Re: Audacity Issue with Network User accounts

Do you know where the audacity.cfg file is originally copied from? I'd like to edit it so any new users have the directory set, rather then having to edit every user. Do you have experience programming? The default path for the temp directory is hard coded into this file: https://github.com/audacit...

Open the audacity.cfg file in a plain text editor. By default it is located at ~/Library/Application Support/audacity/

Re: Chain Processing + Find Sound + Export Multiple
