Re: Activate effects on tracks in the Mixer

how can I select a track in Mixer Board for an effect to be applied to? You can select a track for an effect to be applied to, by clicking on the track icon in the Mixer Board.

Being a radio stream, it should have fragments and metadata everywhere in the file, right?
Yes, but a correctly formed MP4 file requires a correctly formed file header.

Re: 16-bit wave to MP3 320kbps; Dither or Not

I normally leave dither enabled ("shaped") all of the time. When exporting to MP3, dither will have a negligible effect whether enabled or disabled. Strictly speaking, dither is unnecessary in the case that you describe, so you can turn it off if you want to. Personally, I'm unconvinced th...

Re: Audacity macro-palette pushes around my shortcuts on a regular basis. [CLOSED]

Thanks for the update.
I'll close this topic for now. If the problem reappears, just start a new topic and add a link to this one (In "Quick Links" near the top left of each page, there's a link to "Your Posts" so you can easily find your old posts).

It looks like you are trying to update (re-save) a project that no longer exists in the folder "C:\Users\Utilisateur\Desktop\son". (Perhaps you moved or deleted it?) To save the project, select "File menu > Save Project > Save Project As... " Then browse to a suitable location, e...
