Re: Audacity Frozen stiff

12.9.4.x is the latest version, and it has recently been found to have a problem ("possibly" unrelated) with M4A files. I also did a test of a .wav file not from iTunes, which looked like it was going to work, but it froze, too, when I tried to export it to mp3. Did you close (shut down) A...

Re: Bass and Treble greyed out?

Perhaps one of those effects is already open, possibly hidden behind another window, or moved to the edge of the display?

Re: MP3 to MIDI

There's a program called "AudioScore" that claims to be able to convert audio into MIDI, but it has a price tag of around $200. The problem is that to create MIDI from audio, each note has to be identified by pitch and duration, as if you were writing a musical score. "MIDI" is N...

Re: ACC file time is changing to 789:57:13

I've raised this issue with the Audacity team. As far as I can tell, this is an iTunes bug because the M4A files produced by "Audacity 2.3.1", "VinylStudio", and "Switch Sound File Converter Plus", all appear to be valid M4A files, and they work fine in VLC, QuickTime, ...

Re: Audacity Frozen stiff

That's the most likely scenario, one which I have done successfully many times. Is there something inherently wrong with that? The problem you described has been reported a couple of times very recently, and coincides with a recent iTunes update. Perhaps that's a coincidence, or perhaps not - that'...

Re: Audacity / M-Audio Compaibility

Unfortunately, the drivers for the M-Audio M-Track present multiple 2 channel devices rather than one multi-channel device. Currently, Audacity can only record from one device at a time, so that limits you to 2 channel recording. You may be able to record multiple channels at the same time with othe...

Re: Someone is selling Audacity on Ebay

Although, in my opinion, selling open source software while contributing nothing themselves, is parasitic and unethical, it is not actually illegal to sell open source software. I would encourage any buyers to complain in the strongest possible terms to ebay about the deception.
