Re: How can I make Audacity run automatically at a certain t

Audacity has a fairly basic but functional "timer record" feature: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/timer_record.html

Not at all dumb. See "Export Multiple" in the manual (direct link in online version: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/ex ... tiple.html)

Re: Playback / Record Starting With 5 Seconds Lag

I've only used a Digi 003 on Windows, not Mac. It works great with their proprietary drivers and ProTools (also by Avid), but the standard Windows drivers were half crippled, making it difficult to use in any software other than their software.

Re: Create a smooth, normal-distribution like wave form.

I hopped at some point that I could non-symmetrically change the "envelope" to do so. I just noticed that the Range Translator tool is what I was searching for. I've no idea what the "Range Translator" tool is, but it is very easy to "offset" a waveform using a "N...

Re: Adjusting stereo with when recorded with Zoom H6

Perhaps I should add a MS Decoder preset to it? Done: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Nyquist_Effect_Plugins#Channel_Mixer Though it can't compete with the graphics on the Zoom VST plugin. I don't expect that Nyquist plugins will have pretty graphics any time soon, but hopefully "real time p...

Re: Change the frequencies ín the exported file?

FFT always subdivides the entire frequency range, from 0 Hz to half the sample rate, into equal intervals. The frequency bandwidth (0 to half the sample rate), is split in two, then in two again, then in two again ... leading to the "Size" options of 128, 256, 512, 1024 ....65536. To get f...

Re: Create a smooth, normal-distribution like wave form.

Thanks very much, this is precisely what I needed! To sum up: Each of Adjustable Fade > S-Curve {in, out} helps in providing half a normal distribution — they create a "double" curve that bends on both ends; You're welcome. A bit of technical information that you may be interested in (or ...

Re: Adjusting stereo with when recorded with Zoom H6

The task can also be done using the Nyquist Channel Mixer plugin (http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Nyqui ... nnel_Mixer)

Re: Simple pitch change question

For a small change in pitch/speed, force-srate will work well. It is generally faster than resample , and for small changes I find that it subjectively sounds better. For down-sampling more than few tones, resample should be used so as to avoid aliasing distortion. The problem is it only accepts sam...

Re: Create a smooth, normal-distribution like wave form.

I want to create a short (<1s) wave consisting of a maximum amplitude sound. To avoid clicking sounds, I want this wave shape to be as smooth as possible and starting and ending with silence — something very like a normal distribution. Try fading in and out using the "Adjustable Fade" eff...
