Re: Constant crashes

no other desktop app Including your web browser? That's caught me out a couple of times when there was a page loaded but not visible that contained media, and a browser plug-in was using Pulse. Note also that when Audacity first opens, it scans the sound system, including Pulse, so Pulse will be ac...

why did the sc4_1882.dll plugin disappear from the plugins folder in Audacity 2.3.1 alpha?
Because it is obsolete.

Re: Constant crashes

pasuspender shouldn't be necessary. All that does is to suspend (temporarily disable) PulseAudio, but if nothing is using PulseAudio it will suspend itself anyway without pasuspender. Note that if Pulse Audio Volume Control is open, the PulseAudio is active and will grab exclusive control of your so...

Here's the file.
I think that's a very old configuration file (possibly from the Audacity 1.3.x series?)

Removing the three files has fixed the problem. 2.3.0 appears to be running properly now.
Excellent :D

Re: Startup Problems with Audacity 2.3.0 on 10.12.6

What about plugins.cfg? That's not a standard configuration file for Audacity, though it could perhaps be from a really old version of Audacity :? Please attach the file to your reply so I can take a look (see here for how to attach a file to a forum post: https://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.p...

Re: Using Logitech H390 headset with Mac 10.13.6 Sierra

The Logitech H390 is a budget headset that cost considerably less than any "studio quality" headphones or microphone (and it has both headphones and a mic). While Logitech stuff usually provides good value for money, I would not expect great results recording with a mic / headset in the $2...

Re: Startup Problems with Audacity 2.3.0 on 10.12.6

It sounds like Audacity is being confused by references to old plug-ins in its settings files. Try resetting the Audacity preferences. To do that, find the folder: ~/Library/Application Support/audacity/ (where "~/" means your home folder) When you get the correct folder you will see sever...

Re: 0sx 10.14 compatibility

Audacity 2.3.0 works on Mojave, though Apple will nag you about it being a 32-bit app. Just dismiss the nag screen when it appears.
It is planned for the next release to be 64-bit on macOS (so Audacity 2.3.0 will be the end of the line for anyone still using a 32-bit Mac).

Re: Export to project directory

Is it possible to set audacity preferences to have the export directory be the same as the directory containing the project file? Short answer, no. Longer answer: Audacity will attempt to use whatever export folder you used last time for exporting. So if you have all of your projects in: ~/Music/au...
