How big a space?
Does the recording continue normally after the space?
Is part of the recording missing where the space occurs, or is it like silence has been inserted into the track?

Re: Can't Record - Also "Error opening Sound Device"

The GPL license requires that all of the required source code for GPL licensed software is freely available. Audacity is released ...

Re: AGC - Automatic Gain Control

In this version I've attempted to combine both "squelch" functions into one slider.
I've assumed that the higher the squelch level, the greater the required muting.

Re: AGC - Automatic Gain Control

Here's a bad recording: bad-recording.wav Try AGC with default settings and you will notice that the "background" noise is greatly amplified. The "background noise peak level is around -20 dB, so set the Squelch to -18 dB (a little above the noise floor). The background noise is not a...

Re: AGC - Automatic Gain Control

My one reservation about removing the Leveller effect is that it is the only "Distortion" effect that is shipped with Audacity. Personally I find the Leveller effect pretty useless for "evening out the volume", but it can come in useful as a distortion effect, especially as it is...
