Good Afternoon,
I have been unable to import these flac files? And have installed the FFmpeg:

When I attempted to import ‘raw data’ it is just noise.
What do you advise, please?
Thank you.
It worked for me. Are you sure you have the FLAC file? 001.flac is 6.06 MB.
I’m not sure, but I don’t think you need FFmpeg for FLAC. Did you try downloading MP3? I know Audacity can open an MP3 file without any add-ons, although you need LAME to make (export) an MP3.
When I attempted to import ‘raw data’ it is just noise.
Of course! The raw FLAC data is compressed and it has to be decompressed to get audio. (Compression is sort-of like encryption… It looks like… sounds like… garbage unless it’s properly decoded.)
Aha! I downloaded the wrong file. And it is working now. Thank you. How can I determine if it is an original flac file or if it was another file format and saved as flac?
And I also need to remove echo from the recording, please? I am unsure if it was part of the original or added as an effect. Nevertheless, I need to remove it.
Thank you.
