Re: few basic problems

(allpass2 s (+ f (lfo fl))) I think that's probably the wrong sort of filter to use for a wah effect as it passes all frequencies equally. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All-pass_filter Also, the "hz" parameter must be a FLONUM (floating point number) and not a sound, so you can't use an os...

Some sound cards on some machines allow access to their controls by other programs (such as Audacity). For other sound cards or computers acce...

Re: cbp code::blocks project file for audacity

As far as I'm aware there isn't a cbp file. I don't think that any of the developers use code::blocks

Re: reconciling different sample rates

Use Audacity 1.3.12. The old 1.2.6 version cannot handle multiple sample rates in the same track and has some other quirks regarding mixed sample rates that I don't remember off hand. If you want your final exported project to be at 44100 or 48000 Hz sample rate, import one of the files and check in...

Re: Stereo recording windows 7

Go into the Windows Control Panel and check that the recording device that you are using is set to stereo (Windows 7 often defaults to mono).

Re: Help splitting several voices from a sound.

Frequency Splitting can be done with the Equalizer tool. Possibly easier to do using the High-pass filter and Low-pass filter. Make a duplicate copy of a track (select the track then press Ctrl+D) Apply a high-pass filter to one copy and a low-pass filter to the other. For a sharp cross-over, use a...

Re: Audacity interface naming question.

Much too radical at the moment. The entire interface would have to be re-done. Hmmm - yes :twisted: But this is fantasy at the moment. :cry: Simply rounding the corners of the drop-down menu, mute, solo and collapse buttons (without the shading) would help them stand out as buttons IMO. Yes, I thin...
