Re: Nyquist Plugin Modification Needed for SilenceMarker.ny

Would it be better if the default was zero, which means "off"? I would thing definitely yes - default = 0 I suggest the wording of the field shouldn't include either "track" or "sound" (the latter would be confusing given we're detecting "silence"). How about...

Re: More versatile Nyquist fade/amplify effect

I think a "Nyquist" or "Developing Audacity Plug-ins" board in the "Programming and Development" section would be useful. Regarding "Work flow" Initial ideas could start anywhere on the forum, but if the ideas became discussions about Nyquist code or were deve...

Re: Help, I'm trapped in a deep well!

I don't think that there's much you can do other than re-recording because the noise level is so high and the sound quality is so low. Here's a brief "before/after processing" sample that has had a touch of "Noise Removal" (Audacity 1.3.12) and using "Equalization" has ...

Re: file size and sample rate ans size

In Audacity 1.2 the export format is set in Preferences (which makes it somewhat awkward to see or change). In Audacity 1.3.12 (recommended) the export format is selected in the Export dialogue screen which will be much more convenient for your purposes. The export format settings for uncompressed f...

Re: best way to get a subtle volume boost from a wav track

It depends on what your track is like. Dynamic compression reduces the difference between the loud bits and the quieter bits so that the quieter bits can be louder. It works over a relatively long (but adjustable) time period and is well suited for "evening out" changes in volume. If your ...

Re: Nyquist Plugin Modification Needed for SilenceMarker.ny

I like the idea of "minimum track length", a useful addition. A couple of points: Since you are splitting the track but not removing any silence between tracks, you do not need to use region labels. Simply using "point" labels before the start of the sound will do the same job. T...
