Audacity Forum

I have tried searching, but I either cannot find the right info or I am just too dense to understand this. The documentation, and many posts on this forum, clearly state that Audacity uses 32-bit float for internal processing, and it is strongly suggested that we not change that in the Quality setti...

Sorry to pick your brains again, but do you know of a Windows music player that does not insist on building a library from your tracks? All I want to do is play single tracks (MP3, FLAC, WAV) that I have Exported from Audacity to check they are all right. I want these to be kept separate from any L...

Thank you very much for your replies - it is pretty much what I expected. I was just hoping that there might me a control file somewhere that I could edit to stop one of the duplicates. Oh well... It is a very simple matter to edit the comments in MusicBee and delete the second half of the comment. ...

I have a problem with Audacity creating duplicate copies of any comments I have in the metadata comments field when exporting a file. Is there a simple way to find the cause and stop it?

Obviously, if you are m...

Thank you, waxcylinder, that is excellent information. Now that I know others have seen the automatic recovery work in 2.2.2, it is easier for me to just assume my autosave file was simply corrupted during the power outage - just my poor luck that it happened the first time I needed it, and after se...

I appreciate your response, but I HAVE a good clean copy of the .wav source file - that has nothing to do with the issue of Audacity not recognizing the file type for its own backup. After all, the manual does specifically state that the autosave file allows Audacity to "automatically recover unsave...

I am using Audacity 2.2.2 in Windows 10 to edit wav files from LP and cassette captures. I am not very experienced with Audacity - until recently I did all the editing with Sound Forge AS9. So far, I do not have any issues the the functions of Audacity, but I have a problem following a power outage ...
