Re: Not Getting Audacity to Record

Please post to the correct forum for your version of Audacity - you posted to 1.2 Forum for Windows, moved here to 1.3 for Windows. What are you trying to record - output of the PA? If you plug headphones into the PA output do you hear anything? Is the Audacity Mixer Toolbar input selector set to th...

Re: Submit your EQ Curves

If we used a newline every 50 characters, how many lines could we fit on an 800 X 600 screen? On my system, 27 lines including empty lines separating paragraphs, but to allow for font variations and memorabilty, shall we settle on forced newlines at 50 characters, and 25 lines? It looks as if the r...

Re: Annoying problem when changing playback spead

Change Speed works by ''resampling'' the audio, affecting its frequency' content. For example, the more you slow down the audio, the more all its frequencies will be reduced, making the audio sound "duller". I can see what you're getting at, and this is definitely better IMO, but I'm not ...

Re: clock tiles for sync-lock visually confusing

And I do hope they get around, before 2.0 release, to fixing the problem that was recently identified of Sync-Lock remaining on for the next project if turned on in the current one. Can you explain a bit more why this is a problem, Peter? If as a power user I had turned Sync-Lock on, I think I woul...

Re: Session Recordings

So if given a choice between exporting to a time stamped file, or maybe just having a time stamp button that shows not just how far you are into a track but what time it was recorded, the a time stamp button that just added the real time would be just as useful... There are two ways to do it that w...

Re: clock tiles for sync-lock visually confusing

I'd also like to see some indication that Sync-lock is enabled in the ordinary selection shading I don't mind the "regular" shading in the "primary" selection. When selecting a region the sync-lock-selection tiling (when improved) will adequately indicate that the tracks are syn...

Propagating Forum discussions to "decision-makers"

From: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=42068#p107556 The Development Team generally does not read this forum, rarely looks at the wiki, and with a few exceptions do not read the Quality mailing list. That seems to leave only the -devel mailing list but the Developers get very a...

Re: Annoying problem when changing playback spead

Thanks for the exposition, Steve. I just made it a little clearer in your message that "Set Rate" changes the track length, if that's OK with you. From the manual For example, the more you slow down the audio, the more of the higher frequencies will be removed, making the audio sound "...

Re: six pages of spam - cant find real messages

If ppl get blocked... well... they can't post... so don't expect them to be able to complain about it... Well, a few do because they write to [email protected] or find my address somewhere, but those are only about one every two months. Perhaps we should test out the theory and turn it off for a test perio...
