Re: How is noise generated?

No, that is nonsense. I'd suggest that you learn about acoustics and signal processing before telling others of your uniformed opinions. This article is Wikipedia is a reasonable place to start: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_noise For a more advanced article, there is this article available fr...

Re: How is noise generated?

white noise is a discrete signal whose samples are regarded as a sequence of serially uncorrelated random variables with zero mean and finite variance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_noise To put that into layman's terms, it's a series of random sample values. For a detailed understanding, see ...

Re: Compiles and Runs but not on another computer

I'm not able to test s I'm not on Windows, but my guess is that there are some ASIO DLLs that need to be installed / available, which are available on the build machine because you installed the ASIO SDK, but not one the other machines.

Re: Compiles and Runs but not on another computer

Have you added the wxWidgets DLLs to the ZIP / installer?
To make a build that can be installed on other computers, this page may be useful: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Release_Process/Win
Please note that due to license terms, ASIO builds must not be distributed - own use only.

Re: No option for "always record new track" on preferences m

I am running the latest(?) 2.1.2 Audacity on Ubuntu 17.10 That may be the latest version in the Ubuntu Software Center, but the latest release of Audacity is 2.2.2. The on-line manual is for the current (2.2.2) release version, so you will notice some differences between the on-line manual and the ...

Re: Choppy Recording in latest version

If you are recording a voice over while playing a game, it's generally best to use software that is specifically designed for the task. Such software is designed to work with the game audio, whereas Audacity struggles to get access to audio resources because they are being used by another applicatio...

Re: Correcting speeding up/slowing down...forced to stay on

2. (More importantly) does anyone know if any software can correct this…like ah…stretch/compress the video/(or just)audio tracks so a consistent beat is maintained? That's called "tempo quantize". Audacity doesn't have that, but most of the big "DAW" applications (such as Cubase...

Re: Win10 2.2.2 Playing and recording at the same time?

Audacity does not do video, but it can play the audio from a video file (many common video formats). To import the audio from a video file, you need to have FFmpeg installed. Instructions are here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/installing_and_updating_audacity_on_windows.html#winff By default, ...

Re: Audio Tracks flatlined all of a sudden

Any other suggestions? Re-check that it is actually Audacity 2.2.2 that is running and not a previous version ("Audacity menu > About Audacity"). If you upgraded to 2.2.2 from an earlier version, it may even be worth completely removing Audacity from your machine and doing a fresh install...
