Audacity Forum

To stand any chance of improving that recording you will need the original unprocessed recording. Someone has already tried to "clean up" that recording, which pretty much puts an end to further improvement. I would guess that the audio quality of the original is quite poor, so there may n...

There is a new "RMS Normalize" plug-in available that may be useful to people engaged in producing audiobooks.
It is available here: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... 78#p293878

This effect " normalizes " the selected audio to a specified RMS level. This effect does not change the dynamics, it only changes the overall level. Possible uses: Recordings for commercial use (such as audiobooks) are frequently required to meet a specified "dB RMS" range. For e...

I don't use cooledit or mindsync so I don't know what you are referring to. Officially published Nyquist plug-ins are here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Download_Nyquist_Plug-ins You can also use the "Advanced search" link to search the Nyquist boards on this forum (link near top righ...

The first page of the manual provides links to many of the most important features. For example: if you hover your mouse pointer over the picture of the Audacity interface, the name of that part of the interface will pop up, and clicking will take you to the relevant section of the manual. In the le...

Audacity will record stream but audition won't but audition is a better editor. Adobe Audition has some features / abilities that Audacity does not, and there are a few things that Audition can do better than Audacity, but overall I find Audacity to be quicker, easier and more productive to work wi...

Attached is a plug-in that produces the same effect as the old Hard Limiter effect. The controls are a little different (simpler) than the old version. The "Threshold level (dB)" control sets the level at which clipping is applied. The "Mix (%)" control sets the "wet/dry&quo...

Thanks for the clarification Gale. I agree that for a very small amount of clipping the difference is negligible, but Franky666 wrote that he was using the Limiter with settings: "Soft Clip, 0, 0, -10, 25, No" These setting produce a significant amount of clipping when applied to a tone wi...

In what way are they different to the "Binaural Beats" plug-in for Audacity?

This is what I get when using the clipping settings in the Limiter effect.
The first half is soft clipping at -10 dB, the second half is hard clipping at -10 dB.
To me the change in sound is immediately obvious. Is it not obvious to you?
