Re: Varying latency during track

Try generating a 2 minute Click Track (http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/click_track.html) with a tempo of 60 bpm (one click per second). Play it back and time it. Does it last for 2 minutes? (you may want to add an extra tone at the end) Repeat a couple of times to ensure that you get consistent...

Re: Question about envelopes

So the result wasn't what I wanted, because of changing the start/stop time with (extract)? I'm still confused about that... :? The result wasn't what you wanted because your "fade-in" and "fade-out" control signals faded over a duration of "1" (the full duration of th...

Re: Time Track

The current version of Audacity is 2.0.5. It is available here: http://audacityteam.org/download/

If the issue also occurs with 2.0.5, try making the time track a bit taller (drag the bottom edge of the track down with your mouse.
What is the "range" set at?

Re: high pitched background noise when recording from stereo

For a long time I have been using Audacity to record directly from my computer's Stereo Mix, allowing me to record any audio that's playing from any program. It has usually worked flawlessly, but in the last two days a high-pitched background noise has appeared. I presume that this is on the same c...

Re: Convert Note to frequency and frequency to note

The difference may be in how it vibrates your soul. Proponents of the theory claim that it works with real music played by real instruments. Given that real instruments never achieve anywhere near that degree of pitch accuracy, the soul must be a bit flexible about what it vibrates to. Has anyone w...
