Re: warning after opening audacity

Try updating to Audacity 1.3.10 (available here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php? ... tly_Builds ). I think this will open the project correctly without the error message.

Re: Export 8 bit resolution WAV files.

Set the Project rate to 22kHz (do you mean 22050 ?) in the Project Rate box (lower left corner of main Audacity window).

Re: mp3 export issue

I am using version 1.3.9. That threw me for a moment - you have posted in the 1.2 part of the forum. There is an issue in Audacity 1.3.8 and 1.3.9 that may be the problem, but another possibility is that your project includes audio files that are external to the project and these files are no longe...

Re: Retro bass drum compression

It sounds super-compressed and is somehow eclipsing out other sounds. That's exactly right. The dynamic compression has been applied to a mix of bass drum and other sounds at the same time. Because the bass drum had a high peak level, the compression kicks in on the bass beats and squashes the othe...

Re: Windows 7

It largely depends on your sound card drivers. There are some issues that the developers are currently working on. All being well Audacity 2.0 should be reasonably OK on Windows 7. If you want to try the current version (you may be lucky) try the latest Nightly build from here: http://wiki.audacityt...

Re: Synth plugins?

Here's a voice with fm modulation using the script from my previous post. The voice is modulated with a low frequency "chirp" (0.4 Hz to 40 Hz, 1.0 to 0.1 amplitude).
Weird :shock: :D

Re: Synth plugins?

Here's a Nyquist script to do frequency modulation - it's a bit more complicated than the AM script, but you use it in exactly the same way. (defun variable-resample (mod snd) (let ((p1 (log 2.0)) ratio map) (setf ratio (s-exp (mult mod p1))) ; pitch ratio (setf map (integrate ratio)) ; map from rea...
