Re: U-Law dithering

so your statement "Yes, that's what should happen." is incorrect. Then let me rephrase: That is the correct behaviour according to its design. But anyway, the point is that dithering for U–Law doesn't do its job. It does for audio close to zero, which is arguably the best compromise for μ...

Re: U-Law dithering

The entire purpose of dithering is to make the difference between original and output - noise. The purpose of dither is to break up cyclical repetition of quantization errors by distributing the errors into frequency bands that are least audible. By the way your "big dither" didn't mask t...

Re: Strange spectrogram colors on selection

What do you mean by "Multiple Track Colours" for spectrograms? Currently Audacity supports a selection of track colours for waveform views: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/audio_tracks.html#colors For spectrogram view, the choice is currently colour (one option) or grayscale (one optio...

Re: Sample level n-pass filter

Isn't it more convenient to have a loop–friendly effect in the first place? That depends on whether you expect someone else to convert the effects to "loop friendly" for you, or if you convert them yourself. If you expect someone to do it for you, you are likely to be waiting a very long ...

Re: U-Law dithering

Generate a 1Hz sine wave at 205887Hz Project Rate, which should contain all 16-bit PCM values, because it's 65536×PI rounded down If it is a 16-bit track, then generating any sound will give exact 16-bit values. If the track is 32-bit float, then the sample values will not all be exact 16-bit value...
