Re: Cut or delete also adds silence to 6 seconds of the wave

I then transferred the music.aup file and the music_data folder to a different MAC Alarm bells start ringing.... If I generate a chirp or tone or noise as was suggested - 1- I get the correct interval length (30 secs) generated but with silence (no tone, noise etc...) and an additional 5-15 seconds...

Re: Audio from powerpoint

If the problem is that you can't extract the WAV file from the PPT file, see if this helps: http://labnol.blogspot.co.uk/2006/11/so ... audio.html

Re: Control tracks for various effects

Working with "sound" as a concept probably includes a lot of ready made sound functions. Yes there are a lot of ready made functions which have been written in highly optimised (computer generated) C++ code. I know nothing about them. Guess there are tutorials and manuals. Yes, there is e...

Re: Can I change the sample rate of a recording

How do I determine the sample rate the file currently has? Right click on the files and look at the "properties" tab. I've encountered several books where I can only play at normal speed. and you "think" that is because they are not 44.1 kHz, or you "know" that is beca...

Re: vinyl conversion and normalizing

Normalize does the same thing except it does left and right independently. Amplify pushes the level "by" a specified amount. For example it can increase the level by +3dB, or decrease the level by -6 dB. Normalize pushes the peak level "to" a specified level. For example, it can...

Re: Cut or delete also adds silence to 6 seconds of the wave

What am I doing wrong? We can't really say unless you tell us exactly what you did prior to cutting/deleting that 1 second. For example, if you open Audacity and generate 30 seconds of noise (Generate menu), then delete 2 seconds from that track, does the problem occur? What do we need to do , step...

Re: Importing non audio files as raw data

When you "Import Raw", Audacity reads in "numbers" from the file. It decodes the "bits" of the file according to the import options that you have selected, so for example, if you select "Signed 16 bit PCM, Little-endian" it will interpret the binary digits of ...

Hi, just popped back in before going out again... But that isn't what I asked for (The Text above is only an example and not subject of the diskussion). Yes, but you also wrote in your example ticket: "No issues identified yet." I'm identifying an issue. The following code inserted in a ge...
