Let us know how this turns out.

I realize my instructions are often a bit "long in the tooth" but I never like to assume the reader's (who might not always be you) knowledge and experience level.

Re: Join 2 long recordings- easier way?

I've reviewed the manual and can't find the answer to my question. I want to make 40 min or so recordings on different topics. The last half of each recording is the same however, and I'd like to add the same second half to each topic's first half. Is there an easier way to join the two halves othe...

Re: Improving the overall usability

How could we get somehow more involved with the developers and make this easier for us and helpful to you? As of tomorrow, Audacity is due to be in "code freeze" prior to the release of Audacity 2.0 Audacity has been in "feature freeze" (e.g. no functional changes to GUI and no ...

Re: Dropped/lost audio during transfers of archival audio ta

Sure. It's Audacity 1.3.14-beta (Unicode). That is certainly new enough not to be an upgrade problem. If Steve's suggestion does not help, I would next think about drivers and OS updates. I would also suggest you make sure that (in the same Transport menu) Overdub & Software Playthrough are bot...

Re: Dropped/lost audio during transfers of archival audio ta

Give us the complete version number for the Audacity you are using on the new machine. On Audacity's Help menu choose item About Audacity... a dialog will open and look something like: buildInfo.png we need everything after the Audacity (R) on that line. I had exactly the same problem on my "ne...

Re: expand on Norm's new track name in display

Unfortunately I'm getting a segmentation fault when I try to use the feature. I cannot get a stable Squeeze build of default Audacity but will try again (but probably not 'til tomorrow). Perhaps you could tell me, is the background colour of the "Font" button the same as the background co...

Re: reset Preferences CFG file

Resetting Audacity will also clear the Recent File list I had to work really hard to figure out how to clear Recent Files and it ends up really simple to keep the Recent File list along with "NewPrefsInitialized=1". Saving it could be a checkbox... cbox.png ...but we are getting close to ...

Re: reset Preferences CFG file

resetPrefs3 now does incremental backup of the current Prefs CFG file before initializing. You will have files with names like: audacityCFG7Feb2012_01_36_46.bak with the part: 7Feb2012_01_36_46 being: day-of-the-month_month_year_hour_minute_second which should give us sufficient granularity. Save &a...

Re: expand on Norm's new track name in display

I added the SVN version to the name. I made one cosmetic change from 10 as suggested by Gale on -devel: http://audacity.238276.n2.nabble.com/Should-display-track-name-in-waveform-pane-td7166344i20.html#a7259141 although my wording differs slightly: newWording.png sizeColorFamily11-edR11463.patch not...

Possibly a bit too tricky for me
I have some errands to do today but after "a while" (today sometime) I will post an 11-ed patch against SVN HEAD as of that time.
