.

That's a limitation of MP3 format (and a few other formats). WAV, Flac, Ogg, Aiff (and some others) don't have that problem.

This isn't default?

No.
Most Audacity users work with one audio track at a time (named: "Audio Track"), so there is no benefit for them, just the disadvantage that it partially obscures the waveform.
