I'm changing back to the old computer/old audacity

Have you tried old computer / new Audacity (or is your old computer too old to run Audacity 2.3.1?)

Like on latest versions of aimp. Is there a feature like this or is it planned? Maybe through plugins? Can't be done with a plug-in because plug-ins run inside Audacity, and if Audacity is in the background, then the plug-in is also running in the background, and key presses are "eaten" b...

I presume that you are referring to "pipe_test.py" ? https://github.com/audacity/audacity/blob/master/scripts/piped-work/pipe_test.py Is there likely to be any implications doing this? "pipe_test.py" is only intended as a test to check that scripting is working. Does the test wor...

There is a first level folder called "win"; it contains a text file: "compile.txt"

In the current source code it is called "build.txt" and it can be found here: https://github.com/audacity/audacity/bl ... /build.txt

Often I will inadvertently click on something on the left side of a track where it says -1 - 0 - +1 and the track goes wild. Like this? firsttrack000.png If so, it is because of two things: 1) You are using an old version of Audacity (the current Audacity 2.3.1 does not do this so easily) 2) You ac...

Well you could make a video file or DVD without the video stream (or just a still picture), but you can't do that directly in Audacity - you would need to use a video editing app.

The 64-bit version of LAME is only for 64-bit versions of Audacity. Audacity 2.1.0 is 32-bit and so requires the 32-bit version of LAME.

Audacity 2.3.1 for macOS is 64-bit, and is available via the Audacity website: https://www.audacityteam.org/download/mac/

It is possible to create audio files with multiple audio channels (as is used by 7.1 surround), but I've never heard of any audio players that provide the ability to switch between channels (other than editing software such as Audacity).

If you "only" want to apply noise reduction to a batch of files, it may be better to use a stand-alone noise reduction program rather than Audacity. (a few examples here: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/sample_workflow_for_lp_digitization.html#alternative) If you wish to perform automa...

"Recording & Playback" It's a little more complex than that. In the case of recording, whether or not the real-time conversion settings are used depends on exactly how you are recording, what you are recording, and the capabilities of the sound-card drivers. In the "usual case&qu...
