Re: Help needed for using frequency analysis

The x axis is scaled automatically according to the sample rate. I think that it's been requested previously for manual scaling, but the ability to do so would probably be less useful than it first appears, unless there was a major overhaul of how the tool works. The analysis breaks down the audio i...

Re: Submit your EQ Curves

Congratulations Irish, quite a mammoth job.

Re: Mp3 download lame_enc.dll from untrusted source. Why?

Re: Mp3 download lame_enc.dll from untrusted source. Why?

It might be better to OPEN SOURCE the code under GNU/GLP and put it on a free service like google code, sourceforge, etc. There is an open source alternative to MP3 - Ogg Vorbis http://www.vorbis.com/ Audacity fully supports Ogg natively - no additional downloads required, it's built into Audacity....

Are you going to tell us what that "other" program is?
Which version of Windows are you using?
Which version of Audacity are you using?

Re: Mp3 download lame_enc.dll from untrusted source. Why?

Due to the controversy around MP3 patent claims it is not possible for Audacity to host LAME. Fortunately Buanzo is able to offer free downloads to the many millions of Audacity users. The cost of hosting is partly covered by advertising on his web site. Occasionally third party advertisements (over...

Re: how to find end of sound in overrun recording?

Press Ctrl + F The waveform will then be fitted into the window. You should be able to see where the audio ends and turns into silence. Select most (not all) of the silence (you don't want to accidentally cut off too much) by clicking and dragging along the waveform. Press the Del key to delete the ...

Re: Keeping audacity window open

Can't you just have it not-maximised and alongside the other program window?
Why do you need it on top?
