I presume that this is the effect: He-Man.flac The main effect is Reverb. In this example I've overdubbed my own voice using the GVerb effect with room size set about half way up, reverb time at about 6 seconds, damping at about 0.6, and dry signal, early reflection and tail all set around -12 dB. Y...

Indentation: It is recommended that code indentation is applied using spaces rather than tabs. When viewed in a text editor, tabs will be displayed according to the tab setting in the editor, which may be set very differently from the settings in the editor that was used to write the code, so the l...

Here's a new version. There are no changes to the code - the only difference is in the layout of the code. It was brought to my attention that in some text editors the line spacing could be messed up because I used "Tab" to indent rather than spaces. If the editor is set to a large tab siz...

Adobe Audition will use ASIO drivers by default, whereas Audacity will use the standard OS drivers for the audio device. Audacity cannot be distributed with ASIO support due to licensing restrictions. It may be worth checking that you have the latest drivers for your Audiobox - Check on the PreSonus...

If you are able to listen to the radio using WinAmp (a very good, free media player for windows), then it has a "disk writer" plug-in that allows WinAmp to direct the audio stream directly to the hard drive rather than to the sound card, thus creating an audio file. This does not require y...

hq-tone.ny Generates the following types of wave: Sine Square Triangle Sawtooth Inverse sawtooth This is slower than the standard Sine, Square and Sawtooth tone generators, but this plug-in produces tones without aliasing distortion. The standard Tone generator can produce no-alias square waves, bu...
