Re: How to improve audio quality of spoken word recording for transcription purposes

The human mind has an incredible ability to recognise spoken words. If the sound quality is so bad that you can't make out the words, then it is likely to be too far gone to make significant improvements (forget about the CSI tricks, that's fiction). One thing that may help a little, is to filter ou...

Re: Invalid Sampling Rate (Trust GXT 252)

Moreover, when audacity changes to this exterior mic, only "mono" is available in the display line right to the name of the mic. Most microphones are mono. Is the Trust GXT 252 Emita microphone a stereo mic? Have you checked to see what "Audio Device Info" says about the mic? ht...

Re: Finding timeshift via maximum correlation between two tracks

Is there a plugin that permits me to select two tracks that then provides the time shift between them that brings them into maximum correlation? I've never seen one that can do that. It would be very difficult to write such a plug-in, as Nyquist plug-ins access the audio one track at a time. I'm gu...

Re: Remote recording due to the blasted Coronavirus??

Personally, I'm looking at using something like a Behringer UCG102 USB Guitar Link Be sure to buy a genuine one (buy from a reputable vendor). There have been cheap copies sold (mostly via ebay) that frequently have problems. Even the genuine ones are pretty inexpensive. I'd really appreciate any v...

Fade-ins and fade-outs (or cross-fades) will also help to make smooth cuts & spices.
Very quick and easy to do with the "Crossfade Clips" effect: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/cro ... clips.html

Re: No Audio Int Win10

The headphones are plugged into the jack outlet in the laptop. As I say, they work fine for everything else. The speakers are also bypassed for recordings As for the mike, it's a CAD U37, run into the USB port. And yes, on playback I do have a fluctuating green level bar, yes. See this FAQ: Why hav...

Re: Arithmetic track mix operations like: X = Y (+-*/) Z

Nyquist can only access one track at a time, so the easiest way to experiment with this is to create a stereo track with sound "Y" in one channel and sound "Z" in the other (see: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/splitting_and_joining_stereo_tracks.html) You can then run your e...
