To create a normal audio file, you need to "Export" from Audacity. Audacity natively supports several audio formats, including WAV, AIFF, Ogg, and FLAC, but does not include an MP3 encoder due to license/patent issue. So, to create an MP3 file, you need to either: a) Install LAME according...

However Sample Data Export still doesn't work in HEAD with system.lsp added back. Here is the updated debug output: Well there is clearly something more that is broken on Windows (Sample Data Export works here). Unfortunately there's not such a good clue in the error this time as to where the probl...

(which is why every CD I rip is in flac or previously lossless wma) I'd stick with FLAC. It's been around for a long time (and it's good) and they have no financial interest in making the format obsolete. I have the original Audacity files While the original Audacity project files will give you &qu...

Try this in the Nyquist prompt. Note: if you're using 2.1.0 alpha, enable "legacy" mode. The first three lines are for user input. If you want this as a plugin, make those into " controls ". (setf threshold -20) ;dB (setf min-length 2.0) ;seconds (setf label-text "Silence&qu...

There's quite a lot that should be updated in this plugin, so I'd not suggest spending too much time on it (unless you want to rewrite it from scratch). For personal use, just try different values for "my-srate-ratio". Try changing the line: (setq my-srate-ratio (truncate (/ (snd-srate (mo...

I would use WAV or FLAC. Although 256 kbps MP3 (and similar) provides excellent listening quality, the damage caused by "lossy compression" is cumulative and irreversible. If you need to edit the MP3, then you are starting with some MP3 damage, and if you then export as MP3 you are adding ...

This is a "version 4" Nyquist plugin, so it requires "Audacity 2.1 alpha" or later. The basic concept is the same as the "Regular Interval Labels" that has been shipped with Audacity for several years. It creates labels at regular intervals. Unfortunately Nyquist plugin...

Link provided. I tried downloading one of those files, and it downloaded as " 07-05-10UniversityFountainDowntownF.flac " However, it isn't a FLAC file. It's an HTML file with a ".flac" file extension. Not surprisingly, Audacity was unable to recognise it as a valid FLAC file. Th...

Tip: To make a section repeat over and over, select that section with your mouse, then press shift+spacebar.

Have I done something wrong? I've no idea. I don't know exactly what you did, or what the plugin is. If you got the plugin from the German forum it may be worth asking there. Alternatively, you could post the plugin file here (see: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=64936) and g...
