Audacity Forum

Could you give more details. How are you listening to Audacity? Headphones or speakers? How are they connected to the computer? Is it a laptop computer? What sort of buzz is it? Is it a loud buzz or a quiet buzz? If you play music through Audacity, can you hear the music and the buzz or just a buzz?...

You could try running the latest version of Ubuntu as a Live CD and see if that works.

I've been playing with some recursive code (loops get boring over time). I was thinking that this might be a good use for an a-list: ;; association list of parameters (setf params '((KP . (1100 1700)) (ST . (1500 1700)) (1 . (700 900)) (2 . (700 1100)) (3 . (900 1100)) (4 . (700 1300)) (5 . (900 13...

I'm not sure exactly what part of ALSA the fix is in - Ubuntu use a different naming system from ALSA so it's not obvious, but most of the packages for Quantal are at 1.0.25 whereas most of the current ALSA source code is at 1.0.26

One last bit for now as it's late now and I need sleep. ;;; generate the MF tone (defun mftone (hz1 hz2 dur) (mult 0.4 (sim (osc (hz-to-step hz1) dur)) (osc (hz-to-step hz2) dur))) ;; call the function (abs-env (sim (at 0 (mftone 1100 1700 0.1)) (at 1 (mftone 700 1700 0.1)) (at 2 (mftone 1100 500 0....

As the MF tones all require exactly two frequencies, we can create a function with one argument for each frequency. We also want to set the duration so we'll use an additional argument for the duration. The hzosc function that we have been using so far does not take a parameter for duration. Rather ...

though I do have to say me and functional languages don't go well together. (My experience with trying to be forced to learn one went badly, and that's soured my view of such languages, even though I do see the power behind them.) OK, point taken - I'll be gentle :D Which works quite well I must sa...

This is the bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45813 This is the (duplicate) report that relates directly to the IO4: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49056 The fix was committed (put into the official source code) on 2012-05-11 To fix the problem you need ALSA more recent...

20 minutes and 39 seconds, stereo, 48kHz sample rate 24 bits will be 356544000 bytes. It doesn't matter where it comes from or how it got there, that is the size. There may be a few extra bytes due to metadata but nowhere near enough to account for the difference that you are describing. How have yo...

You can either export from Audacity as MP3 (requires that you have LAME isntalled http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/faq_installation_and_plug_ins.html#lame) or you can use a third party mMP3 encoder to convert the WAV files. We generally recommend exporting a WAV file from Audacity even if you wa...
