Re: Help - Audio Conversion

Extracting audio from VOB files requires importing using FFMpeg. To install FFmpeg see here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/FAQ:Installation_and_Plug-Ins#ffdown Batch processing is achieved using the Audacity "Chains" feature. Chains may be customised to suit your needs (though there a...

Re: Nyquist Reverb plugin

Maybe we could improve this code and replace the ugly GVerb effect from the Audacity Windows version? +1, but not just the Windows version. My vote is to replace GVerb in all versions of Audacity. Unfortunately Nyquist plug-ins tend to run rather slowly on Linux, but that's a price that I'd be happ...

Re: Improving editing and processing tools

What is apparently not possibile with Audacity, and what I miss, is a fast-select of larger blocks of audio, by using the page-up and page-down keys + shift, as is the case with Sound Forge. Audacity is not Sound Forge so it is unrealistic to expect short cuts and procedural methods to be the same ...

There is currently no way to automatically name tracks.

Re: help

I presume that you mean that you have some sort of USB cassette player plugged into the computer USB port?
Set the Recording (Input) device in the Audacity Device Toolbar to the USB option.
Ensure that the USB device is connected before you open Audacity.

Re: Backing up and Archiving

I'm not disagreeing with the potential benefits of a more comprehensive article about strategies for backing up. I think that such an article would be very worthwhile.

Re: help

Yes you can get the old version back, but I doubt that will help with the problem. It is far more likely that the problem is that something has changed with your computer sound system or sound system settings. Are you still using the same computer with the same sound card and the same operating syst...

Re: Backing up and Archiving

Once again, that is manifestly not true! Looking at your screen capture, highlighted in blue just a couple of lines below " Overview of an Audacity project " (near the top of the page) it says: " If coming back to your project later, it's always a sensible precaution to export a loss...

Re: Support Files

It is helpful feedback for the people that post help on the forum if they know whether their suggestion has worked. Also it can be useful for other users that search the forum looking for solutions to a problem that they may have. As to support files, I was watching a tutorial in YouTube, and the pe...

Re: GVerb bug

I just remember that some years ago I had wrapped Roger's code from the Nyquist Reverb Example into an Audacity Nyquist Reverb plugin . Maybe we can improve the code and replace the ugly GVerb effect from the Audacity Windows version. - edgar I've also got some Nyquist reverb plug-ins including ste...
