Re: how to isolate instrument from song?

I would like an app, no matter how crude, to remove lead guitar parts for the creation of backing tracks to play along with. Can anyone help? No. You have a track that has been mixed together like using milk and egg and tomato sauce for an omelette, not three discrete layers that are stuck to each ...

Re: How to select the last 5 seconds of a track?

if there were a proper function to fade out the end of the track by x seconds, I could batch process all my files automatically and wouldn’t have to open a single one! Being able to run effects in Chains on other than the whole selection is yet another feature request. However I think there is a so...

Re: How to select the last 5 seconds of a track?

Or when at the end, you can overtype the seconds field in the Selection Start box, decrementing the required number of seconds. Thanks for that, but the “Selection start” box is rounded to the nearest second, so you can’t use it to move the cursor by a precise amount as it will jump to the nearest ...

Re: Loss of Data

I believe that I ran out of memory. As it was pointing to the wrong drive. If you have checked "Audio Cache" (Play and/or record using RAM)" in Directories Preferences, I suggest you uncheck it. You cannot recover any recording written to RAM if that recording crashes. Record to a fa...

Re: File Export to WAV with Time Track 30x slower than witho

Time Track does resampling. If you change the project rate to something else, export will also be slower. Re-sampling what? ...and why? How else does it change the pitch and length while keeping the same sample rate? I don't think I'm wrong. The Time Track code includes Resample.h. Change the "...

I installed the debug file from synaptic, and tried to run dbg audacity in the terminal, but I don't see the audacity gui. Am I doing something wrong?
I think you need to type "gdb audacity":

Code: Select all

$ gdb audacity
and then type "run"

Code: Select all

$ (gdb) run

Re: Recording device USB Audio controll

In checking "sound " on my desk top I didn't see anything that had to do with recording using the USB. Then please read the link already provided http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/USB_turntables#trouble . You have to go through exactly the same routine for a USB cassette player as a USB t...

Re: isochronic tone generator plugin base tone

I have just installed isochronic modulator plugin. It modifies an existing tone to make an isochronic tone. My question is what tone frequency do I generate as the base tone for the plugin to modulate? Most people use between 100 Hz and 500 Hz I believe but to clarify: The plug-in author and Audaci...

Re: "FFmpeg_v0.6.2_for_Audacity_on_Windows.exe"

I am 72 years of age, female, and my name is Lucy (like in Ricky Ricardo). Enough said. I have downloaded and installed Audacity 2.x on my Windows XP desktop. I have also downloaded the LAME and FFmpeg files. My problem: When I try to install the FFmpeg file, I receive a message the file is corrupt...

Re: PAUSE icon appears everywhere at screen instead of other

The issue is noted here: http://bugzilla.audacityteam.org/show_bug.cgi?id=505 but we don't have any answer to it. Are you on Windows XP? Mousing over the icons may make the correct button appear. If not, use the keyboard shortcut alternatives for the buttons instead. For example, R to record, F2 for...
