Re: Customizing the Effects drop-down menu

Topic moved to the feature Request part of the forum. This is quite a common feature request and something that is being considered by the developers. A couple of tips that may help in the mean time: On Windows, if you open the effect menu and then press the first letter of the effect that you want,...

Re: Fine editing of clip boundaries

In Audacity 1.3.14 there is "Preview Cut". The keyboard shortcut is the "C" key. I don't know if this works in Audacity 1.2, but the 1.2 series is really old (and known to have problems on modern computers) and I would highly recommend upgrading to Audacity 1.3.14 http://audacity...

Re: Question on High Pass Filter

Nice clear explanation Ragnar :) Here's some pictures to illustrate: First, some White Noise. Note that the amplitude is essentially the same at all frequencies (within 1 dB) spectrum1.png Now after applying a 6 dB per octave high pass filter at 1000 Hz. Note how the high frequencies still have a fa...

Re: Lost My Project Files

after i exported audacity asked me if i wanted to delete the temporary files. Are you sure it said that? Didn't it ask if you wanted to copy the audio data into the project? after i moved the project files. You need to be very careful about moving Audacity Projects. You should never rename an Audac...

Re: Mono track to Stereo

the very last bit of the voice bundle with a bad S problem did not get affected at all If you post a short sample (FLAC format) of that bad bit I'll have a look/listen and see if I can suggest anything. I noticed that this is present in some of the other of my recordings too, even though they are b...

Re: Best WP Plugin to display Podcasts created in Audacity?

The buzzsprout terms of service appear to be general (and reasonable) rules disallow pirated content or any other content that may infringe copyright. From your description, I presume that the actual content of your PodCast is original material that you have created yourself and that it is only the ...

Re: Upgrade 1.3.14 Causes Audacity to Crash

@Gale, As we seem to have slightly different behaviour on Mac, Linux and Windows, it's probably best that we find out from Bill exactly how to do it right on Macs. I think that we both know "close enough" to not cause any real problems, but to save Mephostopholes from unnecessary hassle I ...

Re: Synchronicity?

Camtasia has been configured to ignore my microphone, but record system sounds. Audacity records the microphone (Samson C01U-USB) I quite surprised that you are able to do that on a Windows computer, so asking for more from the system may be asking too much, but something that you could attempt: Re...

Could you upload a short(ish) audio sample somewhere on the Internet and post a link so that we can hear it.

Re: Lost My Project Files

If it helps i'm using 1.2 on a 7 machine. The recommended version of Audacity for Windows 7 is Audacity 1.3.14 (Unicode). You can get it here: http://audacityteam.org/download/ This article should shed some light on why your Audacity project is broken: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/Audacity_Pr...
