Re: How do I alter metadata?

If you click on Doug's link, you will find it is no longer current: what you get is a page that appears to be MP3Tag, you click Download, and it takes you to NCH Software, which doesn't offer you MP3Tag, it offers you the Strike ID3 Tag Editor instead. DVDdoug's link IS the official website, but yo...

Re: Roll back to older version?

Will it be possible to install it alongside 2.4.2? We can give you instructions for how to run the new version as a self-contained "portable" version, so that the two versions don't interfere with each other. Our regular testers are usually running multiple versions at the same time, so p...

Re: Audacity and Microphone problem

Do you know the make / model of your mic?

I'm running the most recent versions of Ubuntu
Is that 20.04 LTS or some other version?
What is the exact version of Audacity? (look in "Help menu > About Audacity")

Re: Privacy and Safety in converting files on 3.0.0 with FFMpeg

Probably the safest / most secure way to convert, would be to use FFmpeg from the command line. It's complicated, but there's lots of information via Google.
FFmpeg official site: https://www.ffmpeg.org/

Re: Noise Removal by spectral substraction?

tracks A and B are mono.. Ensure that the two tracks line up exactly, then join them to make a stereo track (see: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/splitting_and_joining_stereo_tracks.html) Then apply the "Vocal Reduction and Isolation" effect, with "Isolate Center" selected a...

What happens if you use Command+L instead of the Silence Audio button?
Oh, this one: https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/ma ... ar#silence
Good idea to try Command+L.

@ RootlessAgrarian , Is the Edit toolbar docked in the main Audacity window, or have you dragged it out?

Re: Noise Removal by spectral substraction?

The "Noise Reduction" can*t work because it applies the "noise profile" blindly over the the whole audio track and has no time differentiation. That works well on constant noises like a single hum or wrestle for example. I see, you are wanting to remove noise that varies signifi...

Re: Dynamic microphone noise suppression

Then the live streaming or recording could be done, either with the appropriate noise filter based on that characteristic inserted before or after the link, or the noise characteristic could be applied later to the recorded version. To some extent this is already done in apps such as Skype / Zoom, ...

Re: Dynamic microphone noise suppression

Are those two different software systems costly? There's "krisp" which is a software only service. It has a free version which is limited to 2 hours per week. Beyond that it's a monthly subscription (currently starting at $60 per year). The Nvidia RTX version requires an Nvidia RTX video ...
