Audacity Forum

I only get one shot at recording. If I quit Audacity and start a new project, it still won't work. If I change inputs (I have 1 pair analog, and 3 pair digital with the Gina) each input will work once. I have also tried different bit rates with no luck. Matching sample rates is one of the possible ...

Thanks, Steve. And if anyone just wanted to trim the start and end by a particular amount irrespective of how quiet it was, you can just enter Steve's simpler code in Nyquist Prompt: (setq start 0.5) (setq end 2.5) (multichan-expand #'extract-abs start (- (get-duration 1) end)(cue s)) ...only run th...

I'm in the same time zone as Steve, just warped hours of waking/working. There aren't a lot of options remaining, but has anything else relevant changed at the same time you moved to 1.3.13, such as moving to a new Vista Service Pack, changing the sound device or updating its drivers? First thing I ...

I would like to provide the file but it is a paradox. I can't save the file in Audacity because of the error. Thanks for helping. We just need the file exactly as you imported it into Audacity in the first place. If it is larger than 1 MB, you can upload it to a free file transfer service like: htt...

You will need to install Audacity 1.3.13 Beta and the optional FFmpeg library to import WMA files (or, convert them to WAV so 1.2 can open them). This assumes Windows Media Player has not protected the files so that only it can play them. If that's the case, you'll have to record them into Audacity ...

Not tried it but a quick search shows this might do the job. BUT the batch processing version is not free: http://www.mptrim.com Even with a batch feature that allowed selections you'll be better off with a tool like MPTrim than Audacity anyway, because MPTrim won't re-encode the MP3, but Audacity ...

I tried reproducing the problem but it is not happening now. Here is what I did see: 1) As you mentioned, if I mute a track and use Export Multiple, Audacity reports that the track is saved successfully. The file size is 44 bytes so obviously no real music was saved. I don't think this is acceptabl...

Works after clearing metadata, i just don't quite get what's wrong with this: starting from major_brand: mp42 Lavf52.94.0 0 isommp42 2011-02-14 14:15:30 If Pressing "Clear" in Metadata Editor solved the problem, is it possible to attach (maximum 1 MB) or post a link to an audio file that ...

My system is running Windows 7 (64-bit). I was trying to save several WAV files using "Export Multiple" and a few of them were destroyed during this operation. Audacity reported that all files were saved successfully but actually truncated the lost files to a size of less than 1000 bytes....

Audacity makes no changes whatever to system files that requires a reboot to overwrite them.
