Re: Default Values

And Wahwah seems to remember last used settings Not after restarting Audacity. Again, the defaults are quite arbitrary. The default could just as easily be with all controls at the mid position. And I note that the Manual doesn't warn you of this slightly odd (and, to me certainly, unexpected) beha...

Re: Default Values

But Normalize remembers and re-uses the previous value you set for peak amplitude. Ah yes, you're right there, but do you think that Normalize needs recoverable defaults? The "factory default" is pretty arbitrary, it could just as easily be 0, -0.5, -1, -2, -3 dB or any other preferred va...

Re: Default Values

Not all of the effects/generators/analysers need such a feature: Amplify always goes to default, as does Normalize... True for Amplify - it always goes to a New Peak Amplitude of 0 (but displayed curiously as -0.0) But Normalize remembers and re-uses the previous value you set for peak amplitude. A...

Re: Make Dialog box sticky?

And rather than just using Ctrl+R to repeat the last effect - be aware that in 2.0.1 we introduced the ability for the user to define their own keyboard shortcuts for effects (for my LP transcriptions I have shortcuts set up for Amplify, Normalize, Fade-in and Fade-out - I find these extremely usefu...

Re: Make Dialog box sticky?

You would probably be better off using the Normalize effect rather than Amplify Normalize takes the sound to a defined level (-0.5 in your case) - and that vlaue will be remembered by Audacity for your next use. See: http://manual.audacityteam.org/help/manual/man/normalize.html Amplify changes the s...

Re: Default Values

Didn't we once have a discussion about adding a mark to the sliders to indicate the default positions? Yes we did, I remember it but can't find the thread now. I don't think it was an "Adding Features ..." thread as I can't find it on the Wiki>FR or Wiki>PFR Wiki>PFR has the following rel...
