Re: Sound Finder / Silence Finder improvements

Why not simplify still further and have three plug-ins: Label Sound, Label Silence and Advanced Sound Finder? That would be one possibility, and I think quite a good option. We need to keep the number of plug-ins that are bundled with Audacity down to a reasonable size so that the menus are not unr...

Re: Help - Audio Conversion

I would ideally like to avoid this step if possible,.... Even if that could be done (which it can't) it would still be better to copy the VOB files to the hard drive first so that any possible read errors can be dealt with separately and not in the middle of a batch processing run. (b) File-Import ...

Re: Driver needed

You didn't say which MBox or which Windows. It is essential that the correct driver is used to match the hardware and the operating system. The wrong drivers may make the entire computer unstable.

Re: Recording two inputs at once

Just a quick reply before I log off for the night (in case you are in a different time zone and itching to get going with this) -
When you have the stereo track, vocal one side, guitar the other, Click on the name of the track and select "Split to Mono" from the drop down menu.

Re: Sound Finder / Silence Finder improvements

If it is decided that these enhancements are worth having (they have all been requested by users) then I think that it would be worth expanding the "Silence Finder" just a little so that there is a choice to either mark silences (point label) or mark sounds (region label). This would provi...

Re: Sound Finder / Silence Finder improvements

Some minor updates to this one. Error message added if no labels are returned due to the "Disregard isolated sounds" setting being too high. RMS window size increased to 20 ms. Silence threshold lowered to -30 dB (peak) "Disregard isolated sounds" slider range increased to 60 sec...

Re: Sound Finder / Silence Finder improvements

I'm not sure that I'm quite happy with the wording of: "Minimum label length (optional)" I am happy with the behaviour for this setting, it does what it is intended to do, but the description does not always match the behaviour. The purpose of this setting is to allow detected sounds to be...

Re: Uploading mp3 files to LibriVox incomplete and garbled

Unless you manually reset the Audacity Preferences, reinstalling Audacity does not change anything, so it looks most likely that the problem is with the uploading. As a test, would you be able to put a file onto disk/USB stick and try uploading from a different computer with a different Internet con...
