Re: Nyquist Wish List - Nyquist Prompt Enhancement

Could this be imporoved or can a single Prompt ever work both with a selection and without one? Yes, it can be (and has been) improved (see previous post). No it can't work with existing audio within a selection - the "s" global (which passes the audio from the track to Nyquist) is only a...

Re: Help please how do I achieve (or get) this vst effect?!

Do you mean the vocal in the chorus that goes really "wide" (in a stereo sense)? That's achieved by double tracking (recording the vocal several times) with some copies panned hard to the left and the others panned hard to the right. A similar effect can be achieved with a single recording...

Re: Files keep saving as .AM

The solution is to avoid using special characters in the file name. Stick to letters (a to z, A to Z), numbers (0 to 9), space, hyphen (-) and underscore (_).]Avoid using slashes, parentheses, commas, dots and other strange characters. Your specific problem is probably that you have a dot in the name.

Re: click track error

There is a recurring problem with Audacity using the correct decimal separator for European languages. I presume that the correct decimal separator for your language is a comma. The workaround is to use a "full stop" (dot/period) instead of a comma as a decimal separator. This will affect ...

Re: How do I get USB mic working with Realtek?

USB microphones completely bypass the internal sound card - this is one of the main reasons that they can give better recording quality. Is there any way for me to use my USB mic and Stereo Mix at the same time? No. does Audacity allow me to record my voice from G track with the backing track from m...

Re: Toolbars

albeit that all my settings have been set to two channel stereo? 1) You need to be set to stereo in Audacity "Edit menu > Preferences > Devices". 2) You also need to be set to stereo for the recording device that you are using in the Windows Control Panel http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki...

Re: backslashes and double-quotes in text input widgets

I've got it built now and done some testing - not found any problems so far, it looks very good. With this improvement I thought it worth updating the Nyquist Generate Prompt so that it will support multiple expressions (it didn't seem worth the effort previously because of the other limitations tha...
