I'd use different software. It is possible to do in Audacity, but without MIDI support each note would need to be created manually which would be an extremely long and tedious job.

Re: Compatibility with newer FFMpeg lib

Audacity uses software "hooks" to integrate with the FFmpeg library. Unfortunately after FFmpeg version 0.8, the FFmpeg developers changed the hooks. In order to work with later versions there are two approaches that the Audacity developers can take. They could update the hooks in Audacity...

Re: synching audio and video

It seems that the audio is a little slow (or is it too fast?). Is there some why to "nudge" the entire audio coming out of Audacity slightly faster or slower so it lines up with the video, better? The cause of the speed difference that the sound card and video cam are separate devices run...

Re: Portable (load "somelib.lsp") -- why not?

Perhaps we could use *RUNTIME-PATH* On Linux, this points to the nyquist folder where all the .lsp files are. Sadly that does not appear to work on Windows. How about something like this in init.lsp (setf *NYQPATH* (current-path)) (setf *PLUGINPATH* (let ((parentpath (subseq *NYQPATH* 0 (- (length ...

Re: Using Compression while recording?

Record at a lower level to avoid clipping. You can apply "Amplify" and/or "Compressor" and/or other effects after recording.

Re: Using Bass/Treble Equalizer

Ensure that your track is 32 bit float format.
The track sample format can be changed if necessary in the track drop down menu: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/tr ... _menu.html

Re: 2.0.4 records static?

Try the "hw" options in the device toolbar. These allow you to access your sound card via ALSA, bypassing PulseAudio.

Re: Can't choose "mono" option

I don't know what "screen recording software" you are using, but I'd guess that it is the same reason. Microphones are mono (unless they are specifically a "stereo microphone" but those are really two microphones stuck together in the same case). If your software is trying to rec...
