Re: Compiler Does't find defs.h and zconf.h

You need to follow the instructions more closely: https://github.com/audacity/audacity/blob/Audacity-2.3.0/win/build.txt I'd suggest that you: 1) completely delete your current attempt (uninstall WxWidgets 3.0.3 and then delete the WxWidgets and Audacity source code, and then reboot). 2) read throug...

Re: Problems recording samples from Spotify on macOS [SOLVED]

Thanks for the update. I'll close this topic now as it provides a confirmed solution. To summarize: The problem: Mac computers have no built-in ability to record sounds that are playing on the computer. The solution: Install "iShowU Audio Capture" from https://support.shinywhitebox.com/hc/...

Re: FLAC/libFLAC 1.3.2 20170101

Not yet, though several other libraries have been updated, the version of MSVC has been updated, and the Mac version is getting an update to 64-bit. With limited resources, it's a question of priorities.

Re: Repairing/cleaning up corrupted audio

I would recommend that both of you guys update Audacity at your earliest convenience. A lot of work has gone into the last couple of version to make them more robust against disk write problems (may help to avoid similar problems in the future). The current version is 2.3.0 and is available via the ...

I've also tried to simply record a brand new track in a brand new project and ONLY apply equalization
Does it crash if you apply the Equalization effect directly (not from a Chain / Macro)?

Re: Problems recording samples from Spotify on macOS

SoundFlower That is extremely old / obsolete, and in my experience it's not very stable on modern Macs. There's a much newer version called "iShowU Audio Capture" (Note this is not our product and we don't provide technical support for other people's software, but here's the link: https:/...

I just experienced this same problem, the last 2 hours of a 7 hour recording sounds just like your sample. It appears that I might have been running low on disk space. Very frustrating, but live and learn. I guess.
Which version of Audacity?

I take it as a compliment to be considered an "advanced user" :) You're welcome :) MakeAbsolute(); Nice :geek: I thought there must be something like that in WxWidgets but I couldn't find it. I think the same approach should work for Windows and Mac, in which case I think this would be a ...
