Re: Use exported MP3 to go back and recreate Aud file?

You will have lost a bit of sound quality by using the MP3 (MP3 files are always lower sound quality than the original), but hopefully that won't be too noticeable.

All you need to do is to open Audacity (new empty project, then Import the MP3 file (File menu > Import > Audio).

No it isn't, though splitting a track can be done quite easily using "Export Multiple". See: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/sp ... racks.html

Unfortunately that is broken in the current version of Audacity, however, if you install FFmpeg then Audacity is able to use that to...

That code on its own will only produce an error.
If you add a ")" to the end, it will generate a sine wave with a frequency of 1 Hz, a peak-to-peak amplitude of 50 and a DC off-set of 100 at the *control* sample rate.

Re: Program not launching

Try reinstalling Audacity from the recommended installer (http://web.audacityteam.org/download/windows)
During the installation, look out for the option to "Reset Preferences" and select that option.

Re: What bit rate do I use when exporting audio from a video

MP3 -> FLAC no problem -I've read others saying this is useless, but it would be only for preserving the quality and not for making it sound better, right? Right. You could use WAV rather than FLAC, but the file size for WAV is almost double the file size in FLAC format. Also, meta-data is better s...
