Audacity Forum

Thank you for such a thorough response. I will go through all of the message fully in the next few days but for the meantime can you please tell me where you mean by track's information area? Thank you.

Hello Gale, Thank you. I am using Audacity 2.1.2 on both computers. They are both older computers that have been updated with Windows 10. I managed to update the driver for the personal computer without any issues (that I am aware of). I haven't attempted to update this on the laptop, as it is a vol...

Hello Gale,

I am using 2.1.2. Thank you. This has sorted it. I did do this before, but I obviously overlooked the tracks section here! Thank you.

Hello, I am using Audacity to look at Bat data. So very short HF files usually a couple of MB, lasting a couple of seconds. I have thousands of files to look through to determine if there are bat calls in each file. Each time I open up a WAV file in Audacity I have to change the preferences to be ab...

Hello, I am using a 64 bit operating system. I am using Audacity to look at Bat acoustic WAV files (upto 6MB), so very high frequency, short files. Sample rate is set at 384000. I have been using Audacity on a laptop and have not had any problems with playback. I have now downloaded Audacity on a co...

All I need to do is look at them and (ideally) change the prefix of the file name so files can be instantly recognisable by the species of bat within that recording. So I don't need t...

Hello, Thank you. I had no idea I was not able to delete, move or rename the WAV files. I started renaming them all with a prefix of the bat species recorded within that file. I have back ups. Why would I want to save an Audacity project? Rather than the WAV files? Thank you, this is really useful i...

When I first opened files there was a pop up that asked how I wanted to open the files, one option was with a duplicati...

I am looking at bat sound files, so using lots of very high frequency short WAV files. Every time I open up a file and close it within Audacity and open up a new file it open up Audacity in another window. So once I have finished going through for example 28 files, Audacity has opened up 28 times in...

Hello Wax cylinder,

Great! Thank you so much. That has worked.
