Audacity Forum

No currently released version of Audacity will do anything in Real Time.

It's not for lack of people who want that. It's that Real Time Audacity is a different program. They're having a hard enough time bringing out the normal 1.4 update.

<<<Then there will be the need to restructure the forum - will Audacity 1.2.x still be supported? Perhaps the 1.2.x and 1.3.x forums should remain, but have all topics locked as at that time Audacity 1.4 and 1.5 (beta) will be the current versions.>>> No, not exactly. 1.2 Stable will remain and full...

So "Using This Forum" would be what we're doing now? Would you keep "Adding Features"? This is a convenience step now, but it will be much more important when 1.4 goes on line. If you were lost before, you'll never figure out where to post. I wonder how much leeway there is with ...

<<<I have a problem with hissing "sssss" when I record narrations>>> You will find that fixing this in post will feel exactly like you're tied to a post with somebody hitting you. It would pay handsome dividends to fix this before you create damaged sound files in the first place. Are you ...

What happens if you Export As WAV, and then open up that wav file and Export As MP3?
