[Stunned blank look] It's official. I have no idea. Speed changes almost always happen when the computer isn't going fast enough for some reason. ...... the existing clip plays fast but the pitch doesn't go up ....... If you open the clip in a plain, non-complicated timeline with no recording or sha...

<<<I use a logitec headset to record.>>> We use a series of Labtec headsets for videoconference work, and they're very live, bright, and sparkly.

I did it by setting stop points further and further along while I played the whole first segment. I stopped when I ...

How about we tell you how to find it? There is one Audacity preference that drives me nuts and that's Auto Scroll with Playback, or whatever it's called on your version.

<<<I have been recording radio programs for months without any problems>>> That's the alarm bell. You have plenty of room left on your hard drive and it's thoroughly error checked and defragmented? I do that, too, and if I didn't clean up after each production, I'd be out of room in a couple of week...
