Re: Audacity 2.x WIn downloaded but won't start (SOLVED)

I downloaded the installer from Source Forge and it was not recognized as a win32 appl. After reading the forum posts that suggested it might be a corrupted file, I went to cNet and down loaded from there and it worked fine. You may want to check the files on Source Forge. Thanks for the report. I ...

Re: Problem using cut

Is this problem repeatable? If so, could you give steps so that I can reproduce the problem.

Is the length of audio removed (silenced audio + the audio that you are deleting) 262144 samples?

Re: Problem using cut

From my daughters account Audacity doesn't cut correctly. When I try and trim a small piece from the beginning of a recording it does the cut, but it also puts about 5 1/2 seconds of silence after the cut point (losing audio I want to keep). I suspect that the problem is that the Audacity temporary...

Re: Using "select-all" just for audio

Yes, though you have to use 32-bit projects for this to work, otherwise Dither noise is added (Detach at Silences works on absolute silence). The dither is added because all internal processing is done in 32-bit float, but if the track is 16-bit or 24-bit integer, that integer format is returned to...

Re: Audicity not recognizing sound?

Audacity does not directly support ISO disk images. Try IsoBuster.

That's all correct.
"Software Playthrough" should be off (not selected) and "Overdub" should be on (selected).

Re: Transfer Function Effect

with a particular transfer function in the time domain, There's the problem; the "particular" transfer function could be anything. Unless someone can come up with a very clever interface I would expect that by necessity a GUI effect would be limited to specific types of transfer functions...

Re: Possible noise issue in EQ A2.0.3

Got it. I wasn't making the correct selection to reproduce the peaks. An easy way to reproduce the symptoms is to generate a 10 second tone at about 1000 Hz, 0.8 amplitude. The exact frequency, amplitude and duration are unimportant. Then generate about 3 seconds of silence at the end of the tone. L...

Audacity has something far more versatile and powerful, but it's not graphical:

Re: Possible noise issue in EQ A2.0.3

How big is the amplitude of the modified silences (sorry, I can't see the graphics myself)? The spectrum image posted by blatt show significant peaks at 100 Hz and 2000Hz. In particular there is a very pronounced sharp peak at 2000Hz, which corresponds with the upper limit of the band-pass filter d...
