Yes—adjacent. I believe you can shovel projects between different versions and different OSs. But. Project do not save UNDO. So you can't "perfectly" and "seamlessly" go back and forth. There is another problem of config. Audacity has a mode of operation where it references exter...

I have an H4. The fuzzy idea is the external preamps are trash but the built-in mics are OK. About a year ago I did a system update so it could use larger memory cards. If the recording is too long, that's not dropout or other shortcoming in recording. Those produce short recordings. That could be b...

Just a note: If you settle Chrome on a web page heavy with graphics, animations and interactive data generation, you could have it taking 100% of your processor.

Loud voices will cause overload, clipping, distortion and crunchy sound—but only when you're talking. The left waves are more or less normal an...

Can you see your show all scrunched up over on the left? I'm sure there are fancy-pants ways to do this, but I would drag-select a bunch of that blank timeline and delete it. Command-F (Zoom Full). Drag more > Delete > Command-F. It should take you about four or five passes to get it down to the sho...
