Audacity Forum

"File menu > Export > Export Audio..." (rather than "Export WAV")
Select "WAV (Microsoft) signed 24-bit PCM" and export.

The next time you select "Export Audio" (shortcut "Ctrl + Shift + E"), it should remember the last used settings.

For some reason whenever I open the Mixer the program crashes. This seems to only happen when I have a Midi file loaded.

Unfortunately this appears to be a new bug in Audacity 2.3.0. I shall log it on the bug tracker.

I'm just going to skip 2.3.0 in the hope that 2.4 will work better. Audacity 2.3.0 should only be used on Windows and Mac. We had the Linux tarball (marked as "Experimental") for a short while, but too many people were installing it as a "production" version, so we have now remo...

"Secure Empty Trash" only works with spinning disk drives, and has apparently been removed from recent versions of macOS (https://www.macworld.com/article/300579 ... pitan.html)

We've seen quite a few people on this forum that are desperate to recover projects that they have deleted. I don't ...

The "string to list" trick is neat (and I've never seen "eval-string" before, but it seems like a little "Code is Data" Lisp magic). "eval-string" is very new and not yet documented, except for in the code: https://github.com/audacity/audacity/blob/master/nyq...

Which version of Windows?
Which version of Audacity? (look in "Help > About Audacity")

Ps. Much thanks to the developers of the Nyquist Generate Prompt!

With Audacity 2.3.0, the Nyquist Generate Prompt has become redundant. You can just use the Nyquist Prompt (now in the new "Tools" menu, and add the header:

A list may be passed to Nyquist as a string. For example, to pass a list of number (for a public plug-in, you should validate the input, but here I'll just demonstrate the list)... ;version 4 ;type tool ;; IMPORTANT: Requires Audacity 2.3.0 (or later) ;control numbers "Space separated list of n...
