Re: making a matrix

You're more likely to get replies if you avoid jargon abbreviations. If you mean "soundboard", please write that in full - this is an international forum and "SBD" is likely to mean nothing in countries where they are called "mixing desk" or "mixing console". ...

Did you look at mod-script-pipe?
The source code is in /lib-src/mod-script-pipe/

The full Audacity source code is available from svn: http://code.google.com/p/audacity/source/checkout

Re: Newbie Encoding Question

Saving as WAV (or AIFF) will be virtually lossless. It's encoding to MP3 (or other lossy format) that does the damage. Is that not clear? MP3 encoding always loses some information and reduces the quality. Encoding at a high bit rate minimises the losses, but there are always some losses when encod...

Re: Flat mp3 frequency response in an automobile

A hardware solution would probably be the best solution. A programmable equalizer to go between the line level output of the player and the sound system amplifier. Perhaps such a thing could be constructed from the Raspberry Pi?

Re: USB HID Joysticks and Gamepads

I'm not a programmer, but I would think that it may be possible to add HID support with a "module". Have a look here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Gui_Plug-ins In particular, have a look at mod-script-pipe http://manual.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=Scripting You will also find dev...

Re: zoom R8 recorder 8 track

If you are able to export WAV files from the Zoom (see the Zoom manual) then you will be able to import the WAV files into Audacity (File menu > Import)

Re: USB HID Joysticks and Gamepads

Audacity has no built in support for joysticks or gamepads but it does have comprehensive support for keyboard control: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/ke ... ences.html

I think that you would need to bind your HID to keyboard keys and/or mouse. See your HID documentation for this.

Re: Interference when recording

That looks like some sort of feedback loop happening.

The first thing to check in in Audacity "Transport" menu. Check that "Software Playthrough" is off (not selected).

If that is not the problem, look in the Windows Mixer, and see what controls affect the issue.

Re: Currupt audio in VLC

Definitely looks like a VLC problem.

Probably best to try resetting the VLC preferences (see here).
If that does not fix it, try asking here: http://forum.videolan.org/
