Re: sound level settings

Short MP3s (maximum size 1 MB) can be uploaded directly to the forum.
When you start writing a message, look below the compose window and there is an "Upload Attachment" tab.
Images in png, gif and jpeg format can be uploaded in the same way.
An MP3 would be more useful than an image.

Re: Finding average RMS volume

Could it be as simple as the average of the rectified waveform? That's sort of what the RMS measure is. It's interesting that you rated T1, T2, T3 at 3, 4, 2 in each case, even though the amplitudes are considerably different in the first sequence to their amplitudes in the second (and third) seque...

Re: Audacity interface naming question.

@ Steve - does your correspondent understand that the Thing has more controls than the sliders? My correspondent immediately recognised the sliders and the solo and mute buttons as controls. They did not immediately recognise the drop-down menu as a control. Had it not been for recent discussions I...

Re: Audacity Beta 1.3.12 Normalizing Mp3s To loudest Best Le

For plug-ins to show up in Audacity 1.3.12 you need to put the plug-in into the Audacity Beta Unicode Plugin Folder.
Audacity needs to be restarted before the new plug-ins will show up.
Chris's compressor will be listed as "Compress dynamics..." in the Effect menu.

Re: Issue with Chris's compressor

Thanks for the information about your screen reader. I'll follow this up and see if anything can be done. I've never attached a file to a post on these forums before, so when and if I figure it out, I'll post something. Edit - you posted while I was typing. Using the standard Audacity compressor, tr...

Re: audacity sometimes won't start when devices change

I'm using 2.8.11.0 from the Ubuntu repository.
I think 2.8.10 should also be fine.

Re: Audacity 1.3 times out after several hours

are u saying to have the timer rec function rec my 8 hr piece in nice tidy 1hr segments (will it do that) ? No. I'm saying that if you want to record a 45 minute piece that starts at 4 AM you do not have to start Audacity recording when you go to bed and leave it running overnight. You can set the ...

Re: unnecessary echo recorded using StereoMix

Having gone through all of the other options, it does indeed sound like it is probably a driver problem. Unfortunately the trend with new drivers on Windows is for disabling Stereo Mix entirely, so it is unlikely that a new driver will be released that offers a solution to the problem. For some type...
