Re: Cannot record except from microphone

The bit that you need to configure is the recording source that Windows is using. You can set that in the Windows Control Panel. Note that to record from the internet you need to set the recording source to "Stereo Mix", but an increasing number of modern machines have that option disabled...

Re: New Vinyl Getting Skips

Sound/Recording/Microphone/Properties/Advanced I presume that's a Windows thing? Settings in the Windows Control Panel? As Koz is forever saying, Audacity is a slave to the sound system of the computer that it is running on. If you configure the computer sound system to 8 bit 1100 Hz mono, then tha...

Yes, but the "Spectrum View" in the track drop down menu can show a continuous spectrum for the entire track.

Also, the sound activated recording could be useful.

Re: how can I do these exercises?

use a translator online and I copied a line more Ah, that explains it :D Happy to help, but there are many ways to approach this problem. I don't know what your objective is, so it's difficult to know which way is best for you. You want to write code to do this? You want to do this one step at a ti...

Re: Vocalization analysis

You can do some basic frequency analysis in Audacity using "Analyze menu > Plot Spectrum". This feature is much improved in the current 1.3 version of Audacity. Audacity also has partial support for VAMP, plug-ins, though I have not used these. http://vamp-plugins.org/ For more advanced sc...

Re: Metadata for WAVE files?

WinAmp can convert from WAV to MP3 (and other format conversions). I use it for ripping CDs when I want track data from Gracenote and it writes it directly into the id data and converts to FLAC with one simple button press.

Re: Repair vs. Silence or Draw Tool

A classic bézier curve from drawing programs and font technology is perhaps not appropriate for audio? It depends what you are doing. I use Bézier curves in my "custom fade" plug-in and they work great. The word bezier shouldn't be flagged as a spelling error. Should be upper case "B...

<tag name="Full Name" value="So Good&#x0018;"/>
If you just delete that line and save, it should work. (don't forget the back-up as Koz has recommended)
