- In this video I’ll show you all the different effects you can get creating glitched photos by databending in Audacity.
This video is the culmination of hours of methodical trial and error, using all the possible effects in Audacity to databend a single photo to create a guide that allows easy comparison between all the different glitches. Not only does it contain almost 80 examples of the kinds of photos you’ll get, it also contains useful tips for specific effects.

I really love this channel!
This channel is such a hidden gem. Please never stop producing these tutorials.
Even if you are a bot I appreciate your kind comment :)
@@kindredcameraschannel bruh.
The reason why change pitch BMP makes that wavy pattern is because you're literally increasing the pitch of the waveform used to construct the image. You can see this effect by importing an image raw into GIMP and then adjusting the width until it tunes into focus. Data is ultimately numbers in storage and waves in execution. Also the reason why the effects corrupt from the bottom to the top is because the image data is stored upside down, so corrupting the second half of the file corrupts the top half of the image.
Using your tutorial for my glitch art project in a digital art course. Very helpful, thanks for the tips!
Hope the results were successful!
Best tutorial for this on yt thx dad
Cheers mate!
You should try this with the PPM format
1:08 about the note at the bottom, which input value does the -1 refer to? In the _Change Pitch_ menu in Audacity, the inputs are either semitones, or a percent change, so does the -1 imply a -100% change in pitch?
EDIT: silly me, a 100% decrease in pitch can't exist! i will experiment
Amazing video which I have referred back to dozens of times when databending!! such a helpful resource, your videos are a goldmine
These videos are really well made!
Thanks!
Wow! That's super cool
Awesome hey!
What size image did you use if you dont mind? I'm trying to get the phaser effect to look similar to yours and image size seems to be playing a part in some of the results, any tips would be greatly appreciated! great videos!
I normally use small images, between 1000-2000 pixels. Good luck!
How in the world did you get the change of tempo to look like that? Try as I might and I can't get anywhere close.
I think I had a student with this problem recently, I’m trying to remember what the solution was. It might be that the change needs to be a negative number, I think something was corrupting when the ‘soundtrack’ got smaller. My advice when trouble shooting these things, make changes in the smallest amount possible (eg 1% increments).
@@kindredcameraschannel I have the same problem in tif files, tried with +1% increments and -1% decrements and the file does not work :c. I hope can you remember the solution 🙏
Hi, I resolved the problem, you need to convert your jpg images to tiff with RRGGBB pixel order
@@dvoraklovelace2801 Thanks for the response, and sorry I took so long to look into it. Glad you found a solution!
@@kindredcameraschannel Sounds like a buffer overflow. My guess is that it allocates a certain amount of memory and then reads that directly. If it reaches EndOfFile before reaching the allocated buffer it fails gracefully rather than create a buffer overflow exploit allowing Remote Arbitrary Code Execution which seem to be all the rage these days. My guess is that if you pad the end with zeros by using Generate -> Silence to make the difference. Or noise/solid frequency if you want to fill it with something else.
Hey, you probably won’t see this, but I’m having trouble exporting. No matter what I do, wether it’s .tiff or .bmp, my Mac won’t recognize the format and open it. Even if it did perfectly fine before I used audacity. Any tips?
SAME, did you find a solution?
@@jack_o1994 not really. sometimes it does work if I edit the name of the file a lot - for some reason completely unknown to me - but other than that, no. I’ve only found to images that I am able two use without too much hassle. The rest just don’t seem to work.
Sorry for the late response, haven't been back here for a while. It can be a tricky process, but a few things you can try:
- Export the image without any changes (this will help you work out if the problem is happening on the original photoshop or audacity end)
- Use a small file - around 1000 pixels
- Things that shorten the audio can corrupt more easily, particularly for BMP's
- Do a small invert change in the middle, this is my go to for troubleshooting as it rarely causes issues
If you can't get it working, you could also look into hex/text editor glitching, which isn't as versatile but often works a bit easier.
