How are you not seeing this?

We have seen it.
Thank you.

But when I capture audio from my cassette deck through an EasyDay DC60 Video Capture Adapter, the audio tracks display incorrectly. You know how a waveform normally weaves back and forth between positive values and negative values (up and down from the 0.0 center line). Instead of the waveform goin...

With these in mind, would it be OK if I change the title of this thread to something like.."Questions & ideas about Spectral editing"? I'd suggest that you do a bit more digging into the code, try writing some Nyquist code that uses the "spectral" selection, then start a new...

I had that idea in mind too, but I suck at Nyquist, so I tried something that I think I know slightly better. Sure, no problem. A nice aspect of Nyquist is that bits of code like this can easily be converted into plug-ins (like the effects below the dividing line in the Effect menu). Some informati...

What would the minimum fade times be to avoid a click? The longer the transition, the quieter the transition will be, but obviously you would usually want to keep it as short as possible. In effect, the transition is like a low frequency, low amplitude pulse. The longer the fade, the lower the freq...

none of my Effects show up on my Effects list. No effects at all? Not even the built-in effects such as "Amplify", "Fade In", "Fade Out"...? Check in "Preferences > Effects" and ensure that all available effect types are enabled, as shown here: https://manual...

The "smearing" is due to a short crossfade at the start and end of the selection.
The crossfade is created automatically by the effect so as to avoid creating an audible click at the start / end of the filtered section.

Thanks, I downloaded the image from the direct link and uploaded the image into your first post so that it will show for everyone.

I'm referring to the vertical tails shown in my original post

Which "original post"? There are no pictures in this forum topic.

If I do "Effects" and "Amplifie", it takes a lot longer than "Effects" and "Normalize". That's surprising. For me, Normalize takes longer than Amplify, which is what I would expect because (by default) Normalize does DC offset correction as well as amplifying...
