Thanks Hi Hart, You could rename /home/chime/.namarc and let nama generate a new one, and/or you could inspect the file (or mail it to me) to see if there is something odd. Also, you should make sure you are running a sufficiently recent version of Nama. (Probably easiest to install from CPAN.) To create a new project nama -t > create projectname or nama -t -c projectname Nama is non destructive in that it writes WAV files, and doesn't generally remove them. It is also non destructive in that the entire project history is stored in git. Earlier snapshots can be revisited and branched. And after bouncing a track, you can restore the track state before bouncing, and twiddle it, and bounce it again. If you want to trim the beginning and end of an audio file using Nama, the usual way is to place two marks in the track and use them to set a region definition. Trimming a section from the middle of an audio file is possible, but slightly roundabout. I think you presently have to divide the track into three regions, and then create a sequence combining the first and third regions. A convenience function for this might be nice to have. It could be similar to sox's trim function. Nama's edits facility makes it possible to re-record a phrase or note any number of times, and then bounce the selected changes to a new WAV file. Feel free to post questions here, or for a more intimate experience, on the Nama mailing list :) Cheers, Joel > in advance > Hart > _______________________________________________ > Linux-audio-user mailing list > Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user -- Joel Roth _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
