Re: Alignment probem exporting and importing

Re: cAN i DELETE UNUSED LANGUAGES TO SAVE DISK SPACE.

I'm not answering your question directly because alarm bells are ringing. Let's deal with the alarm first ;) 10 MB is equivalent to about 1 minute of CD quality audio.

Re: Open multiple audio files into one track

if the LOF syntax allowed specifying appending of files, would the user need to use a GUI Append Import rather than simply the existing File > Open... or File > Import...?

Re: Noise

My original recording sounds ok in Audacity. I then checked the recording that was exported to MP3 on the computer with WMP and it still didn't have the "noise". So I went to the site that the recordings are uploaded to and found that they were transcoding them to 32 bitrate. I believe th...
