Aim for getting the waveform about half the track height (about -6 dB). If the 78s are very crackly it won't matter if a few crackles go higher than that, but keep the main "musical" waveform away from the top/bottom of the track. (there is no magic number for setting the recording level c...

That's a neat idea - I like it

There are three MP3 codecs: MPEG-1 layer III, MPEG-2 layer III and MPEG-3 layer III. Each use slightly different encoding methods and support different sample rate/bit rate combinations. As you can see here: http://lame.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/lame/lame/doc/html/usage.html, 144 kbps is a supporte...

Rescan without selecting a plugin does not remove that plugin from pluginregistry.cfg. Can you see any reason it should not do so? Is it supposed to be removed from the plugin registry, or just marked as "don't use"? I'm not sure what the intention is. I can see a good reason for keeping ...

Windows nightly 26th November, the file system.lsp is missing from the nyquist folder.

"Die samplefrequenz der tonspur muss mindestens 44100Hz sein" According to Google Translate: "The sample frequency of the sound track must be at least 44100". What is the sample rate of the track you are working on? (look on the panel on the left end of the track). If it is less...

To do so we will need to create a way of translating these numbers into human readable strings, writing tha AUP in pseudo code: if (display() == WaveformDisplay) write("wave"); else if (display() == WaveformDBDisplay) write("wavedb"); else if (display() == SpectrumDisplay) write...
