Unfortunately I don't understand Spanish well enough to be able to use a computer that has Spanish as the system language, but I've tested the underlying mechanism by setting a Ubuntu 18.04 system to French (system wide setting). I then installed Audacity 2.3.1 from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhand...

They all appear to be within ACX stated requirements The file “NEW CHAPTER FIFTEEN LAME ACX MCCD.mp3” is NOT within ACX stated requirements. The "Contrast" tool is Audacity's built-in effect for measuring RMS level. The reason that I suggested using "Contrast" is that it rules o...

I don't think that anyone in the Audacity team has Mountain Lion, so I doubt that we can do much about this unless we receive other reports of the same problem from other Mountain Lion users. I'll ask about this on the developer's mailing list, but in the meantime there are some workarounds that com...

Can I put all the plugins in the Package Contents Audacity app icon instead of the User Library? That is not recommended. The Package Contents should contain plug-ins that are shipped with Audacity.

it kept saying I did not have the correct installer for m4a files You need to be much more precise. What was the actual message (in full)? Then, when I tried to install the driver What exactly did you install? the app completely stopped working. You mean it would not launch, or it would launch and ...

the only time I can get the audio to convert is when I select "10%" of the audio to be converted, that gives me 17min of solid audio, however anything larger than that, and it seems like audacity just times out and gives up, possibly because the file size is too big. That's probably not t...

I wonder if anyone’s done a
sound comparison between the Zoom and mic alone vs. the same but with attached laptop...
