Re: Cannot launch Audacity 2.3.0 in Windows 8

Re: clipping

How does audacity represent audio in memory? As 32-bit floating point numbers. how is it possible to have a peak amplitude of 100 dB without exceeding the 32 bits per sample? 0 dB is represented by the values +/- 1.0 Floating point numbers may greater or smaller than 1.0 Will this amplification dis...

Re: Noise reduction

It depends on the kind of background noise, and how loud the background noise is. See: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/noi ... ction.html

Audacity requires "Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 " which may not be present on older Windows systems. You can get it from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-ie/downloa ... x?id=48145
