I know in Audacity you can find out what key the song you are playing is in
but I don't know if there is something in that program to give individual
notes. I use this when changing the pitch of a karaoke track. Most other
editors I have tried just give a frequency which I have no clue about. so I
like how it gives the note of the key.

Subject: [all-audio] Ascertaining Pitch/Frequency of Different Sounds
Hi. I hope everyone is well.
I'm working on music projects at the moment and I need to ascertain
the pitch of notes, either by being notified of that directly or by
being able to obtain information regarding a note's frequency so that
I can convert it using my reference guide. The music is in a file on
my laptop, so I was wondering whether or not I can use GoldWave to
find out this information using Jaws. If not, I'm wondering whether or
not there is any accessible DAW (Reaper, Audacity, etc) that will do
this, or any website where sounds can be uploaded and an automatic
answer regarding the pitch/tone given in return.
By the way, I'm aware of the iPhone app Talking Tuner, but I'm not
confident that it's giving me accurate results (I'm unsure whether
VoiceOver's speech is influencing the results, and I'm also finding
that the phone doesn't always pick up sounds played off of my computer
or through my speakers).
Thanks very much in advance for any advice... I'm looking forward to
hearing from you.
Take care, Danny

for doing that, so I hesitate.
I will get on my knees.
Thank you.

You're right! It went in without a problem. It even set up the input
device the way I wanted. Now I'm having trouble with the mic. Have a
meeting this afternoon and can't get the mic to work.

it should work the same as 5.68.

My new GoldWave installed in the "program files" folder; but the
older one (5.68) remains in the program files (x86) folder; and
that's the one that runs from the desktop shortcut. Looks like I'll
have to remove the old one and point the shortcut to the new one.
In addition, I'll have to put in my registration codes. Then comes
the big problem: choosing and setting up a recording device.
I'll be back.

Thanks Philip, Dennis and John.
Dennis, I'm using GW 5.70, and I've got Auto Scroll Lock checked
in the View Menu. I'm assuming this is referred to as Follow
Playback Control in new versions? I'm assuming that basically
they're one and the same?
John, yes, I do have my window maximized. For a brief moment or
too earlier in the week I did think this was the problem, sadly
though not the case.
Philip, your suggestion isn't a procedure I'm currently used to
using, but I'll start giving it a go and see how it works out.
When all's said and done, perhaps updating to the latest versions
of GW and JAWS scripts may be the sensible thing to do. If it
continues to happen, it may well be PC through the window time!!
Please feel free to toss any other suggestions into the mix.
