Re: Audacity "cuts" make pop sounds, not DC correction or zero-crossing

nah, we're nowhere near an airport (about 11km to Tegel airport, as the crow flies). If there's interference from ground radar, it would be messing up every recording in the city. :) We had another recording session at the same space, and tried using a different outlet. No pops this time. Absence of...

Same error popup, same error 111 in console.log. After updating (by replacing the folder I had in /Applications) and getting the error message, goog...

Re: After cutting/pasting a CLICK/POP is generated on track
