Re: Files Won't Open

I assume that you know that an Audacity Project has a file and a folder?

Please attach one of the problem project files to your reply (see: viewtopic.php?f=49&t=64936)

Re: using audactiy for group recording in this time of lockdown

1) Record a song while playing the song from the interned. (Check! That was easy.) 2) Add a click track. 3) Have the drummer play along with recording. 4) Add Bass and guitar to click and drum part without the original recording... It might be easiest to skip step 2, and let everyone use the song f...

Re: Bringing 1 track in from a 2nd audacity project.

Is there an easy way to bring 1 track from another audacity project file into the current loaded audacity project? The easiest and safest way is to export the track as a WAV file, then it can be Imported into other projects. WAV format is preferable to MP3 because MP3 encoding irreversibly reduces ...

Re: getting "please select a time within a clip" error message while using punch and roll.

Click on the track at the point where you want the punch & roll recording to start (for punch & roll, it must be within an existing track waveform).

Re: pulsation rates for specific frequencies

You could do that "manually" with the "Envelope Tool": https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/envelope_tool.html

Re: Audacity can not load ANY aup file

Sorry, I'm still no wiser as to what the problem may be. Something you could try is launching Audacity from the command line, and passing a file name as an argument. I'd suggest that you use the project that you posted earlier as I've confirmed that it opens correctly. Extract that project into a co...

Re: Where is 'Replay Gain' in V. 2.3.2

The "real" ReplayGain is built into some media players (for example "Foobar2000" https://www.foobar2000.org/) Media players from Apple (such as iTunes and iPads) have a similar feature called "Sound Check". Some years ago I wrote a kind of "normalizing" plug-i...

Re: Exporting Audio Level Values

Audacity visualizes a loaded audio track as a wave form, i.e. level values (y axe) along time (x axe). Can these values be exported, e.g. in a file? Short answer: Yes. You can write a Nyquist script to export the amplitude values. Longer answer: As you zoom in on a track, you will see the amplitude...
