Audacity Forum

The elves on the forum are all part-time, volunteer helpers. Every so often, Real Life pops up and we have to stop. If you found a way to process your work without going through the diagnostic analysis craziness, then you should do it that way. Fair warning ACX Technical Conformance is only the firs...
