Ive been having some quirky problems with exporting files recently. When I played some back they all had some moments of silence during playback which they dont have if I listen to original file in Audacity. I also had one that changed format from stereo to mono. very odd. the only solution was to g...

i always save my work when ive finished a session. ive never deleted an files to do with audacity. dont understand what happened.

Audacity really annoyed me yesterday. I went to open a project file and I got messages coming up that there was a crash or bugs which resulted in lost data.

Ive been using Krystal Audio Editor sofware in tandem with Audacity. Both software are excellent for what they are designed to do? What im trying to do is export my song from Audacity into Krystal (separate tracks) so I can edit them there. Is this possible? I dont know what file format I need to ex...

Ive installed VST bridge, lame thing, and some effects. They are in my PLug-In file, within Audacity programme file. Unfortunately, none of these work when Im in Audacity. I dont even get the option of selecting "Plug In" now as some of the sub-menu options have vanished. I also cant export to MP3 f...

What are you recording with? A guitar chord with an adapter going into the Line IN jack? If that's the case it's going to come out mono. Best to record the track mono, duplicate the track and then make a stereo track out of them. You could try making up a cable that goes from the guitar into 1/8 st...
