Re: Windows 7 & Audacity 2.1.2

But we do see at one point in the log: 21:45:50: User-specified path = 'C:\Program Files\FFmpeg for Audacity\avformat-55.dll' 21:45:50: User-specified FFmpeg file exists. Success. Well spotted, but as you say, there's something wrong with what's in there as it then says: 21:45:50: Error: Failed to ...

Re: Simultaneously Make and Record a Sound?

To do that you need to "overdub". First you record, import or generate the sound that you want to play so that it exists as a track in Audacity. Ensure that "Overdub" is enable in the Transport menu and "Software Playthrough" is disabled in the same menu. Then record. N...

Re: Spectral selection labels

That's probably because nobody knew about it. I don't recall the developer ever mentioning it.

Re: Spectral selection labels

I'm not sure what you mean by spectral selection "labels", but "spectral selection" is described in the manual here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/sp ... ction.html

Re: Windows 7 & Audacity 2.1.2

Look in C:\Program Files\ Is there a folder called FFmpeg for Audacity If not (and I suspect not), uninstall your current version of FFmpeg and follow the first set of instructions here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/faq_installation_and_plug_ins.html#winff The text has highlighting and links...

Re: Move some export preferences into export interface

Once recorded, B-sides become irrelevant. CD's have no B-side and unless you were recording back to cassette, the info "B-side" no longer has any use. What I mean is: If you have an album on tape or Vinyl and it has 7 tracks on "side A" and 6 tracks on "side B". If you...

Re: Equalization - 'length of filter' selections changed

Re: Move some export preferences into export interface

just enter the common metadata once at the expected time when the metadata editor pops up. In 1.2.6 it doesn't pop up. It has to be opened by the user prior to export. That option is available in the current version of Audacity. I suggest we actually pay attention to the 60 or so votes we have for ...
