Re: [Fedora23] audacity hang when startup

I found the solution: Gnome2 accessibility is enabled and this requires libgail-gnome which is not available anymore :( This occurs even if audacity is compiled with wxGTK3. To disable gnome2 accessibility, use the command: gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/interface/accessibility --type bool false ...

Re: Real-time EQ preview (+ non-destructive EQ adjustment)

I don't know if this addresses all the things you mentioned but I use Reapers "real eq" plug in that is available for us. It does not do a "preview" but simply runs on the selected track for as long as you like while adjusting it. Of course you still have to "apply" it...

Re: Lost source files when attempting a batch chain

Hello. Please tell us what version of Audacity you are using (all three numbers, see the pink panel at the top of the page). The exported files should be in a "cleaned" folder inside the folder the original files came from. The cleaned folder should be created as soon as Audacity starts to...

Re: Can't select individual Audio Samples

You are snapping selections to milliseconds. Turn Snap To off in Selection Toolbar.

Re: Chains lists are unordered

Mac does not have that problem either.

Audacity 2.1.1 on Ubuntu 14.04 behaves the same. It could be a bug in wxGTK. Clearly when you add an item in that list, some sorting logic is applied (below the built in MP3 Conversion Chain). But I can't figure what the logic is.

Re: Transferring cell phone voice messages to laptop

Also for future, if you are in the USA then you can install the GoogleVoice Androd app and set that up to handle your voicemail. Then you can save your voicemails from your web browser. http://forums.androidcentral.com/verizo ... mails.html.

Re: Show CLOCK_TIME above graph, not STOPWATCH_Time?

Is it possible to add an offset to this time to show actual CLOCK time? No, Audacity does not have that feature (and I've not seen it on any other general purpose audio editor either). I currently parse the Phone generated ending time (when file was written to disk) and use Exiftool to get the dura...

Re: Recording duration on Audacity shorter than the original

Of course an optical connection would theoretically be preferable. I think DAT machines often default to 48000 Hz (the highest rate supported by DAT) so this is why optical connections often default to 48000 Hz. Assuming the pitch was also faster than you intended, you could record with the optical ...

Re: OS Sierra - Compatible with Audacity?

I meant, what the problems were that you encountered in Audacity until later El Capitan. For example, USB audio was problematic in early El Capitan, but that did not only affect Audacity. Audacity 2.1.2 is not flawless on any version of macOS. A lot of bugs were fixed in 2.1.2 but new ones came in b...

Re: audacity 2.1.2 - clipping bar not working

The reason I am recording at 16bit is because I was told that it was not required to go any higher for Vinyl to digital format. And that in fact 16bit was the best in terms of quality, and file size. There is good reason though to leave Audacity's Default Sample Format at 32-bit float. Audacity cap...
