Audacity Forum

I right clicked on a file and sent it to WMP but a window popped up saying that it couldn't be played because it has AUP as the extension. That's not an audio file. A file with an AUP extension is part of an Audacity Project. See here (this is really important) http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/Au...

The analysis of the zero-crossing of the is pretty easy. something like: if (x(n) > 0 && (x(n-1) < 0) is true then its a zero crossing. In Nyquist you could do something like: (if (and (> (aref samples n) 0)(<= (aref samples (1- n)) 0)) where samples is an array of samples grabbed from the ...

I'm generating series of random bits and storing them in an Excel spreadsheet (in the form of 20-place decimals ranging from -1 to 1). I'd like to be able to import them into Audacity in order to run spectral analysis and all the other cool stuff Audacity can do on them. If you can convert the spre...

A single-channel track that is Right or Left feeds to the appropriate output channel. It has no analog on a mixing desk. In this case I'd suggest the Pan slider be greyed or not drawn. Isn't it equivalent to using one side of a stereo channel on a mixing desk? As for Make Stereo Track, the rule is ...

I can't see how installing Audacity 1.3.13 could affect permissions on other files (and it's not something that I've heard of before), but I'm glad that it is now working correctly.

Ah, if you are applying the chain to files ("Apply to Files" button) and the .ogg files are not at 24000 Hz, the project rate will change to respect the rate of each file that is being imported. Doh! Yes of course. If you still want to use Audacity for this task, you'll need to .... There...

What crashed, Audacity or the entire system? If the computer crashed then it is almost certainly a driver problem.

I changed the default to 24000 in the preferences. Wrong place. It's probably best to leave that set at the default 44100 - those preference settings are the default settings for recording. The place to change it is the "Project Rate (Hz)" box that is at the bottom left corner of the main...

What exactly are you wanting to record?
