Re: FLAC conversion in 16 bit should be improved

The 24 bit conversion is great, it has no noise, just like the original 24 bit FLAC I'm exporting. Unless you turn dither off, both 16-bit and 24-bit FLAC exports have dither noise.

Re: Silent Subliminals [solved?]

Re: record vocal+guitar with 2 mics, mixer & laptop on audac

Unless you have a USB interface that you have not told us about, the weak point is the sound card in the laptop.That can be easily and cheaply remedied by adding a Behringer UCA 202 (or similar) USB sound card (about $30).

Code: Select all

grep -l "name of track" *.aup
will search all .AUP files in the current directory.

Re: EZ-Patch Double Note

The damage is mostly in the left channel, so it is possible to make a pretty good repair using the "Repair Channel" effect: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Nyquist_Effect_Plug-ins#Repair_Channel Tip: use the Spectrogram view to "see" the damage. http://manual.audacityteam.org/o...
