Creating Repeat phrases/silences

[Trebor]

I’m glad there’s a plug-in solution to repeating silences.

The plug-in extends all existing silences in the recording
(it was designed to be applied to language tutorials to give people more time to repeat the preceding phrase)

How it works:
The plug-in scans the selected track, looking for places where the audio level remains below a specified level (the “Threshold”) for more than a specified period. These places are classified as “silences”. The plug-in then extends each detected “silence” by inserting additional silence at the end of each detected silence.

The amount of silence inserted may be defined in three ways:

As an absolute length (in seconds).
As a proportion of the length of the detected silence.
As a proportion of the length of the preceding sound.

I’m a newbie to plug-ins. Is it possible to give me a step-by-step …

“ExtendSilence.ny” is a Nyquist type plugin.
Here’s the Audacity manual page on how to install Nyquist plugins …
