Re: multiple files noise removal and loudness unification

Noise reduction is best done on each recording separately (with a new "noise profile" each time).

What sort of camera is that? Is it a camcorder of some type?

Rather than skirting around the subject for longer, why not just tell us exactly what you are trying to do.

Re: Multiple Track Exporting Issues

It sounds like a combination of an Audacity bug and a peculiar way of working. If you are using labels to export multiple, keep all of the "songs" on the same Audacity track (one after another). If you want to have each song on a separate Audacity track, keep them all starting at "tim...

Re: Recording noise getting worse... not better

Yours bounces in the -24 range. Sound goes half and double every 6, so your sound is three times lower volume than the target recording volume. It's much less than "three time". As you say, sound goes half/double every 6 dB (double every +6 dB, half every -6 dB). So if the target level is...

Re: Effects on aux-channel of mixer

Your question appears to be unrelated to Audacity. You may do better asking on the Behringer forum (http://forum.music-group.com/forumdisplay.php?80-BEHRINGER) or a more general forum for "home recording" or similar, rather than here on the Audacity forum. Normally for monitoring the full ...

Re: Distortion in IMA ADPCM, suspect block header issue

I'm just trying to understand more on how IMA ADPCM is packaged into WAV format in Audacity. If I understand your question correctly, encoding the uncompressed audio data from Audacity to IMA_ADPCM is handled by libsndfile. For more information about how libsndfile handles the conversion, you reall...

Building Audacity 2.1.2 on Ubuntu 15.10

These steps were tested with Audacity 2.1.2 rc1 on a clean installation of Lubuntu 15.10. They should also work on other versions of Ubuntu 15.10. If any other version of Audacity is already installed, I would recommend uninstalling it before starting these steps. Prerequisites: Install " build...
