Do you also have the _data folders to go with them?

If you're only wanting to reduce the spikes by a few dB then you could use this "limiter" effect: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=59143 Note that the audio should be Amplified/Normalized to 0 dB before using the effect. The effect should only be used within the norma...

I had imported 17 tracks and even though I only had one selected, it was analyzing all of them, That should not happen. I don't see how it can happen - Nyquist plug-ins can't do that, they can only process tracks that are selected. By default, if you don't have a selection in Audacity and you try t...

It can be done, but it's a little bit tricky. For this to work correctly, you need to select the same number and same type of track(s) in the "paste to" project as the "copy from" project. Mono audio tracks can only be pasted into mono audio tracks, stereo into stereo and label i...

Dragging a little way past will work just as well. 2) If you drag too far past the end, while you have the mouse button held down you can drag back the other way to get the sel...

As an experiment, what happens if you convert the song to mono (Tracks menu > Stereo Track to Mono)?

Does anyone other than negev actually get "infinite dragging" beyond the end of the selection? I've tested on Linux and Windows and drag selecting will extend for some distance beyond the end, then it stops. It does not extend infinitely. Is this behaviour different on Mac OS X with Audaci...

This thread's a few years old. In the time between, has a command-line interface been created for simple things? Such as open a file, export it as another format, and to do so as though the user had gone through the GUI? Audacity has remained as a GUI based application. For command line functionali...
