Preferences for Windows/Audacity 1.2 are burned into the Dreaded Windows Registry and it's really rough to fix a scrambled Audacity. Just resintalling Audacity won't do it.

What we're trying to explain is that Audacity Projects are not "a file." One project can be multiple files and folders. Because of their complex nature, Projects are brittle and easily damaged, something not generally explained very well in the Audacity documentation. People can lose proje...

A project isn't "a file." A project can be hundreds or thousands of files managed by a supervisory file--the aup file. This is the file everybody thinks is their show. It's not. It's job is to point to their show. The aup file can be opened up in NotePad and read. Here's a simple one... ht...

The little circle with two black arrows pointing in is the "Line-In" of your Mac. It's stereo and "high level" suitable for connection to the output of a sound mixer, an audio or video tape player, a CD Player.....or a microphone preamplifier. Past the arithmetic and engineering,...
