That does seem to be a mistake doesn't it? Sound Finder does exactly the opposite of what you want, and Silence Finder is missing options. There's a long history behind this. The original effect was written by Alex S. Brown and was called "Silence Marker", and it was designed to mark trac...

I'm not sure is this a bug or a "feature" :? Pretty sure it's a feature. The code explicitly leaves a bit of empty space visible beyond the end of the track. Maybe the little strip is there by design to show you that you have the whole project on-screen. I assume that's the reason. Withou...

But now... This laptop is woefully underpowered for the kind of lifting I'd be asking of it. So the question is do I try to upgrade the USB ports on the powerful computer, or is there a best practice way to record on the laptop and move the audio to the powerful computer for processing? If you're g...

Some info about cursors in wxWidgets: https://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.0/classwx_cu...

Using the mouse seems clumsy for really small amounts. Personally I find it very easy and convenient, provided that I zoom in far enough. I use "Ctrl + Mouse wheel" for zooming in/out. An alternative way to shift audio a precise amount the the right, is to click on the track to the left o...

Thank you for posting this feedback, I'm sure that it will be helpful for other aspiring audiobook producers. Very pleased to hear that your audiobook has been published, congratulations, hopefully the first of many.

Is it not time to change the minimum supported resolution from 800x600 (2011) to at least 1024 x 768. Who usesa 800x600 screen 2019? And then of course extend the window size of the plugin dialog I don't know exactly what you are referring to, but this is a very old topic (started in 2010), so some...

Perhaps the "Soft Limiter" code from Audacity's "Limiter" effect: https://github.com/audacity/audacity/blob/master/plug-ins/limiter.ny Note that the lines beginning with "$" are equivalent to lines beginning with ";" but with the additional functionality (for ...
