throwing two 6GB m2ts's in there is a pretty big hold.
You could use "File menu > Import > Audio" instead of drag and drop.

Re: Aud 2.3.2. 'Fit to Width' does not go full width of screen

its just one track causing this My guess is that there's a tiny bit of audio at the end of that track, which you can't see while zoomed out. If that's the case, the way to deal with it is: 1) Click the "Select" button in the panel on the left end of the track. The selection will automatic...

Re: uploaded music volume ( version 2.3.2 )

Import your music (from an audio file) into one track, and record your voice on a new track ("Shift + Record" or "Shift + R"). You can then make changes to one track without affecting the other.

Re: Recording Microphone and Application audio together

I was wondering if it's possible to record audio from multiple sources at the same time, for example: recording my microphone on one track while simultaneously recording Discord audio on another track.

Re: Dragging and dropping a file into Audacity in Windows locks up Explorer

Why is Audacity the only program that acts this way? My guess would be that that wxWidgets is using the native file browser process to read the file, rather than using the file browser to pass only the name and location of the selected file, AND, the file browser in Windows 10 only runs a single th...
