Audacity Forum

Twice today. I tried posting to Recording Techniques at 9:56 am Pacific and at 10:01 am it still hadn't completed loading, so I gave up. Then at 2:16 pm Pacific, it died again with: --The Connection has Timed Out-- --The server at audacityteam.org is taking too long to respond.-- Those are only the ...

If you have Windows file extensions turned off and somebody hands you a file with an icon you've never seen before, what do you do? QuickTime INFO will go a long way here, but let's assume you want to stay in the Land of...

Traditionally, any music that plays really fast is a result of importing compressed sound files that Audacity doesn't know how to properly decode. They don't always break right away, but they do become unstable. Where did the files come from? Do you have windows set so you can see file extensions? I...

I wonder if those music recognition programs would get killed by having the wrong number of seconds in each track. The cut length, of course, is completely dependent on where-when you pressed Apple-B.

<<<streaming over a local network >>> Still, we have a crusher network, and we still pull stuff over as files and play locally. If it's a busy network, there's going to be holes in the performance.
