Audacity Forum

Audacity 2.3.2....I search the forum...couldn't find how to do volume following...I want a track to follow the volume of another track, and then lower the volume 10 decibels below the volume of the other track....very different than normalizing, but should be doable....

I have tried to do a search on the fourms here, and I cannot find what I am looking for. So here is the story. My friend and I are doing a Podcast from two different states. We want to find a way to each record our audio locally so we each have our own track, His voice, and my voice. But I cannot fi...

Hi early testers of Catalina (like me)… I just ran into the same issue — mic can be selected but the monitoring levels are not showing and there is no sound being recorded with macOS Catalina 10.15 Beta (19A512f) and Audacity 2.3.2. Researching a lot and then all of a sudden remembering something th...

Yeah, using a different format did solve the problem. ffmpeg doesn't support concatenating wav files though, so I converted au to mpeg (2x mono) to mpeg (1x mono) to mp3. That works okay. Here's the code: import os from tkinter import filedialog import subprocess ffmpegPath = input("Where is ff...

I've downloaded the current version of Audacity which is supposed to have the Save as MP3 Lameware built in but it isn't happening for me! I have downloaded the LAME encoder but when I export as and select MP3 a pop up window suggests Audacity needs the file libmp3lame.dylib to create MP3 Then this ...

To check for duplications, I would have to search every project in the folder. You can use simple Windows search on one of the renegade files and see if you get two hits. You don't need to search for everything. One or two sets of duplications is enough. That could point to a system error. My initi...

1a. "The AUP file and the _DATA folder must be in the same place or folder, must have the same name and it must be the name it you gave it in Audacity. " Yes, as I said they are there, in the same folder. And they look as pictured. 1b. "The little AU files are not all sound and you sh...

... I have a WAV file that i'm trying to get the background noise(ceiling fan on high) removed or at least quieter. See ... https ://manual.audacityteam.org/man/noise_reduction.html & ... https ://www .youtube.com/results?search_query=Audacity+noise+reduction+removal Don't get your hopes up, fa...

As title says, I've never used Audacity, or any audio editing program in fact, and need help changing the bit rate for a WAV file. I don't really know what anything means, and everything I search tells me to open the options when exporting, which I can't do with a WAV file. Could anyone help? I'm tr...

how do i amplify the floor noise? Select some "silence" then amplify it to 0dB . It's just random noise but people interpret parts of it as speech, (an audio equivalent of Rorschach inkblots: a form of pareidolia ). The codecs & (other processing) used can make plain noise seem even m...
