Audacity Forum

I want to know the average loudness (in decibels) "Loudness" is subjective (for someone that is totally deaf, nothing is loud). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness This topic includes some tools for determining various types of "average" measures: http://forum.audacityteam.org...

Audacity won't do that.
Perhaps "MultiPlay" would fit your needs better: http://www.audiovisualdevices.com.au/so ... multiplay/

Audio from CDs should not have DC off-set, regardless of the original recording.
How have you extracted the audio from the CDs?

They've used a pitch bend effect on the vocal track.
You can get a similar effect using Audacity 1.3.12
Select the bit that you want to change, then
"Effect menu > Sliding Time Scale/Pitch Shift"
Set "Final Pitch Shift" to -12 semitones

Topic moved. A common cause of this problem (when it occurs with Audacity 1.3.12 on Vista or Win 7) is bad sound card drivers. Windows will often use generic sound card drivers rather than drivers that were specifically made for the exact sound card in the machine. Also, many of the original Vista a...

Which video editor to use is a separate issue from the Audacity version. Audacity will just be used to edit/process a WAV file, the video program is required to recombine the new (processed) audio with the original video image. To extract the audio from an MP4 video file you can use "WinFF"...

So what is the point of the OP-amp buffer here? It makes sure the input on the recording device does not get over driven? The input impedance of the Op-amp buffer is very high, so effectively what the mixer sees is the Insert Send directly connected to the Insert Return, which is virtually the same...

Unfortunately the Audacity CLI (on tests on Windows 7 x64) is up to five time slower than using lame_enc.dll There appear to be a whole host of optimisations available for Lame, including builds that optimised for multi-core processors, AMD processors, and 64-bit systems. How well does Audacity usi...

I think the problem can be easily resolved, but at the moment there's some important parts of the picture that I'm missing, so hopefully you can bare with me and fill in some of the missing pieces. When I save a file I highlight the song after it is recorded on a new project, then I copy, the I open...

would it be possible for someone to create an add-on EQ that could be added to Audacity, that would allow us to adjust the EQ on the fly? You can do that on Linux using any equalizer that supports Jack . On Windows it may be possible by using Virtual Audio Cable to route the output of Audacity to t...
