I presume that you have tried using "File menu > Open"?

Please post the AUP file so that we can take a look at it (see: viewtopic.php?f=49&t=64936)

Yes you can create ACX compatible MP3s with Audacity (requires Lame to be installed as you rightly said). However, you should also keep your backup copy as an exported WAV file. MP3 encoding always reduces the sound quality to some extent. Editing an MP3 and then exporting / encoding to MP3 reduces ...

Best way is to connect the mic before you launch Audacity. Normally Audacity will only look for audio devices on launch. If you connect the mic after starting Audacity, you will need to tell Audacity to look for audio devices. You can do that from "Transport menu > Rescan audio devices".

Digital audio has discrete time divisions. At a sample rate of 44100 Hz, theses time divisions are 1/44100 th second = 0.000022676 s. 0.000219 seconds = 0.000219 x 44100 sample periods = 10 sample periods (or 9, depending on how you round). Note that this must be an integer value because PCM digital...
