Re: Recording and Burning to CDs

Also does Audacity Compress the audio file so that it can be emailed? MP3 and OGG are compressed formats. File size of an MP3 or OGG file are typically around 1/4 to 1/8th of the size of a WAV file (depending on the setting used) and may be as small as 1/10th of the size of a WAV file. Note that th...

Re: Bassboosting, Split to Mono FIRST?

It's mostly rap, recorded in 320kbps. If it has been professionally mastered, then the low bass will be centre-panned mono, so no need to mess with the channels before boosting the bass - just take care to not cause clipping. Applying Normalize, and then the Limiter effect after boosting the bass (...

Re: Lock tool bar arrangement

Can someone explain what makes locking the tool bars location impossible? It's not "impossible", but the behaviour (algorithm) must be precisely defined so that it works in all cases. The current algorithm IS precisely defined and does work in all cases, though (clearly) not in a way that...

Please explain.
The only functional change that I'm aware of since August 2009 is that the Attack/Release time now allows smaller values (the maximum value is unchanged).

Re: Bassboosting, Split to Mono FIRST?

Hi, I'm a basshead and been enhancing my music for couple of years now, suddenly some dude told me that you have to split the track to MONO first. Then boost the bass to 0db. So when it's back to Stereo again the plotspectrum will read +6db but will be 0db since the bass is a mono signal. Which way...

Re: Lock tool bar arrangement

even if that means some toolbar might slide out of view because the window is too small... -1 That would be a nightmare for the support team. "Why can't I enable the ... toolbar?" If the toolbar arrangement is too large for the window size then I think that the toolbars must be rearranged...
