Audacity Forum

Now I'm very satisfied, because one problem has gone. “DBConnection.cpp” was fixed in todays update of flatpak. That's great news :) Could be something wrong with /tmp folder as I saw at other forum Possibly a permissions / sandbox issue? By default, Audacity (as written in the official Audacity Gi...

BUT AUDACITY VER 3.0.0 HAS PROBLEMS WITH THIS PLUGIN. The "Vocal Reduction and Isolation" effect has a compatibility problem with Audacity 3.0.0. I've fixed it for the next Audacity release. For most people it's probably best to wait for the next release, but for the more technically mind...

I just updated to 3.0 ona windows 10 machine and its taking it over 20 minutes to open an old file! Run a thorough anti-virus scan on your computer, then disconnect from the Internet and try running Audacity with your anti-virus disabled. If that enables Audacity to run properly, then you need to c...
