The AUP file is not "the full show." It's the directory of how to put the little au files back together into a concert.

Disaster recovery got very much better in the later versions of Audacity.

It's the Photoshop Clone Stamp tool. Borrow a bough of leaves from somewhere close (to keep the lighting right) and stamp it over the bird. If you only do it once, few people can tell without another Photoshop to rip the picture apart. If you go nuts with the tool, you get the stupid pictures where ...

normally all you need to is check that the defrag is scheduled to occur when the computer is switched on. But you're not using it?

You have two problems with that clip. There is hum/buzz from possibly a bad microphone cable and there is also hiss from possibly a bad microphone preamplifier. Under the best conditions, we can produce a show with quiet spaces between the words, but noisy words. Also, once you remove the noise, it ...

Can you post a track with the noise?
