Audacity Forum

Hi everyone, am trying to rip/save some tracks from a Rossini CD that we're going to sing in a few weeks time, so saw on Audacity help to use CDex to convert into WAV first. Unfortunately, despite also downloading special windows update to 'see' Win XP help files , CDex help won't open, so not very ...

Well, thanx Steve for your patience and also for offering all of your advice.
