Re: 2.0.4 crashes Windows 7 after install

Uninstalling Audacity can be an adventure.

Re: Combining tones trouble

Nope. You just get 100 Hz with more moxie. You'll get an interesting combination if they're not both exactly 100Hz.

Re: Noise, only when in Record, or when meter is active

You just called out the problem. There should be dead silence before you click the meters into Monitor Mode. You have dueling sound pathways. If you like to record internet audio, you generally record from Stereo-Mix or some service like that. You need to stop using Stereo-Mix during live production...

Re: Metadata Issue

for some reason, the information added to the Album Artist field is not read by either of the servers I use.
