The upper frequency limit of digital audio is half the sample rate. For a sample rate of 44100 Hz (44.1 kHz), the absolute limit of frequencies that are supported is 22050 Hz (22.05 kHz). In practice, the limit is a little lower (around 20 kHz). For higher audio frequencies (ultrasonic), you need to...

You can reset the Audacity preferences by deleting the file "audacity.cfg" (the file is recreated with default settings on next launch of Audacity). See here for step by step instructions: https://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?p=356191#p356191 (In your case, you only need to delete ...

the slider is locked at max when I am running Mate.

That's normal.

To set the level, click on the recording meter (so as to activate the recording stream), then set the level in PulseAudio Volume Control (may be called "Sound Settings" or something similar).

Yes, that's what I was suggesting previously: If plug-ins are put into an Audacity specific plug-in location, then they are enabled by d...

reopen the Noise Reduction effect window
