Sorry, I only now found dracconi had that mic This is the problem with tagging onto the end of someone else's topic - the problem may seem similar, but usually the details are different, so very often the similarity is only superficial and the cause / solution can be totally different.

Re: Locking Up, Not Crashing.

One possibility that has been reported by some users, is that some anti-virus / security products can interfere with Audacity by scanning all of the "AU" data files that Audacity produces. When processing a long track, Audacity can create thousands of AU data files, so not surprisingly, if...

You would need to dig into the Nyquist programming language code (http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs.cmu.edu/project/music/web/music.software.html) t...
