![]() ![]() Then by selecting Effect->AmplifyI discovered that a pre-generated value was suggested for me to normalise the sound files. I loaded each file into Audacity on a separate track. Have to report a FAIL so far on this one then. Sadly, Ark reported that it was unable to open the archive as no suitable plugin had been found. I’m a bit unsure as to what to do at this point, so I re-downloaded the archive in case I had managed to download a corrupt version and searched through the software packages for bzip2, and found an Archive manager called Ark. Hmm… it tells me that the “Compressed file ends unexpectedly, perhaps it is corrupted?” and that I can use the -tvv option to repair (didn’t work), or the bzip2recover program to try and fix the archive. Where path to file in my case is /home/gary. Its much more than those tools, and its much simpler to use. Its not a compressor, normalizer or limiter although it contains all three. So, I typed: tar -xvjf /Levelator-1.3.0-Python2.5.tar.bz2 The Levelator is a software that runs on Windows and OS X that adjusts the audio levels within your podcast or other audio file for variations from one speaker to the next, for example. f = use the following tar archive for the operation.v = verbose (so that I can see all proceeding happily).So, to extract the file I am going to use the following switches: Into a terminal window, I could see from the result ( /usr /lib/tar etc.) that tar is indeed installed on my system, so this looks like it’s going to be terminal work. I couldn’t find anything that seemed to fit the bill. Selecting ‘ Open With Other Application‘, I was able to look through my installed software to see if I could find tar to do the job (or maybe even try with ZIP or RAR?). Then I tried to unpack the tar ball (a compressed file, like a ZIP file) by right-clicking and choosing ‘ Open‘, but Studio tried to open using Mousepad (a text editor) – D’oh! That won’t work. Their download instructions warn me that I will need Python 2.5 and wxPython installed. This program does not seem to be in the Repositories so I had to download the tar ball from their site at. I will try to achieve this more comprehensively, but for now, I looked for a simple tool I used to use called Levelator. ini (settings) file is now deleted during installation in order to properly refresh the news timestamp. ctrl-o/cmd-o (Open File.) now works after alt-tab has been used to switch applications. My first audio task is to ensure that the output audio level of 3 audio files is within a roughly equivalent Loudness value. The Levelator® now verifies that it has sufficient disk space for temporary and output files before processing the source file.
