Re: Can't get scripting to work on Lubuntu 13.10

What should happen, if this were part of the Audacity release, is that building would create the module .SO, then installing would copy it to a modules folder in the installation directory. Mod-script-pipe is not part of the official release, so it does not get "installed". By default, bui...

Re: Hard Limiter not available while Editing Chains...

If a Noise Profile exists, that Noise Profile will be used. If a Noise Profile does not exist: If the Chain is applied to files, the first file (all of it) is used to create the Noise Profile. If the Chain is applied to the current project, the current Selection is used to create the Noise Profile.

Re: Remove same audio sections from audio files - Detect & T

Yes it's pretty hard to do. Do Midomi or Shazam recognise the intro that you want to remove? Noise Removal analyses the spectrum of the selection, similar to using "Plot Spectrum" (http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/plot_spectrum.html) and then looks for sections of audio that match the ...

Re: Can't get scripting to work on Lubuntu 13.10

I presume that you read the bit where it says that Mod Script Pipe is experimental and not supported ;) Try creating a folder: ~/.audacity-files/modules/ Put the mod-script-pipe.so file into that folder, then restart Audacity. Any better? There is a test perl script included in the SVN tree: "/...

Re: Remove same audio sections from audio files - Detect & T

The question: How can we crop/trim the all audio files according to specific audio clip? In other sayings "detect same part and remove it" ? You probably can't, unless there is a distinct characteristic of the sound to test for. For example, you can test for silence, or for non-silence, o...

Re: Trying to get Audacity to record on Debian linux

If you do not already have it installed, install "pavucontrol" (PulseAudio Volume Control). Ensure that no other audio programs are running - particularly ensure that you have no web pages open that contain sound. Open Audacity and set both the recording and playback devices to "Pulse...

Re: possible to make this plugin? ("auto draw wave")

If you know of a solution that already exists to smooth out the waveform incrementally and is not limited to small sections of audio such as with the repair tool then that might actually be helpful to him, myself, and many others. "Smoothing" a waveform can mean a variety of things. Here ...

Re: Problem importing VOB

If you are currently trying to import directly from the DVD, try first copying the VOB files to your hard drive and then try to import from there. File access from optical drives is far less robust than from a hard drive and I've seen all sorts of mysterious problems when trying to read files (rathe...

Re: Hard Limiter not available while Editing Chains...

It's a LADSPA plug-in: http://www.ladspa.org/ There are also VST plug-ins (mostly Windows) and Audio Units (AU) plug-ins (Mac only). The "Plug-ins and Libraries" page on the main Audacity web site says a bit about different plug-in types: http://audacityteam.org/download/plugins For detail...

Re: stereo recording

You could try using a "Limiter" effect to push down the level of the hi-hat.
