I think your best options are either:
1. Edit out ("delete") the parts with voices. This will result in a much shorter track, but you could copy/paste it multiple times.
2. Look for a better recording (without voices) on-line (for example: https://freesound.org)

I've tried Widows Direct Sound - this gives no error but also no recordable sound MME - the same as above WASPI - gives a -9997 sample rate error (but altering the sample rate has no effect) "MME" is the best choice. "Direct Sound" is emulated in Windows Vista and later (under t...

I would love it if a work-around could be devised.... What are your spreadsheet skills like? It appears to be completely possible to convert the CSV into Audacity labels using a spreadsheet (such as LibreOffice Calc, or MS Excel). Unfortunately my spreadsheet skill are minimal and I would have to G...

That's very interesting. Today, I recorded the vocal segments of my podcast on a signal track as usual. Are all the clips one after another on the same track, or each clip on its own track?

See here for how to attach a file to a forum post: https://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=64936 I think the forum will allow...

If you ever work out what went wrong, please do let us know.

I am aware that the noise gate has RAM limitations on long tracks, is the same now true for the limiter? It is right now, but it shouldn't be (it's a bug). In fact the same problem currently affects most Nyquist effects. The developers are looking into it and hope to have it fixed for Audacity 3.0.1.

You can get the number of tracks and track types from "GetInfo: Type=Tracks".

Normally Audacity will clean up after itself and delete any unused .au files. Of course that won't happen if Audacity crashes, of if the computer loses power, or the computer is shut down. I can't think of many situations where you could end up with a .aup that does not list any .au files and still ...
