Re: Can the performance of Nyquist in Audacity be improved ?

The efficiency of Nyquist plug-ins is largely down to the plug-in design. Nyquist is an interpreted language, so loop structures tend to be slow (the code has to be re-evaluated each time). Nyquist includes a large number of DSP primitives which are written by computer in highly optimised C code. Co...

Re: Reverb only in headphones

Possibly an "enhancement" provided by your sound card. You have not said what sort of computer you are on, so I've no idea where you would look for that, but if you are on Windows, try looking in the control panel For Windows 7 and earlier, try also looking near the clock/date on the deskt...

Re: Help- Trouble loading FFmpeg library

What are the track sample rates? (look in the info box on the left end of each track). Update- I tried exporting the song and it seemed to export fine. There were some locating issues with the LAME files shown below. What format did you export as? Do you have LAME installed? Do you ever export from ...

Re: Help- Trouble loading FFmpeg library

When the tracks are playing, the stereo tracks will go out of sync, then it sounds like it tries to readjust it but it just keeps going out of sync from the click that's playing and starts playing with partial skips in it. It'll start like that or with a small bit of audio missing and then it throw...

Re: Science - how to see frequency

I've split your post from the other topic as it is less confusing if we use separate threads (topics) for separate subjects. I was wondering if my students would be able to see frequency. Is this possible? How about the track spectrogram view? (see here for more info: http://manual.audacityteam.org/...

Re: Help- Trouble loading FFmpeg library

I went ahead with an AVG scan not too long ago That sounds like longer ago than "I might have gotten a virus the other day" Where could I get a compatible verision or update the one I (apparently) have? This will not solve the problem: "It would play, then cut out and get all mixed u...

Re: Help- Trouble loading FFmpeg library

FFmpeg is an optional extra that provides support for importing/exporting a wide range of audio formats (in addition to those that are supported as standard). FFmpeg is not required for Audacity to run, and FFmpeg is not included in the standard download. Those messages indicate that Audacity has no...

Re: Add track display view to AUP

In respect to WaveTracks I do not understand your distinction between "attribute" & "element"; I'm looking at this from the AUP file (XML) point of view. Currently we have a structure like: <wavetrack name="Audio Track" channel="2" linked="0" mu...

Re: Add track display view to AUP

In the first case your guess is partially right based on how the enumerated types were changed; In the example: "so they were not in step with previous versions" In other words, not just adding a new one, but jumbling them up to some degree. I suppose a sanity check should be added to ens...
