Re: using two copies of Audacity simultaneously

I'd recommend that you make yourself a cup of coffee (or tea if you prefer) while your waiting. Your hard drive can only go as fast as it can go, so while it is busy any other editing would probably be dead slow and would make the export operation take longer.

Re: Cannot find how to extract start-end time & duration for

In Audacity a "silence" and a "gap" are not quite the same thing. This image shows two "silences" with a "gap" between them: firsttrack000.png In your description, is "sg" a "Silence" or a "Gap"? If it is a "Gap" then yo...

Re: Multiband EQ effect causes crash on Win7 home

There is nothing in Audacity called "Multiband EQ".
Do you mean this effect: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/equalization.html
or something different?
If it is a different effect, please tell us where you got it from so that we can try it.

Re: Program frozen and hung up cannot access or exit Nyquist

Delete Audacity completely.
Then download the dmg file from here: http://audacityteam.org/download/mac
Then re-install Audacity by precisely following the instructions on that page.

Re: Edit options all dimmed

Press the "Stop" button then try again.
Most commands are only available while playback is stopped (not "Paused").

Re: Convert frequency of sine tone to vibration (tremolo)

How are you generating the tones for your test? With Audacity, generate tone function. The best way to do this will be to generate the modulated signals (rather than generating sine tones and then modulating them. Try this code. To use it, select a bit of an audio track, starting at the point where...

Re: A more accessible way to set up latency correction

I guess that's the Linux way of doing things... :D That was on Windows XP :) After all, reading the current Latency Correction isn't that important. Not essential, but easier for the user. How about providing options for "standard installation" and "Portable Installation", where...

Re: A more accessible way to set up latency correction

What do you mean by launched? As an example, if you open the Windows Command Prompt, the prompt will indicate the current directory. If you then launch Audacity from the Command Prompt, *default-sf-dir* will indicate the same directory as was shown in the Command Prompt. If you then close Audacity,...

Selectable Tempo like Sonar has. Indication of bars and beats like Sonar has. Quantizing to beats like S...
