Description

X-Audacity is a browser extension that gives you access to a remotely hosted Audacity instance directly from your web browser. You can import audio files, reduce noise, cut and merge clips, apply effects, and edit audio online with professional-quality results. It is ideal for music, podcasts, audiobooks, interviews, and other audio projects, and it is integrated with our file manager for convenient audio file management. We do not modify Audacity in any way and provide it in its original, unmodified form. This remote-access model is designed to align with GPLv3 requirements, since the software is accessed over a network rather than distributed as a modified local copy through the extension. Its main features are: - Import sound files, edit them, and combine them with other files: * Import and export WAV, AIFF, AU, FLAC and Ogg Vorbis files. * Import and export all formats supported by libsndfile Such as GSM 6.10, 32-bit and 64-bit float WAV and U / A-Law. * Import MPEG audio (including MP2 and MP3 files) using libmad . * Import raw (headerless) audio files using the “Import Raw” command. * Create WAV or AIFF files. * Export MP3 Files with the optional LAME encoder library . * Import and export AC3, M4A/M4R (AAC) and WMA with the optional FFmpeg library. - Sound Quality: * Supports 16-bit, 24-bit and 32-bit (floating point) samples (Latter preserves the samples in excess of full scale). * Sample rates and formats are converted using high-quality resampling and dithering. * Tracks with different sample rates or formats are converted Automatically in real time. - Audio Editing online: * Easy Editing with Cut, Copy, Paste and Delete. * Unlimited Undo (and Redo) to go back any number of steps. * Edit and mix large numbers of tracks. * Multiple clips per track are allowed. * Label tracks. * Envelope Tool to fade the volume up or down smoothly. - Audio effects: * Change the pitch without altering the tempo (or vice-versa). * Remove static, hiss, hum or other constant background noises. * Alter frequencies with Equalization, Bass Boost, High / Low Pass and Notch Filter effects. * Adjust volume with Compressor, Amplify, Normalize, Fade In / Fade Out. * Remove Vocals from Suitable stereo tracks. * Create voice-overs for podcasts or DJ sets using Auto Duck effect. * Echo * Phaser * Reverse * Truncate Silence - Audio online Analysis: * Spectrogram view modes for visualizing frequencies. * “Plot Spectrum” command for detailed frequency analysis. * “Sample Data Export” for exporting to file Containing amplitude values ​​for each sample in the selection. * Contrast Analysis for analyzing volume average rms Differences Between foreground speech and background music. This extension is available for free online users but it also allows the integration with premium users and on-premises OffiDocs deployments where the OffiDocs Audacity is installed. IMPORTANT: This extension scans the URLs browsed in order to detect audio files. The audio files detected appear in a file list located in the extension popup that are retrieved from our servers. The scanning is performed from our servers so your URL are reported to our system. No personal data is collected. This scan can be disabled with a checkbox that appears in the extension popup. If you disable this scanning, this functionality is not available so then the extension functionality is very limited.

When trying to open Audacity after the long annoying wait it came up with an error message saying that Audacity couldn't find a safe place to store temporary files. Trying different locations (/tmp. ~ as it's running on a remote Linux server) didn't work. I did manage to get it to load once with Edge but it's such a hassle to transfer files between the remote session and my local PC (not to mention clicking out of the browser window would close the session) that I gave up. I've got an ad-blocker installed which removed the ads but I suspect it's probably riddled with ads, the extension asked to show popups for a website so I wouldn't be surprised if I'd allowed that there would be numerous popups appear. I certainly wouldn't trust something like this in a school setting which I was investigating the extension for. In the end I found a better browser based solution called Twistedwave (twistedwave.com/online) which worked much better.

The page is so covered in ads that you can barely even see the editor. Also wouldn't load any files from my computer. It can barely even play the demo audio that loads on startup without a bunch of skipping and glitching. This thing is a joke.

