Re: Help! 2000-5000 Hz filter

There's also a "Windowed-sinc filter" available here, which has extremely steep cut-offs: https://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?p=268099#p268099 Note that this filter is quite slow. For relatively high frequencies (such as 2 - 5 kHz), a small window size should work well. Larger win...

Re: Help! 2000-5000 Hz filter

Or, the Equalizer can cut by 30dB which might be enough for you. In the "Draw" mode, it can cut down to -120 dB, though there are a couple of issues with the Equalization effect at the moment. To use the settings in a chain, I think you have to save the settings as a preset. Also, if two ...

Re: Easier to see selections

but blue light eg. from monitors has been shown to be bad for biorhytm (specially at night) I imagine that listening to sound that looks like that is not very good for biorhythm either :? If you have the track set to "Waveform (dB)" view, try setting it to normal "Waveform" view.

Re: Conversion to ITU G.711 mu-law in macro

Currently, exporting as WAV with a scripting command is limited to 16-bit PCM. I'd suggest that you export as WAV and then convert the WAV file using SoX (or PyMedia or similar). http://sox.sourceforge.net/

Re: How to set Bitdepth for a Track using Modscript Pipe ?

Is there any way we can set bitdepth using ModScript Pipe ? Yes. Currently the existing commands doesn't provide a way to do that. That's incorrect. You can use "SetPreference:" (https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/scripting_reference.html#extra_scriptables_i_submenu) For example, if you ...

Re: Only can hear from right side of headphones

The thing I don't like about those adaptors, is that they short out one channel of the headphone amplifier, which "could" damage that channel of the headphone amp.

Re: Meta Tags not loading by default

Clicking the [X] does not close the project, it only closes that one track. Audacity projects may have multiple audio tracks (and other types of tracks: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/tracks_menu_add_new.html). Each project has one set of metadata. The metadata persists until either you modify ...
