Re: How to auto-amplify in chain

And you can't run nyquist command on chains either... There's also a feature request for that. You can see here the current list of feature requests for the chains command: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=Feature_Requests#Improvements_to_the_.22Chains.22_.28batch_processing.29_feature W...

Re: ¿Como acortar un archivo mp3 rápidamente?

Audacity no trabaja directamente con mp3, lo descifra y recodifica de nuevo y la calidad se degrada.
Si lo que deseas es dividir y cortar, recomendo utilizar otro programa como por ejemplo Mp3Splt: http://mp3splt.sourceforge.net/mp3splt_page/home.php

Re: Cannot use Lexicon Alpha recording hardware?

Thanks for the detailed info.

I'm not a windows user, so I'm not the right guy to help you on this. I'm moving this thread to the Windows forum, hopefully one of the windows elders will provide you better advices soon.

Re: Can't install audacity on Linux mint

Isn't there a pre-compiled package of audacity for linux mint?

You can probably get the required dev packages from the distro's repositories.

Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu/Debian, so, even if you don't have a pre-built package of audacity from mint, you may try to install one from ubuntu/debian.

Re: Cannot use Lexicon Alpha recording hardware?

What's your operating system? Which Audacity version? How do you have it all connected? Which sample rate are you using? Try 44.100 Hz and 48.000 Hz, at least one of those should work. What have you choosen as the Host and the Recording Device in Audacity's Preferences -> Devices?

Re: How to overlap .mp3 files

This has nothing to do with recording equipment so I moved it to the Audio Processing forum. To "link" both songs in a smoother way you can fade one out while you fade the other in. You can either use the Fade In/Fade Out effects or the envelope tool for this. Whether this will sound better or not w...

Re: Audacity tries playback to wrong device while recording

@Tingo, I'll pass on your address to the OSS user. There will be more interest in a "bug report" if other OSS users can confirm your finding that software playthrough does not work for USB devices. Very few people use OSS now, so there are almost no reports about it. I can try to test that on Linux...

Re: Can Audacity record and export with these specific setti

If you're going to record (capture) the audio proceed like steve said. If you already have an audio file that you just want to convert then proceed like this: - import the file into audacity (File menu -> Import -> Audio) - if it's stereo track convert to mono (Tracks menu -> Stereo Track to Mono) -...

Re: Hard limiter/Amplify?

If you want to increase the overall loudness then you should use dynamic compression. You can either use the audacity's built-in compressor or download chris' compressor: http://pdf23ds.net/software/dynamic-compressor/ If you search this forum for dynamic compression or compressor you should find a ...
