Re: [Audacity-nyquist] New "Silence Finder" Plug-In, Need Help on Memory Use

[David S. <dav...@vc...>]

Hi Alex,

Neat! Sorry, I cannot help out with your memory question.

I'm not so much interested in making a label track, but
several people on the Audacity users list have asked for a plug to
remove silence from speeches.

I don't understand a lot of the code, but I suspect you could turn
this into a process plug by using extract or extract-abs:

(extract 0 0.5 s)

leaves you with the first half of the mono track in Audacity,

(extract-abs 0 0.5 s)

leaves you with the first half second of a mono track.

I suspect you could sequentially find areas of audio containing
sound, and string them together using seq or seqrep.
