I'm working on a project to replace a customers phone system - they are reporting intermittent audio delay/latency on calls from some customers I'm assuming that you mean a landline system.

Re: Selected part of a track not highlighted

Re: Recording stops immediately in overdubbing mode, not always

The `recording device` control (the second member of the Device Toolbar) contains the `pulse` option to select, and it looks the same as the `default` one. The default sound system is PulseAudio, so "default" is just an alias for PulseAudio. "ALSA" is the underlying sound system ("drivers") between...

Re: Closing the project from macro

I can open project, make some other operations, but not "Close". I've not tested, but my guess is that with "pipe_test.py", Python is hanging waiting for the response to the Close: command. If that's the case, then hopefully it's just because it is running in a single thread (which should be fixed ...

I'm not sure if that was a typo, but you should avoid using special characters in file names (the exclamation mark "!"). Even if it is a legal file name (I think it is), I would not like to assume that the Windows Shell will be happy with it.
