Thought it might be useful to add some examples. 1) Generate a single cycle sine tone: A sine tone is defined by the function (SIN x). In Nyquist, the "x" value is in radians , so for a single cycle we need values of x to go through 2xPI radians. 2xPI is about 6.283185307 fullwindow-Expres...

If you use "Constant Bit Rate" (CBR) encoding, then the file size is easy to calculate fairly accurately. For CBR encoding, the "bit rate" is specified in kilobits per second. There are 8 kilobits to a kilobyte. So, for example, if the file is 10 seconds duration and the bit-rate...

How can I generate various y=f(x) wave forms using nyquist/audacity? I'd like to work with this: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=plot+x%5E3+*+e%5E(sin+(+x+*+3))+*+0.00001,+x%3D0+to+33 I thought this sounded interesting, so I've written a little plug-in here: http://forum.audacityteam.org/view...

Here's a plug-in written in response to this forum topic: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=95258 The idea of the plug-in is that an arbitrary function "f(x)" may be entered, and the plug-in will generate a waveform by evaluating the expression for a given range of &qu...

because after all the selection window is just a mirror of the file manager? Isn't it? The selection window is a WxWidgets file browser window. An application's file browser window is part of that application and not dependent on the system's file browser. If you install Thunar file manager, I expe...

Usually I select them from the File>Import>Audio> window, but if they are not there I drag & drop to Audacity window, when I am opening the file in Audacity. When I am exporting [File>Export Audio][after corrections] I copy the file name [in Dolphin File Manager] and paste it in the SAVE window...

If you're recording from a USB device, see: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/faq_ ... k.html#usb

Is this an Arduino project?
If so, the audio quality is likely to be very poor whatever you do.PWM is a very poor way to encode audio (can be useful as a form of sound synthesis though).

Assume I want to record through an AD converter which is capable of e.g. 24 bit and 96 kHz. I would like to work inside of audacity with this specifications, but at the end convert it to CD quality (16 bit, 44.1 kHz). In this situation, it would be best to work in Audacity in 32-bit float / 96 kHz,...
