This code, when run in the Nyquist Prompt (https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/nyquist_prompt.html) will create a label at the first zero crossing within the selected audio. If there are no zero crossings common to both channels, an error message is shown. Note that this code can only be used on ste...

My guess is that there's a "security" or "privacy" setting somewhere in the Big Sur settings that are preventing Audacity from playing. However, you appear to have already gone through all the security and privacy settings that I know of - perhaps Apple have added a new one that ...

The new project is now small enough (1.8 MB) and feels anonymized enough that I'd be willing to upload and share the whole thing if that would help.

Please do.

Have you tried recording from the mic with Garage Band?
If not, please try that and let us know what happens.

Need a plugin to highlight where are both stereo waveforms at very zero right at the same time

What should the plug-in do if left and right do not have a zero crossing at the same time?

Example:

I'm running out of ideas. I can't reproduce the problem (on Big Sur with Audacity 2.4.2), and I don't see any reason for the error.

Try "Reset Configuration" (in the "Tools" menu), and then reboot your computer.
Any change?

I think there's something weird about your device drivers - the settings that you had shouldn't be possible. However, as it's working now, best not to change it (If it's not broken, don't fix it)

Very strange.

Please open:
"Audacity menu > About Audacity"

Open the "Build Information" tab.

Scroll down to the bottom of the "Build Information" screen.

Take a screenshot and attach it to your reply.

Are you able to play audio files with the Apple Music app?

What else (hardware) do I need to multitrack on it? It depends what you mean by "multitrack". If you want to record multiple audio sources at the same time , the requirements are substantially greater (and more expensive) than if you want to overdub multiple tracks one at a time. The easi...
