Re: Amplification not saving

Stepping on old filenames is very bad practice. You can get bad results or no results at all, further, you may damage the original in the process and have nothing at the end. I would create the original work like you had it and change the filename. My understanding is that is what Audacity does whe...

Re: locked Play Region/cursor

Click where you want to lock the cursor. Left-click-drag a small Quick-Play region anywhere in the Timeline Right-click over the Timeline and wait for the Quick-Play to stop. Choose "Lock Play Region" from the still open context menu. OK, so that's a bug, but I don't see a pressing need t...

Re: locked Play Region/cursor

I would have heard that dum de when I amplified it. You're missing the point. If you want to start talking at the right time, so as to avoid the need to time-shift after recording, then you need a cue. It's like a "count in" for a band: 1, 2, 3, 4 start playing. Even professional orchestr...

Re: Waves DeBreath plugin

The plugins work properly in Audition. However, when I try to use de-breath in Audacity, the plugin will open, but not do anything. This despite using the same specs to remove breaths in Audition. Please post a short sample of audio that you can debreath in Audition but not in Audacity, and give th...

Re: "Recording" tab is grayed out (pavucontrol)

What I seem to be missing now is the "Output level meter." See, screenshot. I saw it once, but I can't recall what my configuration was when it made its appearance. I can see that you previously had a meter in the Recording tab of pavucontrol, but I always have the meter on Ubuntu. Perhap...

Re: Question to the developers

I researched this orphan files issue. I had OS crash while some A. project were opened. For these projects I see "orphaned files" message. These projects I closed myself do not generate that message. OK that seems normal behaviour for Audacity (it is not normal that OS X crashes). I sugge...

Re: "Reverse Karaoke"/How To Remove Music, Keep Vocals?

Are sound clips yet supported? They might be bettr than graphics alone. No, embedded audio is not yet supported. If you just write something like this in the wiki page, having uploaded the file: [[Media:drone.ogg|drones]] then if you click the "Drones" link the file will play in its own p...
