Re: Social Media

The current developers have all they can do to keep the basic program running, but if you wanted to develop these plugins that would be great. Alternately, if you know someone interested in volunteering programming time to this product, that would be great, too.

Post back.

Re: cannot record with working interface

Tascam US-144 This model has been discontinued..... The web page has comments about a software upgrade they made...in 2008. So the chance of your having up-to date Windows 10 drivers is zero, and you need them because Widows 10 is not a simple Windows upgrade. It's a new system and needs drivers wr...

Re: Testing ACX

There is one thing you might inspect.

Desktop > Finder > Preferences > Advanced.

You can force a Mac to cover up filename extensions. I wouldn't.

Re: endless loop - gaps

You can make a DATA DVD that will hold 8 hours of MP3 show. I don't know the magic of actually playing it, but I think most machines with optical drives should be able to do that. It looks like a shiny, thin hard drive.

Re: endless loop - gaps

Is the real job you want to produce the DVD Splash Screen so it lasts a long time (Play Movie, Languages, Subtitles, etc). Because of the laser resetting above you can't actually do that without a hit. However, we discovered the solution is to produce the first four or five loops as one video . It l...

Re: Volume level of recording on the fly

Not that I know of. Audacity is a post-production editor and doesn't apply effects, filters and corrections in real time. Sometimes you can convince Windows to help out. Audacity gets its sound from Windows. Is there something in WASAPI settings? You're getting out of my world. I'm not a frequent Wi...

Re: Testing ACX

Mine doesn't do this, but on occasion, the Mac will download a file and not recognize the extension, the part after the dot. Rather than leave well enough alone, it tags on .txt because it realizes, correctly as it turns out, that most of the content of the file is, in fact, text. However, the origi...

Re: Computer Crashes while Recording

Windows use to have a wave capture program - Windows Sound Recorder - Start > Programs > Accessories > Entertainment That can be your search term. I'm not on Windows. Do you have to stop Audacity? Can you use Record Pause (P key)? P again to pick up where it was. That can be another problem if the ...

Re: To upgrade or not to upgrade?

It should not make any difference, but I would avoid putting dots in folder names. That's why all those folders look like: Audacity2-0-3.

The -dash- is one of the two unconditionally acceptable name characters. The other is _underscore_.

Re: To upgrade or not to upgrade?

And to specifically answer the question, if you're happy with the way your Audacity works (other than that), you should stay there. You should know it's possible to install multiple Audacity versions by installing each one in its own Application folder rather than leave the Audacity installer to its...
