Audacity Forum

If you have a sound track pounding away and nobody can hear it, it's almost certainly a cancellation problem. Download and play this test sound clip. It's really short. 39 seconds. http://www.kozco.com/tech/LRMonoPhase4.wav It's in four segments. I bet you're going to be missing one of the four -- o...

Well, it seems that I'm not going to get a reply.

I don't know how many user forums you've posted on, but it usually takes days to get an answer. We usually hit it within a bunch of hours, if that.
