Re: plugin popouts

On all machines that I have used (going back to very old XP machines), all of Audacity's built-in effects, and all plug-ins that are shipped with Audacity, open virtually instantly. Third party plug-ins should do the same, but if they don't then that's a problem with the plug-in. Personally I think ...

Re: Hot key for "Undo".

This is not an Audacity issue. It is not recommended to use numpad keys for shortcuts in any Windows software. The numpad keys are handled differently by Windows than "normal keys", and should be reserved for numeric entry, ALT codes, and functions defined by the keyboard (whatever functio...

Re: WRITE-PROTECT

Official release versions of Audacity do not directly use the Windows registry. There is an option when Audacity is first installed, that asks if you want to associate Audacity Projects with Audacity. If you select "Yes", then Audacity sets a registry entry that associates .AUP files with ...

Re: the keyboard shortcut to select the entire track currently being operated

There are three parts to a selection: The start time The end time A track list (may be one or more tracks) Note that currently, there can only be one start time, and one end time, regardless of the number of tracks selected, so if you want to select multiple tracks that have different lengths, then ...

Re: My 1.3 Gbyte WAV file won't Import

Do smaller files created by the L53 import correctly into Audacity?

The current version of Audacity is 2.2.2 (Audacity 2.3.0 is due to be released in a few weeks) and is available via the Audacity website: https://www.audacityteam.org/download/

Re: Compiling 2.2.2 in Windows 10 for use with ASIO

I agree with roadsterUK's comments, but would add: build Audacity 2.2.2. There's a nasty bug in 2.2.0 and 2.2.1 , which is fixes in 2.2.2. Also, Audacity 2.3.0 is due to be released in a few weeks, by which time the changes to the build process should have all been ironed out and documented. So when...

Re: Arrow keys fail to nudge cursor

1. 2.0.2 seems to be latest I can download. I did feel this was a bit odd. However, the Audacity download page explains that they are behind on Mac updates Where are you looking? The official Audacity website download page always has the latest version for Mac, which is currently Audacity 2.2.2 htt...
