Re: Empty Void / Endless Abyss (Echo Effect)

Having listened carefully to the original sound sample, I think it is just reverb rather than time stretching - though I think the vocal has also been double tracked at that point and reverb added to the mix. But I agree with you Trebor that "PaulStretch" is a really cool effect. I presume...

Re: Noise Removal removes envelope points

It would make quite a difference to e.g., reverb if the envelope is ignored in the signal passed to the effect. True. The way that I think of it is that the volume "Envelope" is like a "Layer" on top of the sound. Any processing that you do to the sound occurs in the "sound...

Re: Empty Void / Endless Abyss (Echo Effect)

It should be possible to recreate a reverb that is very close to that using G-Verb (available in Audacity 1.3.12). Make a duplicate copy of the word(s) (vocal track only - Select, then Ctrl+D) that you want to add the reverb to, then apply G-Verb to this duplicate. Add a few seconds of silence to th...

Re: distortion sound on win 7 with an external sound card

it gives me a zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz distorted low sound. Try making a recording of that zzzz, then look at it with the "Plot Spectrum" tool (in the Analyze menu). Does it show a series of decreasing spikes at 50Hz, 100Hz, 150Hz, 200Hz.... or 60Hz, 120Hz, 180Hz, 240Hz... After recording the ...
