Re: I can't move a track forward or backward

By default, Audacity uses VBR encoding for MP3s (because VBR gives better quality for the same file size compared with CBR encoding). Some media players have trouble with VBR encoding, so it may be worth trying CBR encoding. To do that, in the Export dialog screen, select "Constant" as the...

Re: Cannot Enable Noisegate.ny Plugin

That looks OK and it works for me. I downloaded the newer version of Audacity. Now when I attempt to enable the plug-in I get a message "failed to register" and what appears to be "Ill-formed Nyquist plug-in header" What are the exact messages? In the Effect menu, do you see the ...

Re: Can I have a stereo track from one microphone?
