I have several mp3 on a thumb drive that I want to import to Audacity.

Which exact version of Audacity are you using?

So went to my Mac audio system preferences. The USB PnP Audio Device shows as one of the devices on the left temporarily, then disappears. Anyone know what's up? Unfortunately those "super USB cassette" players are notoriously unreliable, especially on Mac (Example: https://www.google.com...

Is there any way to stop this? Short answer: No. An easy mistake to make in Audacity is to accidentally nudge the Track Gain or Pan sliders (See: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/audio_tracks.html#gain) If you accidentally nudge the Track Gain slider then at least you will be able to hear the pr...
