I am able to overload the mixer now ... I don't actually know which knobs being turned achieved this, There's a knob which on the Behringer web-site photograph is marked "Trim". In the manual the same knob is marked "Gain". (they obviously changed the label at some point). This ...

It's just a variable. It could have been anything but I frequently use "s-in" (sound-in) as the name of the variable in a function that will hold the sound to be processed (the "input sound").

I have often found that the standard Fade-In/Out effects do not produce the fade "shape" that I want. Sometimes I want to make a "partial" fade (for example, fade out to half volume). Both of these can be achieved using the Envelope tool, but it can be fiddly, time consuming and ...

Thanks to bgravato for putting me onto this. The problem with patching Audacity's inputs and outputs when using Jack is that Audacity's input output ports (PortAudio) are only present while Audacity is in Playback/Record mode. As soon as you press "Stop", the ports disappear. Then when Aud...

Should be: 122/6533 = 0.018674422 = 1.867442216%

("original length" - "target length")/"target length"

You can have hours of fun using Nyquist to create these type of effects. Essentially the effect that you are wanting to produce is that of a "non-linear amplifier". Nyquist is a simple but powerful scripting language that is built into Audacity. You can either run Nyquist commands from the...

Excellent advice Swatcher, and yes you can put pictures directly into posts. There are two ways of doing that: 1) If the picture already exists on the Internet you can use the "Img" button when you are writing the post and put the URL (web address) of the picture between the "Img tags...
