Re: Switching between two traks

Nyquist can only access one track at a time, so working with multiple tracks can be tricky. In this case I thing the easiest approach will be to make a plug-in that you can run twice, one for each track separately, and a control to set whether it is to do: a_a_a_ or _b_b_b Essentially what you are d...

Re: Deciphering subliminal messages in a recording

Any particular reason why you think there might be subliminal messages? "Subliminal" just means "below the threshold of sensation", so that covers anything that you can't hear, see, touch. smell or taste. As Audacity is an audio program I presume that you are interested in sublim...

Re: Blending similar tracks with different volumes?

Wow, someone is LOUD :D Even the -12 dB track is clipped in places. For future reference I'd suggest setting both versions 12 dB lower than they are now. You may then be able to get a usable recording from just the (then not clipped) quieter track. How worthwhile it is for you to two versions depend...

Re: Blending similar tracks with different volumes?

I think the envelope tool would work too, but it can get rather laborous if there's a large number of volume spikes in the recording. Yes, the envelope tool will work (though laborious as you say), provided that the recording level does not go so high as to cause distortion. Similarly, as long as t...

Re: Blending similar tracks with different volumes?

What you are describing is called "crossfading", which is basically fading one track out while another track fades in. This can be as simple or complicated as you like ;) I've started writing an article about crossfading here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/User:Stevethefiddle/Fade_and_...

Re: How Do I Remove a Short Bit in the Middle of a Clip?

First you need to select the section that you want to remove. The easiest way is usually to just click on the track and drag along the track. Alternative ways of selecting audio are described here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/audacity_selection.html If you are wanting to leave a gap where t...
