Audacity Forum

I'm trying to understand how this proposal would work, and I have a question.
If the proposal was implemented and you try playing something in Audacity and the playback level is too quiet, and the level is turned up full in Audacity, how would you make it louder?

I'm going somewhat off-topic here, but just as a point of interest, one of the things going for Nyquist is that, despite being an interpreted language, it has many built-in "primitives" written specifically for audio processing, that are written in compiled C. Where looping through samples...

By the way, please be aware that this forum is "staffed" by volunteers in their spare time.

For example, if I want to mix tracks 4, 5 and 7 of a 20 track project, why would I select the other tracks? In this case, I wou...

Nyquist's effects are slow and severely limited by selection length; Rather a sweeping statement ;) Nyquist effects tend to be slower than C++ effects, but not always the case (my "alias free square wave generator", programmed in Nyquist, is many times faster than the alias free square wa...

Note that if you have "View > Show Clipping" enabled, the red vertical lines are "warnings" to indicate that audio "may" be clipped. The red lines appear where the amplitude is 0 dB or greater. It is possible to have a perfect unclipped waveform, but if the highest peak...
