Re: Fix for a violin recording from an echo-y church hall?

The posts will say to take as Noise Profile the reverb after a loud note.

You can also try Isolate Centre in Vocal Reduction and Isolation.

You can spend a few hundred dollars on a professional deverb plugin. It is not an easy or automatic task.

Re: Plugins go to ~/Library... is problematic

Do you want to add custom plugins? If not, just proceed as before. That's irrelevant. If you have an app that is marketed to EDU then you really need to think through multiple user support. Storing plugins for an app in a single user's folder makes my job as admin more difficult. Not impossible, ju...

Re: Plugins go to ~/Library... is problematic

For Nyquist plug-ins, running this script in the Nyquist Prompt effect will give a list of all locations where Audacity can find Nyquist plug-ins: ;version 4 (setf dirs "Plug-in directories:\n") (dolist (dir (get '*SYSTEM-DIR* 'plug-in) dirs) (setf dirs (strcat dirs dir "\n"))) ...

Re: 2.1.3 continues to fail on OpenSuse (latest)

davepl (see above) made a non-STL wxWidgets for openSUSE and the OpenSUSE repository builds of Audacity 2.1.2 and 2.1.3 use this. The core problem that Audacity does not compile against wxWidgets built with STL remains - see http://bugzilla.audacityteam.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1393 . So if you want to c...

Re: Distortion

An AUP file is not an audio file. Please see How to post an audio sample.

Also see http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/faq_ ... .html#sync - scroll down to "To fix speed drift, pitch and quality problems, try the following tips".

Re: Plugins go to ~/Library... is problematic

/Library/Application Support/audacity/Plug-Ins is not supported. The Manual page that you gave the link for, Gale, looks to say that /Library/Application Support/audacity/Plug-Ins is supported - and that thus system-wide plug-ins should be supported. I don't know if there is a display problem on Pe...

Re: Sync audio with foreign language text

The text documents I get from Project Gutenberg are usually plain .txt files, which I import into Open Office Writer for formatting/printing. Yes I think you will have to format them to a rich format other than plain text to have a working hyperlink. Hyperlinks won't help you move to a specific par...

Re: [Settings for recording] "Audio to buffer" and WASAPI vs

Why is "Audio to buffer" such a concern for you? Are you doing overdubs? If not, I suggest leaving the setting on the default 100 ms. As you noted, the setting has no relationship to how soon the waves are drawn on the screen. As it says in the 2.1.3 Release Notes , "Audio to buffer&q...
