Audacity Forum

Thanks Bill, I really appreciate it!

As to why 32000... that was totally an oversight on my part. It seems Zoom is saving audio recordings in 32000hz and when that was the first file I imported into Audacity, I think it matched the project sample rate to the file I imported, and I didn't notice.

Certainly.

Project is 32,000Hz.
Track 1 (recorded voice into Audacity) is stereo 32,000Hz.
Track 2 (imported WAV) is mono 32,000Hz.
Track 3 (imported MP3) is stereo 44,100Hz.

To trigger the crash, try re-arranging the tracks and/or adjusting the gain on the MP3 track.

Yes, they typically do. They're also typically a mixture of mono and stereo tracks.

janeansh is not the OP. I was responding to the OP.

Created a new thread anyway.

I'm seeing a repeatable (though somewhat inconsistent) crash when importing and manipulating an MP3 alongside other voice tracks. OS X 10.15.6 Audacity 2.4.2 Steps to reproduce are not always consistent, but here's what I was doing yesterday. I repeated these steps right now afresh, and it crashes a...

OS X 10.15.6 Audacity 2.4.2 Steps to reproduce are not always consistent, but here's what I was doing yesterday. I repeated these steps right now afresh, and it crashes again. 1. Import WAV into...
