This happens with 2.3.0 in MacOS 10.13.6, but not with the latest 64bit Audacity 2.3.1 alpha build.

Though I am not using High Sierra at present I have used it and found three things that helped on my MacBook Pro. You have probably tried the first two, but wanted to list them anyway. 1. Reduced the buffer length to 20ms. 2. Turn off App Nap - only applicable if using a laptop. 3. Turn off the disp...

Starting Audacity by double clicking on a file was broken in 2.1.3 in that Audacity didn't load the file even though it started. This has been fixed for 2.2.0 so this problem will go away when that comes out.

Thanks for the explanation. As it is it's an irritation that I can live with, but I suspect I will not be the only one who will feel that way and not the only one that will wonder "WHY?".

I see this when I have applied an effect then saved the project under a new name then exported the au...

Interesting. In the 3 times I've seen it I've not noticed it getting worse unless you mean more often which probably is the case here as well which really is strange if that is the case. My machine does have internet exposure, but I don't go to strange sites so wouldn't expect to have issues and vir...

I'll give it a try.

Do you think any change in the Audacity recording buffer would affect it? I'm running the buffer at 15ms right now.

In the last 6 months a very strange occurrence during recording has happened 3 times. A short segment of less than one second in length is repeated 3 or 4 times and the repeated segment gets longer and more clear with each repeat. I was there during the recording and the speaker did not do this. Thi...
