Re: Error Opening Sound Device

The first thing I'd suggest is to reboot the computer.

Re: connecting jingle palette to audacity

Re: Fabfilter VST failed to register

Normally, in Logic or other DAWs, when you add the plugin to a track, it pops up a screen to enter the product key and register. Anybody how to do this within Audacity? Audacity does not support any "digital rights" mechanisms. Any plug-ins have to be fully operational before they can be ...

Re: Fixing gaps caused by the time shift tool

I would like the blank spots to be filled with something that sounds like surrounding music, Thanks, that's what I guessed. What I am trying to do is correct the timing of a piece of music. Got it.
