Other compressors allow a minimum attack below 1 ms ... Perhaps they do, but do they go up to 5 seconds attack and 30 seconds release? At the minimum settings, those GMulti compressor setting will not behave like a "dynamic compressor" in the Audacity Compressor - it's too fast for low fr...

but how did you get that from looking that the graphic? Nobody has claimed to get that from the graphic. From a very large FFT I can see that the fundamental of a MIDI note 60 "Pluck" is about 261 Hz: 242.248535 -91.680298 244.940186 -87.737885 247.631836 -83.080460 250.323486 -77.384331 ...

The simplest way (if it works for you) is to select either "default" or "pulse" as the recording input (on a standard installation the "default" is "pulse" so both are the same), then select the required input source in "PulseAudio Volume Control". U...

Noise Gate reduces the level of noise that has higher level audio before and after it (as you look at the Timeline). The higher level audio is not affected. The track remains the same length as before That is correct. So it depends on whether hiddenharmonies wants to A) silence the low level audio,...
