Plot Spectrum uses FFT analysis, which is an "all or nothing" kind of thing, in that the analysis will always be from DC (0 Hz) to half the sample rate (the Nyquist frequency). I agree that it would be useful to be able to zoom in on the data. When I need to do that sort of thing, I use Gn...

I'm curious to know if, once the sample rate has been set to 48000 in the sound control panel, will it then w...

make distclean to clean everything including "configure" Then run configure again, adding --with-portaudio=local to the configure options. For example, for a debug build that will work with ffmpeg ../configure CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11" --disable-dynamic-loading --with-portaudio=lo...

Did you follow these instructions to the letter: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/installing_and_updating_audacity_on_windows.html#winff If not, please try that (don't click on any big green download buttons - the actual d...

Use a "text to speech" application.
