Re: Sound Finder / Silence Finder improvements

under your scheme, neither the "simple" nor "advanced" effect would have a default for sound regions. I find that unacceptable. Now that I've had chance to sleep on this, I do see your point that if we have two "song labelling tools" (as we have now) then it is useful ...

Re: Sound Finder / Silence Finder improvements

Which glosses over that there is also a demand (seen again in the votes) for minimum distance between labels in silence finder. That will be tricky with the existing SilenceMarker.ny code. It's already like a plate of spaghetti without adding new logic to it. (Adding region labels does not require ...

Re: Sound Finder / Silence Finder improvements

I am not very clear why the first grouped label in your image doesn't end at about 2 mins. The first sound starts after few seconds. It is less than 2 minutes, so the next sound is added to the group. It is still less than 2 minutes so the next sound is added to the group. ... At the 2 minute mark ...

I get the same result as this on Win XP SP3 with Audacity 2.0.

Re: authorizing my pc

Audacity does not require authorisation or registration.
"Addictive Drums" may require registration but that program has nothing to do with us.
Addictive Drums does not work in Audacity. Audacity does not support VSTi (VST instruments).

Re: Lost important recording

You don't need the Undo if you use the "Stop" - as that leaves the recorded audio track up that point intact. I meant that if the user wants to "Cancel" the recording after it has started then they can use "Stop" to stop the recording followed by "Ctrl+Z" (or...

Re: Lost important recording

as Vaughan has recently pointed out in an email on the devel email thread I do understand the difference in English between "Stop" and "Cancel" ... I think that Vaughan has a point there, but from a naive user perspective who may be more familiar with cassette recorders, you don...

Re: Sound Finder / Silence Finder improvements

Leave "overlapping" in then, in principle, though I think it is more "advanced" than the numbering feature. It is perhaps more "advanced", but it should perhaps be the default. Can you think of any user cases where it would be desirable to allow labels to overlap? I'd ...
