Re: high sounds flattened out?

You can most probably do this in Audacity, but I'm not sure exactly what result you are wanting to achieve. Do you want to just reduce the high frequencies (you can do that using the Equalizer effect) or do you want to keep the high frequencies, but prevent loud high frequencies (a bit more tricky b...

Channel Mixer

This plug-in allows the left and right channels of stereo tracks to be mixed and distributed between the channels of a stereo track. Examples: 1) Mix left and right channels in equal proportion to produce a 2 channel mono track. 2) Invert left or right channel independently of the other. 3) Mix each...

Re: Open/Add a file to an existing project

You should be able to drag and drop audio files into an existing, open Audacity project, provided that the file is in a supported format. Audio files can also be imported into Audacity 1.3.x using "File menu > Import > Audio". If Importing via the File menu does not work, Audacity will pro...

Re: q: audacity and ladspa plugins on windows

There's a good chance that you will get a reply from the feedback e-mail, but if you don't it may be worth sending a message directly to the developers mailing list.

Re: recording from a music instrument

NOT into the USB port (except in a couple of very specific cases). Electronic keyboards these days often have a USB connection for sending MIDI data to a computer - MIDI is not "audio" and cannot be recorded in Audacity. To record an electronic keyboard in Audacity you need to use a suitab...

Re: Export with period in filename flags warning

why does Audacity complain about it? Because Audacity does not know if you want to save the file as "test.me" or as "test.me.flac" or as "test.me.<something else>" In certain situations people will want to use a non-standard file extension and Audacity allows you to do...

Re: Labels from Text File

I'm not at all sure how to get a list of labels that currently exist. Now for the bad news - you can't do that in Audacity-Nyquist as the only data to be sent to Nyquist from Audacity is the audio data (Labels are not accessible to Nyquist). Probably the closest that you could get would be to manua...

Re: listening while recording

You also need to set your Audacity Recording Preferences to enable "Sooftware Playthrough" No, probably not. Switching on Software Playthrough is likely to open up additional signal paths that will probably cause echoes or feedback. The BIC T-05M stereo cassette deck is NOT a USB machine,...

Re: How to disable "update spectrogram"

Don't use the Spectrogram view, by default tracks should be on the "Waveform" view. To change the track view, click on the name of the track and select from the drop down menu, To avoid the waveform view being refreshed during playback, either zoom out to show the entire waveform before yo...
