Amart88 Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Well I downloaded tyga's album on itunes only problem is I cant actually see the file in audacity because apple has a death grip on it... I was wondering what the original verson of rack city peaks at. I know all decafs stuff is around -5db. My system is set to -5db so I usually check the songs I play to make sure they are not over that. Is the music off itunes store good quality, clean?

BJD3 Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 That's not because Apple has a death grip on it. Its because Audacity doesn't "ship" with the needed codec.

Sergeant_Skyrim Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Idk, the version I bought off iTunes is the one I said with the lower note being -8.1dB Quote Build in progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranny Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 depends on how long a section of the song you choose to "analyze". shorter sections will read higher than longer sections Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fritosaregood Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Just search the codec it says you need. It only takes a few mins.

Decaf Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 most versions I find are -2dB@29hz, -1dB@39hz very very loud for audacity to be accurate, you should be highlighting 1/2second starting at the beginning of the note or wherever the waveform amplitude is largest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baydestrian Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 LOL its not that Itunes has a death grip on it, its that Audacity can't import M4A files so you just need to right click the song in the Itunes player and choose to convert to mp3 and you will get a 320 mp3 version in the same folder.

Amart88 Posted May 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Thank you all for the info, I got the plugin so I can open itunes songs now. What do you do If the song is under -5db where your system is set to? I don't want clipping. Faded was showing -0.6db. wow Do I just turn it down or is there a way to make it -5db?
