Re: Audacity 2.2.1: bug samplerate

[quote="GuinnessTrinker"]why is it limited?[/quote I don't have a definitive answer as the code was written about a decade ago, and the developer is no longer involved in Audacity, by my guess would be that his reasoning was based on: a) Audacity is an audio editor. b) The audio bandwidth ...

Re: How to record Skype and Google Hangouts

On Mac and Windows you can use PulseAudio VC I presume that you mean "Linux, BSD and Mac"? There was a Windows port of PulseAudio, but I don't think it has been actively developed in years (and last I heard it was quite buggy). PulseAudio and Jack are both readily available for most Linux...

Re: Can We Remove Repeated Sections of A Track?

computer are made for simple tasks and what we're talking about here is simple. No it's not a "simple" task. There's no comparison here between 'nearly the same'. Here we've got 'exactly the same'. "Exactly the same" would be a special case that would hardly ever happen in real ...

Re: Levels too high UCA202

is there any way to lower the gain? The UCA202 does not have any way to adjust its input level. This is one of the corners cut to allow Behringer to sell the device so cheaply. The input sensitivity is fixed at "Line level" and you have to adjust the level of the signal "before"...

Re: MIDI protocol

Audacity only provides simple cut / paste type editing of the MIDI track. There is not yet any facility to add or modify "Program Change" message (or any other message type). Depending on the MIDI synth / sampler that you are using, you may be able to change the sounds associated with spec...

Re: Customizing Label Export

Pulling the track name automatically would be a great time-saver, for sure. This is the code to create a label at the current selection, using the selected track name as the label text: (let ((start (get '*selection* 'start)) (end (get '*selection* 'end)) (trackname (get '*track* 'name))) (list (li...

Re: Can We Remove Repeated Sections of A Track?

"Pattern matching" is something that the human brain is exceptionally good at. We do it instinctively. We can even do it when there isn't actually a matching pattern (such as seeing animals and faces in clouds and the Rorschach Test ). For a computer it is much more difficult as computers ...
