Thank you MR Hawaii, I forgot I had installed that, but looking in its man-page,
makes references to non-distructive editing. If I understand the concept, I
would think editing out portions of sound would certainly be destroying an
orriginal. Meanwhil, if I run nana -t and a file name, I get the following
error:
Found config file: /home/chime/.namarc
YAML::Tiny found bad indenting in line ' consumer:' at
/usr/share/perl5/Audio/Nama/Assign.pm line 283.
So please, how do I fix this-and-would NAMA be an interactive editor? Thanks in
advance

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

Hey Larry,
I see that Nama *does* have a snip function, that removes
content indicated by pairs of marks. So now, you just need a
hotkey to drop marks as you listen, and a way to pass the
marks to the snip function without having to type them.

Hey hey Joel,
in the .namarc config file, you have a section to bind keys to functions. Would it be
possible to bind keys to actual commands? If so, things like dropping marks could be
easily solved, as well as other commands, that don't need extra parameters or options.
Just an idea...

Well, you can already do it like this:
hotkeys:
Escape: process_command('some_command')
turning it around, we could have:
Escape: some_command
or
Escape: eval some($perl{code});

Well, you can already do it like this:
hotkeys:
Escape: process_command('some_command')
So in Larry's case, we could add:
k: process_command('mark')
I think I read this somewhere at some point and completely forgot about it.
turning it around, we could have:
Escape: some_command
or
Escape: eval some($perl{code});
I think the current way does have its merits,
especially if you do want to add commands or functions, which need some sort of extra
information.

Hi Hart,
In Nama it takes a deliberate choice to destroy an original.
Generally, the edited audio is recorded by the Mixdown track
(c.f. mixdown command) and automagically-mp3 encoded using
the name of the project.
Look into these directories for files:
~/nama/project-name
~/nama/project-name/.wav
Cheers,
Joel
