Yes i am having the same issue. I also feel os.pth certainly has a bug

Which Python script are you referring to?

My iMic has finally given up the ghost, I was hoping fellow Audacity users could point me in the direction of an inexpensive alternative (UK only). What do you want to plug into the audio device? The UCA-202 that waxcylinder posted is suitable for "line level" signals, such as CD players,...

Are there any other tools to analyze what is going on there?

Try the track spectrogram view: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/spe ... _view.html

If the project contains more than one audio track, the tracks are added together ("mixing" = "adding") on export. The "Track gain" sliders affect both the playback level in Audacity, and the level in the exported files. (see: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/audio_tr...

However, after shutting off the pc and checking this issue again the problem went away. The web browser add-on "flash player" was notorious for doing that. Even after a web page with flash content was closed, flash could still be running and keeping an audio stream active even though ther...

what is the correct 'do_commands' for setting a range and adding a label to it? To select from 10 to 15 seconds and add a label: SelectTime:End="15" RelativeTo="ProjectStart" Start="10" AddLabel: Note that the commands for Python scripting are the same as Macro command...

Audacity will not let me use the : in the title. The colon character is a "reserved character" on Windows and must not be used in file names. See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file But this is required by ACX. Not according to this page: https://blog.acx....

Maybe a silly question, but I am not seeing how to install these plug-ins?

These are "Nyquist plug-ins". Installation instructions for Audacity on Windows are here: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/ins ... st_install

Is there no way to copy the selection of a new project/file?

Not with a macro, and as far as I'm aware that has never been possible in Audacity. Why would you want to do that?

Maybe there is a plugin that implements a differential function (dv/dt) that will convert the positive edges to positive values and then measure the difference in time between the positive values to get the period, and thus the frequency? I think there's a plug-in somewhere that counts zero crossin...
