If that WAV file was an example of the work you're trying to compress to MP3, then that will be a very difficult battle. If you found a lame that works, it may have been by accident. Worse, the older lame may be considered broken and the newer one is fixed. I did think of that, but if the old versi...

I agree, the 128kbps CBR setting sounds hollow with a wobbly echo. If you export as MP3 with the "Standard" pre-set it sounds fine, but I understand that you would like to get sound quality the same as you did with an earlier version at the same bit rate as you used previously (without hav...

I'm happy with the effect but have now made a minor update. Here's a new version (version 2.2) Changes since version 2.1 Help file updated to fit 800 x 600 screen. Help File also included as text file in ZIP package. Minor changes to GUI. Features in Noise Gate 2.2 Gated audio can be reduced in the ...

Did it make any difference?

I tried to find that on Google but no dice. Who's the manufacturer? can you post a link to their web site.

What operating system are you using? (Vista? Win XP, Ubuntu 10.04...?)

Have you tried rebooting your computer?

sounds like the old version was better To avoid any confusion, that is not what I am saying. shouldn't the user be able to set the loudness due to compression It is more usual to use something before offering feedback about it. The amount of compression can be set using the "Compress Ratio&quo...

The new GUI certainly looks less intimidating. Using the default settings, this new version appears to produce more compression (the result is "louder") than the previous version. When tested on simple generated tones, the raised parts show noticeable ripple in amplitude (which did not hap...

I then decided to try and be smart and find a way of comparing the same track pulled into Audacity in two different ways and compare their sound levels. That way I might be able to tell by how much the Behringer device has reduced the recording gain during conversion. To this end I ran the phono le...

What if my original recording has an occasional clip but it is not audible? If it's a 16 bit recording, then that would be a good candidate for using the "Clip Fix" effect. If it's a 24 bit recording, then it depends if it's just clipped (top/bottom chopped off) or if it has "polarit...

My point was that medium wave was not CD quality specifically because the transmission doesn't support it. It's not that the sparkling quality was somehow suppressed or attenuated. It's simply not there. There's nothing to enhance or boost in post production. The situation is actually made much wor...
