Yes and yes, but it's quick and easy. My recommendation would be to use the "Crossfade Tracks" effect (http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/cr ... racks.html), which is what I suggested to JIMWICK.

Re: fade- overlap track?

Oh, OK, though if you have complaints about that part of the documentation you should perhaps take it up with the person that wrote it. The way that I envisage "typical" use of this effect, is that a number of songs / tracks / sound effect ... have been imported and the user wants to "...

Re: Something else that confounds me ...

Don't get me wrong, these are very nice mics for a lot of things, just not for narrators. It is however recommended in at least one place by ACX. http://blog.acx.com/2013/09/05/acx-studio-gear-series-part-1-microphones-and-preamps/ One good feature of the NT1-A is that compared to similarly priced ...

Re: 2.1.2 weirdness with spectral selection

Looking at this another way, this issue is only really a problem for "one click" effects. We can't do this yet in Nyquist plug-ins because it would require an extension to the Audacity/Nyquist interface, but it can be done for built-in effects, and could be done in Nyquist plug-ins if the ...

Re: fade- overlap track?

Note to JIMWICK - you can ignore this post because I am talking about features that are not present in the current release version, but will be in the next release. @Steve - why does that page above talk about having to have audio clips Are you talking about my recent updates to the alpha manual? If...

Re: 2.1.2 weirdness with spectral selection

How useful do you think it is for a visually impaired person to set a track to Spectrogram view, enter the frequencies in Spectral Selection Toolbar, open a spectral effect then receive an error message? I agree that is not user friendly, but displaying the upper and lower frequencies in the wavefo...

Re: 2.1.2 weirdness with spectral selection

The advantage (some may say disadvantage) of the high/low frequency numbers in the waveform is that you could then, if you wanted, apply spectral selection effects to all selected tracks irrespective of their track view. I understand Paul would prefer that. To me that makes more sense, given we sto...

Re: 2.1.2 weirdness with spectral selection

But as I said, many sighted folk don't want enabling spectral selection to turn on Spectral Selection Toolbar because of the screen estate it takes up. Who are these "many sighted folk"? We've never had it that way have we, so I don't see how many sighted folk can have objected. On a stan...

Re: Creating aliased frequency peaks by under-sampling

You're welcome.
Actually there was a typing error in the final code snippet. I've corrected that now.

Re: Latency fluctuating from run to run

If it is not a latency issue than why does messing with a latency correction solves it for a moment? I was wondering that myself. Is the "latency correction" the only thing that you are changing, or are you adjusting the "audio buffer" setting as well? Have you tried just restar...
