Isn't that what the "meters" do? https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/meter_toolbar.html

There is no option to change that. Why do you need to?

I’m wondering if there is anyway that I can get my audio back at all? Probably not. Try restarting Audacity - if Audacity offers to recover the project, then you may be lucky, but my guess is that the project has totally gone and is lost forever. I tried clicking “cancel” when Audacity was cleaning...

I'd guess that (a) you're using an old / obsolete version of Audacity, and (b) the directory where Audacity is trying to write the recording is not writeable.

Does that just add up the channels?

It probably depends on the audio device drivers, but with well behaved drivers it will pass the left channel only if the device is a 2 channel (stereo) device, and for mono devices will pass the one channel without modification.

I still don't get why it does not behave the same in Nyquist Prompt I've only looked briefly at your code, but I notice that it does not clean up after itself. With the following modification, you can see that the only time that the *scratch* properties are removed, is on first run (and the propert...

Is there any possibility to have more than 700 pixels via Nyquist ? Unfortunately, the 700 pixel limit is hard coded into Audacity. Given that many displays are a lot bigger than that, I agree that 700 pixels is a bit on the small side. I'll ask the developer of this feature if he'd be happy for me...

For people that are familiar with Nyquist / Lisp, it is a lot more comfortable to read code that is indented appropriately. The forum software strips leading white-space unless [code ][ /code] tags are used. To enter code tags, use the "</>" button (rather than the "text color" t...

Because Audacity is a cross-platform program, it uses a cross-platform toolkit ( wxWidgets ) to create platform specific controls (such as the file browser). I doubt that the Audacity developers will want to write a custom file dialog for Windows, given that the file dialogs created by wxWidgets wor...

If this is for importing audio files, you can drag and drop audio files from File Explorer into an Audacity project.