This isn't the actual program of audacity, it's just a picture of audacity with a bunch of ads running around it. it does not work in any way shape or form. this is the dumbest extension i've ever seen, i dont know how people can live with themselves, i guess people just dont care how they get money even if they have to rip people off to get it, pathetic.totally lame page , boo on you sir!! this shouldn't be allowed on here, you're a discredit to all who try to produce extensions, really really tacky!!

The description seemed just what I was looking for so I installed it. I open it and the left pane looks like a document editor not an audio editor. When I try to open a file, it seems to be looking at Linux files, not my Chromebook files. What a complete disappointment!

Completely useless. The screen is so minimized you can't even see the track well enough to edit. It's like trying to run an antiquated DOS program on your cell phone, actually that might work better.

Wow, it's true, this is useless. I got it to "run" and play the sample sound file. I could tolerate the GUI embedded in the Linux emulator. However, it in not way will recognize a Recording, or input device. I didn't check about existing files. However, Recording, is the ONLY reason I had this Chromebook and for Audacity since used it for years quite successfully with hundreds of songs published all over. I read the app control about USB devices and this newly released Chrombook has three and one of each "type" - it recognized none. How? does one use a DAW? a USB port. The "mic" on the Chromebook? Even that didn't work. So? - Don't off useless apps Chrome Web Store or make them fix them? OMG!

Absolute garbage. It may as well not exist.It can't record, it won't play audio, it won't do anything. Google Web store may as well take it off of its platform because this is a waste of a download.

JFC, from the other reviews I can already tell this works like eating soup by stabbing the broth (i.e. it doesn't). I'm calling it now that everyone who rated it more than 3 stars is either a bot or artificially raising the review rating. These idiots plastered ads everywhere, pretty much making the thing worthless. From other reviews I can tell they used the oldest version of Audacity to copypaste ads all over considering how others say this is impossible to import files into. Deleting this extension permanently, the creator site also asks for notification permission which I'm betting is just to plaster even more garbage ads all over your browser. Christ, this sucks.

Fun fact if you get Crossover, and then download the REAL Audacity for windows, just install it on there.

Everything about this app is old. I can't figure out how to record or upload. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere.

the editing is nice but it doesn't download to your normal file box, along with when you are trying to fix audio that only goes into one ear and you switch it to mono it fixes it but when you go through the swapping files nonsense it doesn't keep the mono speaker switch

Not the same program as it is on other systems. Doesn't work as well as it should and can't handle real editing projects just a few files.

fancy some more?

It's a full SCAM. The import system is the worst part. It makes NO SENSE. We should just be able to pull songs from our files. I was trying to make a song nightcore but I couldn't because the system was too confusing. Don't download. It's also the same thing as other apps.

It stopped working after about a few years so I basically stopped using it altogether after I discovered what a piece of garbage it really is so if I could rate 0 stars out of 5 stars that would be my vote.

Quite simply does not record. I have a very powerful mac pro and fully updated chrome web browser. I only tried this app to test how it might work on a chromebook. It doesn't work on my mac at all. The audacity program works on my mac just fine. It is definitely the extension that is faulty.

I can't even try using it on my Chromebook. If importing a file is even possible, it's extremely difficult. FFmpeg? LAME? Hey, I didn't just graduate from MIT, okay?

While an interesting idea you need a big screen to use it. On my Chromebook and laptop I cannot read the text in the programs. Without the bars around the program it might be usable.

Loved the features but couldn't figure out how to access files securely, or connect to dropbox as per instructions. When using the public file storage my import worked, but the export didn't save any of the edits - just another copy of the exact same file. I love the audacity software, and this web version has so much potential when working on systems that don't let software be installed, but needs some clearer instructions and better options for file storage/upload/download. Why isn't it connected to Google drive when its a Google chrome plugin? Sadly, useless for what it claims to do.

Works well, I will tell you in order for it actually serve it's purpose you must go to the home section on the app and upload your files from there, then launch audacity to actually use and edit them. When your done from there, save from audacity to those files and download it from the home section in the app again. It's a weird process, but at least it works..

It's just terrible. This software is not good for Chromebooks, but considering the fact that it is good for anything else in the world really, I'll average it out to 3 stars.
