If you are using Audacity 2.3.1, and the currently selected track has the right number of audio channels (mono or stereo), clicking the record button will start recording at the cursor position, or the end of the track, whichever is the later. If you wish to record before the end of the track, you n...

The first thing you need is a version of Audacity that has "mod-script-pipe". It is planned to include mod-script-pipe in the next Audacity release. If you don't have mod-script-pipe, then there is a pre-release "alpha" version available here: https://www.fosshub.com/Audacity-dev...

Also, please give me good tutorial for jack, USB microphone and latency in Ubuntu Studio. Ensure that Jack starts and runs well without any xruns.

I'm not sure that you've got the right Plug-ins folder. It should look like this: Screenshot_2019-04-24_15-40-42.png In the Plug-in Manager, click on "Path" at the top of the table to sort the plug-ins by their location, then scroll down to where the path matches where you put the plug-in....
