Try running this code in the Nyquist Prompt effect (http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/ny ... rompt.html):

I am using VS 2015 but I set Platform Toolset to VS 2013 (v120) build option. I don't develop on Windows, but I don't think that will work. The win/compile.txt document specifies "Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 C++", and as far as I'm aware that document is up to date. https://github.com/au...

If we had dB markings in the normal ("linear") waveform view, it should look something like this: _ 0.0 |_ -3 |_ -6 |_ -12 | |_ -45 | |_ -infinity ______________________ | |_-45 | |_ -12 |_ -6 |_ -3 |_ 0.0 Notice how the numbers are close together near the top/bottom of the track, and bigg...

Labels have a weak "snapping" effect (see: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/au ... tml#snapto)
You could create "regular interval labels" http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/re ... abels.html

I "think" so too from what I have seen buried in libsndfile.

Definitely is - I'm awake now

So who is correct here? :? Well I'm guilty of adding to the confusion :mrgreen: LPCM is generally used for low bit-rate/low quality audio. No. That's wrong. I'd not had my second cup of tea of the day. "PCM" is an abbreviation for "Pulse-code modulation". There are many differen...

LPCM is related to PCM but is not the same. LPCM is generally used for low bit-rate/low quality audio.
Standard audio CDs use PCM, not LPCM.

I had to restart a 15 minute recording several times to get through it. Why was that? What went wrong? I sometimes get Audacity freezing when I set it to use PulseAudio. This is a known issue on Linux and there are several workarounds. The workaround that I use is to bypass PulseAudio by recording ...

After editing in Audacity, export as "WAV (Microsoft) signed 16-bit PCM". In you CD burning application, ensure that you select "Audio CD" (not "data CD"). Check that the files play correctly before you make the CD. If the CD has playback problems but the WAV files play...
