Audacity Forum

Can Ardour play a one second tone completely without adding silence to the end of it? Yes, but so does Audacity when using Jack. The most obvious difference between the two is that the audio sockets in Ardour are persistent whereas for Audacity they appear on play/record then disappear on stop. So ...

By the way, I wasn't criticising, just commenting that it is an unusual filter.
Do you know if it has a name?

The sample rate of the exported file is set by the "Project Rate" (lower left corner of the main Audacity window).
In fact you don't need steps 2 or 3 in your working method. All you need to do is:
1) Import the audio file
2) Set the Project Rate to 8000 Hz
3) Export to create a new file.

Please read the link that I posted. Here it is again: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/au ... ction.html

Also note that Audacity does not directly edit the MP3 file. Audacity "imports" (reads the audio data from) the MP3 file. The waveform that you see in the Audacity track is a copy of the decoded MP3 file. When you have finished editing you will need to "Export" (from the File men...

Click on the waveform at the beginning of the piece that you want to delete and hold the (left) mouse button down while you drag to the right. When you get to the end of the part that you want to delete, release the mouse button. More information about selecting audio can be found in this part of th...

There are actually no notches apart from the stop band (for example, 2 would produce a notch at the nyquist frequency). There are definitely notches for values greater than 2. For example, if you filter white noise with a sample rate of 44100 Hz using a value of 5 you will get notches at 8820 Hz an...

@ Koz. I think Zaragoza is asking for (low latency) monitoring of the microphone. I don't use Macs so I don't know if that is possible. As far as I'm aware the Blue Icicle does not have a headphone socket so zero latency monitoring is out.

I was just wondering why not a low pass or shelf filter rather than N/2 notches at sample-rate/N, 2*sample-rate/N, 3*sample-rate/N....

I've searched through the forum and on-line for occurrences of use cases for regular interval labels. By far the most common use case that came up was "Splitting a long recording for CD tracks". The case given in the manual (Distributing a large file on the internet) was the next most comm...
