Re: Copy left channel to the right one

The main thing that you are missing is that you've not seen the track drop-down menu. Click on the track name for the drop-down menu. Note that a mono track will play through both left and right, so it may be sufficient for you to simply select "Split to Mono" from the track drop down menu...

Re: Spectrogram View

IIRC I think there is a long-standing FR in the Wiki for grids (optional/switchable) on the audio track displays - both Spectrogram and Waveform. I found this old post, so I've moved it to the "Adding Features" forum: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=56932 Personally...

Re: Trouble recording in stereo

If this is an intermittent problem, that is, sometimes it works OK but sometimes the right channel is at a lower level with all the same settings, then I would suspect that the problem could be a loose connection in the turntable. Does the turntable have analogue outputs? (Left and right phono conne...

Re: Exporting Multiple Labels

When I hit escape I get a popup that says "Export canceled after exporting the following 0 file(s). When you hit escape, that will cancel the export, hence the message. The question is, why does "nothing happen" before that. Which version of Audacity are you using? (look in "Hel...

Re: Importing text as audio/exporting audio as text

I see we are resurrecting an ancient topic. I wrote some experimental code for importing text data that had been previously exported with "Sample Data Export" (in the Analyze menu). I think that this could be useful (though definitely of minority interest) for things like Gale's case: ... ...

Re: Having trouble with 24/96 wave files

Audacity works internally in 32 bit float format and whatever sample rate you have set as the "Project Rate" (bottom left corner of the main Audacity window). 24 bit files can be imported just like 16 bit. To save a 24 bit audio file use "File menu > Export", then selecy "Ot...
