I want to make an audio sound like it's someone speaking in Zoom or Google Meets, etc. I suppose they compress and lower the audio quality but is there known way to replicate this effect in Audacity?
Someone on Fourth Plain is gonna wake up without their catalytic converter :(
edit: Stop inboxing me, I know phones don't send actual sound waves '_'
I was just reading some comments re the Burgundians before they were released; a majority of comments were lamenting the creation of a civilization with such strong sounding bonuses (eco techs one age earlier, cavalier in castle age and their unique techs), and yet just a few months later these had to be buffed.
So in the spirit of this, could you name a civ bonus that seems very strong on paper but actually in practise wouldnt make much of a difference?
My vote would be for; Military buildings can research upgrades during unit creation
Edit- some nice suggestions below, but I feel everyone is being rather conservative with their suggestions; go crazy!
Some people may just say that "you voice has always sounded that way" yet that may not be completely true. When you speak into a cell phone a microphone turns your voice into electrical signals. A microchip in the phone modulates (or varies) a radio wave using the electrical signal. The radio wave travels through the air to a nearby cell tower; the tower sends your voice to the person you are calling and the process is reversed so that the person on the other end can hear your voice The microphone and receiver create the variance in electric current in some other fashion, but there is always a membrane which vibrates due to the sound of your voice and electric current varying because of it. "The sound of your voice changes either the resistance or capacitance of a sound sensor (the microphone), this electrical analog signal is then amplified. The amplified signal goes to an ADC (analog to digital converter) which changes it into a digital number, for example no sound might correspond to a code of 0000000000000000 (16 zeros on a 16 bit DAC) or 1111111111111111 (for the loudest possible sound pressure). Variations in sound pressure cause a rapidly changing number code to be generated. Good quality sound might be sampled at a rate of 22 to 44 thousand times per second (but generally can be lower for human voice). This purely numerical information which represents the sound pressure at thousands of instances in time per second can then be transmitted through various wireless protocols. It could be digitally transmitted and sent TCP/IP (internet), modulated to a radio signal and sent to a cell tower, etc… but once the signal is sent and received by the remote end the digital “list of numeric information” must be digitized. This is usually achieved with the the use of a DAC (digital to analog converter). This device converts a number into a voltage level. This voltage goes to an amplifier and the amplifier can then directly drive a speaker. The speaker pulls and pushes by the magnitude of the voltage driving it which moves the air around it reproducing the originally recorded sound."

I haven't seen any posts about this in quite some time, but it still baffles me that this hasn't become a big thing. Why is that? I feel like there are bits and pieces out there of ways to do this, but I've not seen any of these come together.
It only takes a few minutes to find that there are land line systems out there that have bluetooth technology built in to allow a user to use any headset, and even their existing smart phone, to answer and (for some) place calls. I've seen some companies start to launch something like this, but I've never seen it come off the ground. Archos (say what you will about them, but I've always thought they were at the forefront of innovation, but have unfortunately slacked at implementation), had an Android powered home phone but it never became available in the US (like most older Archos products).
Another Idea would be to get something like the Asus Padfone x to work with a service like Republic Wireless. I'm not sure what the /r/Android community's thoughts are on the Padfone idea, but I think that, if sold at a decent price, a $5 a month wifi only 'land line' could be a great solution for a lot of people. Land line ownership had died down significantly since the birth of the cell phone and I can honestly say that I may never own a land line unless something like this becomes available and is executed well. I don't own a tablet, more of a Desktop/laptop person, so having the added functionality of being able to control Chromecast and soon in the future AndroidTV with an Android home phone sounds like a very convenient solution.
What do you all think?
Hello!
I'm trying to track down an issue with an old Dell R710 that I have. About a month ago, when I powered it on, a strange clicking sound began coming from one of the redundant PSU's. It is accompanied by the LED on the back switching on and off with the clicks.
I can't seem to make heads or tails of this, as there are no other errors being reported, and iDRAC reports the PSU as healthy.
I've tried swapping them around, and the issue follows that particular PSU despite what slot it's in.
Should I live with the incessant clicking, which is slowly driving me insane, or is it on it's way out?
Thanks!
Hi, all, there are lot of tips for powered speakers in $300-ish range here (Kanto YU6, Audioengine 5+, Edifier r2000db), but I don't want precise desk monitors (to find out that 80 % of music is badly recorded/mastered :)), but rather a "nice" sound for living room or kitchen (20-30 sqm). May be up to $400 if it makes a difference.
Right now I have Microlab Solo 6C, and I am not impressed (sound is 'okay', but there is 50hz buzz on most volume levels, and they need to be turned on and after that you need to move the volume one level to actually start them playing - WAF = zero :)), so I'm looking for a step up.
What would be your favourites here?
Rock for me (Muse, Pink Floyd ...), pop hits for wife and kids.
Ideally with signal detection, so that they could be on 24/7 and plugged into Airport Express 2 for Airplay.
Optical input is nice to have (because Airport Express - one less source of noise and hiss).
I was also considering new Audio Pro's C10 MKII, but have now realized that for their price (400 EUR) I can have pretty good powered speakers that are level or two above, and I won't be moving them anyway, so it doesn't have to be a single box.
Europe, any eshop is good (I'm specifically in Czech Republic, some stuff is imported, otherwise amazon.de works too). Thank you!
