Re: Recovering Audacity files after Chkdsk disaster

For unedited recording it can (sometimes) be possible to put the pieces back together based on their time of creation, but I guess that the timestamps are missing too.

Re: Mp3 file duration and conversion to wav

The file that you attached is about 1 minute 39 seconds long, but it has damage of some kind that is causing only the first 0.078 seconds to open in Audacity.

Re: Problem importing key bindings to 2.1.0 or 2.1.1

If you find the small meters difficult to see, and if you don't mind losing the screen space, you can also drag the meters out of their dock position, resize them to double height, and re-dock them. You can also leave them floating by the side of the main Audacity window and/or resize them so that t...

Re: Trim Silence

Thanks for testing. The only query I have is: why does it have a grayed out preview button? If preview is not appropriate for this plug-in then why don't we just lose it from the dialog? I agree that it would be preferable to lose the Preview button completely rather than just grey it out, but that'...

Re: Remove specific windows sounds

Probably not possible to remove those sounds other than by "cutting them out" by editing. It may be possible to make those sounds quieter, but that may require a lot of work on your part. If you think it's worth the effort, feel free to post a short sample of each sound that you are wantin...

Unfortunately you haven't.
Instructions for how to post audio samples are here: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... 49&t=72887
(short, high quality WAV or FLAC samples are generally best).

Re: Problem importing key bindings to 2.1.0 or 2.1.1

There were significant changes between 2.0.6 and 2.1.0 (hence the jump in the version number). Unfortunately, a consequence was incompatibility with older keybinding XML files. From the release notes for Audacity 2.1.0 (http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Release_Notes_2.1.0): Shortcuts created in pre...
