Re: remove violin from instrumental mp3

Let me try an analogy: I have some tropical fruit drink - it's very nice. When I drink it I can taste the fresh mango, the pineapple, the nectarine, and if I really concentrate I can taste the lychee. Music is a bit like this - when I record a band I record the drums, the guitars, the vocalists and ...

Re: need to remove silence at end via script

Try this plug-in: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?p=151412#p151412 Perfect, works great; thanks! Unfortunately not quite perfect. There is a minor bug in which silence could be detected incorrectly in some stereo tracks. I've posted a new version here: http://forum.audacityteam.org/view...

Re: Trim Silence

This version fixes a bug in which silence could be detected incorrectly in some stereo tracks. Memory usage has also been reduced a little. To prevent Audacity freezing or crashing if RAM becomes full, RAM usage is limited to (approx) 1 GB (about 47 minutes for a stereo track at 44.1 kHz) Modificati...

Re: Trying to copy recordings on Olympus Digital Voice Recor

I looked on the Olympus web site but there is no VN-7200 listed. Many of the other models (VN-6200, VN-5200, VN-3200 ...) can be connected to the computer via USB, allowing the recordings to be copied over to the computer without needing to "record" them off the Olympus. If you have the in...

Re: Silence problem

I don't know which button you are pressing, but Audacity does not have a "silence button". Have a look at the picture on this page and you may be able to identify what the button that you are clicking is actually for (click on the control in the picture for details) http://manual.audacityt...

Re: Transferring Cassette Tape to Windows Media Library

Personally I'd recommend upgrading to a better media player, but other than that; The first thing to check is that the wav file is where you think it is and check that it plays. Navigate to the location of the file in explorer (file browser) and double click on the wav file. Does it play correctly. ...

Re: Microphone recording levels

If the webcam is USB then it does not use the on-board sound card.
USB microphones are quite popular for the same reason (though their suitability depends on what you want to do).

Re: A few beginners questions about Audacity

Notice that not once in all this did I trash your microphone. It's been my experience that most microphones can do a credible job and what kills them is everything else. Even with a great studio environment, a microphone will sound low quality if the microphone input is low quality. The microphone ...
