Having now worked for a couple of days with this (and hours and hours previously), I have to say I find it maddening. Here I've got snippets of voice on 4 tracks which require me to align them, and then with further editing to slide one to the right or left in a way that doesn't move whats to the l...

If all or part of several contiguous clips are selected, the TST will move all of them in sync with each other, but clips which have no part selected will remain in place. So to move all the clips to the right of a particular time to the right, select only those clips and use the TST to slide all o...

Harry: When you export to WAV or AIF, it is always done at 16-bit, and at the current project rate. Setting your project rate to anything other than 44100 will result in files that cannot be burned to a standard audio CD. Setting your default project format to 32-bit float will result in the highest...

Create a new project. Set Quality Prefs to 44100 16 bit (not strictly necessary, but demonstrates that problem is not with export). Generate 10 seconds tone, amplitude 1.0. Export to WAV. Delete track. Set Quality Prefs to 44100 24 bit. Import the 10 second tone file. You get this:

Here is the Registry entry. OK, this tells us that your default project format was 44100 Hz 24-bit. I have confirmed with 1.3.10-alpha-Nov 1 2009 that importing a 16-bit WAV or AIF file into a project where the default sample rate is 44100 and default sample format is 24 bits will cause this proble...

Can anyone help me with how to delete a project? The delete command in the edit drop down menu just seems to delete the recording but not the project folder. Editng the folder name would also work but i have no idea how to do that. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. You want to remove the proje...

Will Analyse > Plot Spectrum do what you need?

I need to convert mp3 files to 11025 hz so I change the rate to that and set the speed to 270. Don't change the sample rate using the track drop-down menu. That will change the speed of the track. It's there mostly (I think) for cases where a track was imported at the wrong rate. If you want to cha...

Bill - You say that you think the old 1.2.6 file is buried in there somewhere? Tell me how to find it, and I will send it to you. I have looked around quite a bit and don't see it. Where does XP keep its old backup copies of the Registry? I'll have to leave this to Steve to answer. I'm a Mac guy, a...
