The Nyquist Prompt was designed to handle short snippets of code, so it doesn't surprise me if there are quirks/bugs when pasting tens of thousands of characters, but it seems OK here (on Linux) for hundreds of thousands of characters.

I want to make a plugin which will do a bunch of random speed-ups and speed-downs on each song, within -20% and +40% speed, changing speed every 5 to 20 seconds. As a starting point, try this code in the Nyquist Prompt on a reasonably short mono track. For testing purposes it changes the speed ever...

I think the text box limit is about 32768 characters. If that is the case on your machine, then it may be platform dependent, or it may not just be a character count limit. I've just tried pasting code into the Nyquist Prompt effect which included 4 extremely long comments (> 30000 characters per c...

The size of the buffers are determined by the largest block size of the selected audio, but it is not critical to the compression algorithm because the two buffers are used in circular fashion, rotated as necessary.

Maybe I've just missed the "Append The Second track To The First Track" button? When you have two tracks in Audacity (ends trimmed if necessary): 1) Ctrl + A (select All) 2) "Tracks menu > Align Tracks > Align End to End" (the second track is moved so that it is "end to end...

so if i install an older version of audacity i can change the volume directly from audacity without affecting windows? Probably not, but you would be making yourself vulnerable to old bugs that are fixed in Audacity 2.0.5. If you would like to make the Audacity playback volume quieter without affec...

As I thought, the "problem" is with your audio, not with the effect. Here I've zoomed in on a small section : offset.png Notice how the left (upper) channel is offset vertically. The waveform is not centred around the horizontal line that indicates the mid point, but is almost entirely abo...

I have one question: it would be so difficult to include the possibility to have a message in the form of "Cosine" wave? In this way it would be possible to have, for message frequency equal to an odd multiples of the carrier, the correspondence of the peaking level of the message with th...

Try logging out and logging back in. Has "normal" sound returned? (you may need to check that playback level is turned up and not muted).
Is the Audigy the only sound card in your system?
