Re: Noise removal crashes Audacity

In the project file AUP you submitted, there are no separate clips in any of the tracks (as I said). The screenshot you submitted shows no black vertical lines. As explained, Noise Removal would produce one split line at the right of the processed selection if you dragged the selection from the star...

Re: Import stopped working

Can you suggest further steps to repair this issue? You don't seem to have permission to create the temporary _data folder in C:UsersSNOCAppDataLocalTempaudacity_temp . That's what you need to fix. Are you SNOC? If not, log in to Windows either as SNOC or as an administrator. If you still cannot wr...

Re: Does normalizing require upconverting to preserve qualit

You mean, a checkbox that when enabled, over-rides the High-Quality dither Preference being "on"? No, I mean (as discussed on -devel) that processed audio is always returned to tracks in 32 bit float format (so as to avoid needless and possibly damaging format conversions), and that dithe...

Re: Wave image small, sound inaudible

I am recording LPs from a Crosley turntable. First one sounded fine and the wave image was broad, -1 to +1. After that, using several different records, I saw only a barely perceptible wave above and below the 0 line. The sound was inaudibleI unless I cranked up the dbs, then the hiss etc. was unbe...

Re: Comments field in Metadata Editor

On all versions of Windows, Audacity's Metadata Editor saves information entered in the 'Comments' box under the field names COMMENTS for FLAC files and COMMENT for MP3s. None of the other software I use (foobar2000, Mp3tag, Traktor) recognise the COMMENTS field in the FLAC file; they all require t...

Re: Deleting silence labels

I am new to Audacity and I am having a problem separating a file into tracks. I have captured one side of a vinyl album into 1 file - about 20 minutes. There are 7 songs in the file. When I use the Analyze - Silence finder to separate the tracks, I get 10 markers. I would like to get rid of some of...

Re: Labels wish-list

That would be very intuitive but would mean that you could no longer select the whole label track that way. I don't think that is a big loss since you can do that by clicking on the label track control panel. You could also click in any gap between labels, or after the last label, so there are a fe...

Re: Does normalizing require upconverting to preserve qualit

I wish that Audacity would do the "right thing" automatically and so save users from this confusion and simply provides an option in the Export dialogue to provide dither choices on Export. You mean, a checkbox that when enabled, over-rides the High-Quality dither Preference being "o...

Re: Integration with Ableton Live

Yes, I mean to overwrite without a prompt and surely the principle is the same whether you're working on individual or multiple clips? Suppose you want to mix two samples (from different directories) into one and overwrite one of those samples. So I would vote for the former, more simply understood...

Re: Noise removal crashes Audacity

Split lines separate individual clips inside tracks, see http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/audacity_tracks_and_clips.html . Are you using Edit > Clip Boundaries > Split (COMMAND + I) - I as in first person singular - in the problem project? Is the attached the problem project? There are nine ster...
