Try this code in the Nyquist Prompt effect (http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/ny ... rompt.html):

so is the other default Audacity Compressor the same--per it being applicable for stereo or mono and when stereo--designed to maintain original stereo image..(etc.)? Unfortunately no. The built-in Audacity compressor processes each channel separately. In most cases this will not matter because usua...

I always record with the master on +10db There should be no need to set the master that high. The "channel gain" (the black "gain" knob at the top of the channel controls) probably needs turning up. Turn up the channel gain until you can just get the channel "clip" lig...

What sort of speakers? How do they connect to your computer? USB speakers?

From a licensing point of view it would be much simpler to use an open format such as Ogg Vorbis: http://www.vorbis.com/faq/

You can of course "cascade" a series of first order lp filters to give an approximation of a higher order filter. These two snippets will both produce similar results (over most of the audio range), but the first can accept a sound as the filter frequency: (setq freq 1000) (lp (lp s freq) ...

Note that music that is played by real people (not by computer) rarely stays at exactly one tempo. The example backing track that you posted is about 124 bpm, but because of the natural swing and feel in the music, it is sometimes a little quicker and sometimes a little slower.

The lp function can accept a flonum (floating point number) or a sound as the cutoff parameter. lowpass2 , lowpass8 , etc can only accept a number. See: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~rbd/doc/nyquist/part8.html#index423 and: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~rbd/doc/nyquist/part8.html#index444 by the way, for Lisp cod...

It means that gain reduction due to a peak in one channel of a stereo track will be applied to both channels. Doing so maintains the original stereo image, whereas processing the channels independently can cause the stereo to swing from side to side.

The effect may be used on mono or stereo tracks.

Note that for YouTube there are plugins available for Firefox that allow downloading from YouTube, which is quicker and generally better quality than recording.
