Pitch Change and Chorus

Post by SKing14 » Tue Jul 21, 2009 11:18 am

I guess there will be no more replies to my previous Pitch Change Post.I still have a small question..I believe it was StevetheFilddle who was helping me (thanks a lot man!) I still can't get the exact calculated number when bringing it up to speed from the Percent change so I either have to go with what is closest or Type it in exactly as my calculator shows which doesn't always work (if anyone other than Steve is Reading this and can or wants to help or offer advice or tips See my Post "Pitch Change2" further down the Forum and you'll see what I mean..Steve Knows whatI'm talking about.
Any help I would appreciate..I'm getting better at this..there's obviously a lot to learn.
The second thing is Does anyone know of a Link or how I can get a Good Chorus Effect Plug-In for Audacity?Maybe even some good Reverb but Chorus is definately needed!
Thanks

Hi SKing,

I've merged your last post with your previous topic so that anyone else replying will know what you are asking about.

Apologies for abandoning you part way through, I must have missed your last post and assumed that you had it sorted now.

Oh heck, let me work this out again...

The Problem:
First you want to slow the track down, then you want to speed it up again back to the original speed.

How to do it: (Calculator in hand)
Decide how much you want to slow it down by - Type the number into the "Change Speed" effect. Because you want to slow the music down you must type it as a negative number for example:

Code: Select all

-14
Write this number down, you will need it later.

You do the recording, and now you want to speed it up again to the original speed.
Get out the calculator....

Subtract the number that you wrote down from 100,
so assuming that you used "-14"

100 - 14 = 86

Write down the answer (in this example the answer is "86")

Now divide 100 by the answer

100 / 86 = 1.162790698


and multiply that by 100

1.162790698 x 100 = 116.279069767

We are now going to take away 100
116.279069767 - 100 = 16.279069767

This is the number that you need.
Type the number 16.279069767 into the Change Speed effect and apply it.


When you type the number in, you may need to delete the existing number before you start typing so that you don't get something silly.

For Windows you can download the "set of over 90 LADSPA plug-ins" from here: http://audacityteam.org/download/plugins
This includes a "Multivoice Chorus" effect.
It also include a reverb effect called "G-Verb".

There are instructions about how to use G-Verb here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=GVerb
The "Duplicate and mix together" method is generally better and easier.
