Re: Audacity and Media Player on Windows 7 notebooks

Considering the statements I've seen that Find Clipping was set to a threshold of three in order to reflect the meter trigger level, it could be the meter trigger level isn't even what is intended. The meter trigger on close inspection *does* seem to be working correctly at three consecutive clippe...

Re: Can this file be saved?

I just completed a recording and saved the file. I then renamed it in Windows Explorer. Then when I tried to open it instead of the recording the window displays a folder named e00. When I open that folder another folder displays named d00. When I open that folder 154 files display with names like ...

Re: Recording Stops at 2:35

I really feel like an idiot, but I can not find what I am doing wrong. I have Audacity 1.3.12-beta installed in Ubuntu 10.4. Everything seems to be working properly. I have a ION-USBTT10 turntable and I have it set up so that it records, and I can hear it on play-through just fine. My problem is wh...

Re: Application of effects crashes Audacity 1.3.12-2

"1.3.12-2" is possibly a build of Audacity supplied by your distribution, but it isn't supplied by us and I am not aware of a Change Tempo crash in our releases, which are strictly "source code only" for Linux. If you quit Audacity, restart, Generate a 30 seconds tone and apply a...

Re: File's frozen

So I'm recording this pretty cool music, then it crashes on me. Nothing out of the ordinary, except I can't reopen it. I've tried rebooting and trying to open it from another file. Thing is, Audacity opens up other project files --- just not the one that crashed. I've gotten rid of the recovery cho...

Re: Crash Recovery - Thoroughly Confused

If the recovery was successful, two files would have been written, called: recovery_block1_channel1.wav recovery_block1_channel2.wav Note the underscores (not spaces) between the words. The files would have been written to the folder that you told the recovery utility to look in. If that was the Aud...

Re: Audacity and Media Player on Windows 7 notebooks

So in this case you still lose dynamic range over the theoretical case where the input was 32-bit? I'm not sure that I follow you? I wasn't sure that I followed you about the scaling. I thought perhaps you were suggesting that the samples would be less above +1 where you were recording a 16-bit dev...

Re: Sending users to our documentation

I realise that the comma does not strictly belong to the "Tips" link, but I think it looks terrible being in the non-link colour. Do we really need the exclamation mark at the end of the line? I notice that both Koz and myself avoided both of these things in our mock-ups. I realise that t...

Re: 78rpm EQ Curve Generator

I just wrote a long reply to Gale's comments and hit the 'Preview' button, only to find that I had been logged out (by the forum software?) and my post had evaporated into thin air. Sorry about that. If this happens, hitting back button without logging back in should probably allow you to capture t...

Re: Audacity and Media Player on Windows 7 notebooks

Great tip to double-click the sliders for fine control. ... I would agree this isn't really expected. What else could be done in the space to make it more discoverable isn't so obvious. It would be a bit tiresome to say "double-click for fine adjustment" in the tooltip, I think. Right-cli...
