Creating an Executable Bash Script File In the previous example we had 12 lines of code. Rather than needing to type, or copy/paste this into a terminal window each time we want to use it, it would be much more convenient if we could just save it as a file and then "run" the file when we ...

I usually use semicolons when running such commands from the command line Semicolons are nice when running a series of short commands as they can be all typed on the same line. For example, starting from the users home, creating a folder on the Desktop with two folders inside it: cd Desktop; mkdir ...

There's a very wide range of frequencies in a voice (select part of a voice recording in Audacity, then select "Plot Spectrum" from the Analyze menu to see a graph of the frequencies). There will be an enormous amount of overlap between the two voices, making it impossible to separate them...

If I have an instrumental loaded in audacity and I want to record over it, can I listen to that at the same time as listening to my voice in real time without the delay that you get with other USB mics With Audacity 1.3.12 that is possible IF it is supported by the audio hardware ("sound card&...

If you set the recording and playback settings in the Windows Mixer (which can be accessed through the Windows Control Panel http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Mixer_Toolbar_Issues#Using_the_Control_Panel ) then you should only need to set Audacity to use the "Sound Mapper" settings for bot...
