Re: Scripting with Audacity

No, Chains can't do that. When applied to the current project, all commands in the Chain are applied to each full track in the project.

Re: Burn it off, Hose it down.

I have no idea how Linux handles this, but I'm guessing there's something similar you can do. On Linux it's pretty straightforward for a standard install: 1) Open the "home" folder (opens "/home/user-name" in the default file browser) 2) "Ctrl+H" to show hidden folders...

Re: Splitting a Track Into Multiple Files

3600 seconds is 1 hour, which is what you said you wanted.
How long do you want the sections to be?

Re: No audio on CD recording

When you have recorded, you should then "Export" the audio as a 16-bit WAV file, and the "Project Rate" in the lower left corner of the main Audacity window should be set at 44100. That gives you a standard 16-bit 44.1 kHz WAV, which is the correct format for an audio CD. Check t...

Re: Is there any way to "glue" a label to a segment?

Don't forget that Audacity is a multi-track audio editor.
It may be better to approach the task as:

Track 1: Aaaa

Track 3: .......Cccc

When the project is exported, the tracks are mixed down into one file, so that would produce: AaaaBbbbCccc

Re: ISSUE WITH TIME SHIFTING

You have inadvertently enabled "Sync-Lock". Click the clock button to turn it off (see: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/sync ... roups.html)

You should use the current version of Audacity (2.1.3) from the Audacity website: http://www.audacityteam.org/download/

Re: vocoding doesn't work properly

The vocoder works only on stereo tracks. To apply an effect to one or more specific tracks, select the track(s) that you want to apply the effect to. See here for more information about the Vocoder: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/vocoder.html See here for more information about selecting tracks:...

Re: Scripting with Audacity

A Chain can be applied to the current project, and will then be applied to all tracks in that project.
