We are all disappointed that this feature is not currently available, but it's not really anybodies "fault". If you look up the Ubuntu development logs you will see that they tried really hard to get it working reliably, but for technical reasons they were unable to so without causing more...

You've got speakers that go down below 20 Hz? If there's a problem with sub-sonic rumble I would start rolling off a lot higher than 20 Hz.

However if extreme amounts of amplification are used (in excess of 50 dB) then with 16 bit audio the effect is clearly audible. As a...

["Unfortunately, this effect can only be applied to Mono sounds files. Stereo files will need to be reduced to Mono before this effect can be utilized."] In Audacity 1.3.4 "Truncate Silence" works on mono or stereo files. The "Maximum Silence Duration" setting is the m...

You need to have some audio selected before effects are available. Click and drag your mouse across the track to select a portion, or click on the track information box (where it says the sample rate and bit format for the track) to select the whole track, or Ctrl+A to select all tracks.

If you look in the Realtek Mixer settings (see the loudspeaker icon in the bottom right corner of your screen near the clock) there are separate settings for "Line in" Play level and "Line in" Record level. The "Play level" is obviously OK, but the Record level is too h...
