Audacity Forum

SOLVED by YOU! Thanks, the problem really was I did not comprehend what you told me initially. At this age it takes awhile. Now, somewhere I read something about WINE. Do I need this? Also, where do I find out about purchasing Audacity to export to MP3. Thanks again for your time and effort. Wine i...

I can't explain it. If you're concerned about it, then I think the laptop will need to be opened up to determine precisely where the sound is coming from. (Don't do that yourself unless you are competent repairing laptops). What I find really really unexplainable is the fact that this happens only ...

In detail, how did you do that? Is there, absolutely definitely, without shadow of doubt, no sound coming out of t...

Hello guys, I'm about to describe a problem that is really, really weird. So basically, each time I use Audacity 2.3.3 on my laptop (running openSUSE tumbleweed, package installed from the official distro repository) and I open a file, whenever I click on the audio waveform to do anything, I can hea...
