The Nyquist SND-AVG function has the option to compute the RMS value of a "block" of samples. I assume that this is what we need here. SND-AVG computes either the peak of a block of samples, or the average of a block of samples, depending on whether the final argument evaluates to 1 or 2 ...

Go into the Windows Sounds control panel and ensure that there is a recording device enabled. See here for details: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Mixer ... es#vistacp

In order to compare signals it would be helpful to integrate over the signals (=>area underneath the RMS-graph) with varying intervalls. An intervall could be the entire selection ( which the RMS-command was applyied to), but more useful might be to divide the selection into multiple intervalls and...

This is for mono tracks only. The output is in the debug window. (setq window-size 50) ; rms window ms (setq ws (/ window-size 1000.0)) (setf s (rms s (/ ws))) (setq times ()) (format t ""rms values",") (dotimes (num (snd-length s ny:all)) (format t "~a," (snd-fetch s))...

You've not said, but is this a USB cassette player?

If it is, the device will appear as a Recording device in the Window Sounds control panel (see here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Mixer ... es#vistacp )
