Re: Is Audacity on Linux a linuxVST 2.4 compatible host?

VST support is largely untested on Linux, as none of the regular testers use VST on Linux.
Let us know how you get on.

Personally, I use mostly Nyquist plug-ins and LV2 plug-ins (Xubuntu 18.04).

If you post a short sample to demonstrate the problem, someone might recognise what the "weird voice" is. See: viewtopic.php?f=49&t=72887

Re: 5.1 mp3

Audacity can only play mono or stereo, but you can "Export" multi-channel audio files. To do so, you need to have a project with multiple tracks, and enable "Advanced Mixing Options" in Preferences. See: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/import_export_preferences.html and https...

Re: Close = Exit now?: I can't close only 1 window at a time anymore

Given that both of you that have this problem are using OpenSuse Tumbleweed, and we have no reports of the problem on other systems, and we are unable to reproduce the problem (on other operating systems), I think you should report this issue to OpenSuse. https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Submitting_...

Re: Audacity want open on Catalina

I can't control+click the bouncing icon in the dock. Reboot your computer so that when it has booted, the icon is not bouncing. Now "control + click" on the icon. Then select "open". You may need to confirm that you want to "run it anyway" (I don't recall exactly what ...

Another way to record for a specified length of time and then stop: "Tracks menu > Add New > Mono Track" Zoom out and select from the length of the song to time = 0 Shift + Record button, or "Shift + R" for adjusting the bass and treble Bass and Treble effect: https://manual.auda...

Re: Pur signal with harmonics

For signal amplitude, it's the same as "voltage". The two equations are:

Code: Select all

A = 20*log10(V2/V1)
and

Code: Select all

V2/V1 = 10^(A/20)

Re: Aliased files considered valuable

I think the "disk space" thing should not be the argument for dismissing this feature. It's not. It's saying that in 21st century, "disk space" is no longer a reasons to retain it. It used to be a good enough reason to retain it, back in the 20th century, but now it's not worth ...

Re: Playback during graphic equalization

I think that's the main difference between typical "home user" software and "professional software" I disagree. You are comparing two different types of audio application, and characterising one as "home user" on the basis that it does not do what a different type of a...
