Re: Adjustable Fade

I can see Steve's POV here; the trouble is that without a complete fade to zero (or from zero) then the fade is not really a fade-out (or fade-in). The thing that swung it for me was when I was using it and chose "Fade In" when I actually wanted to fade "down". The example that ...

Re: Tools Menu

I'm a bit cautious about loading too many "features" on what a "tools" type Audacity plug-in should be. I would argue that the simple classification would be that: If the plug-in returns audio that is derived from one or more existing audio tracks, (ie. the audio is processed and...

Re: How to add recording on certain time after recording

You can't do that without editing.
Record the new track, then cut it, then click where you want to insert it and paste.

Keyboard shortcuts:
Cut: Ctrl+X
Paste: Ctr+V

Re: How to see the details of wav file?

"File menu > Export"
Select "Other uncompressed files" as the file type.
Click on the "Options" button and select "RAW" as the header and whichever "Encoding" it is that you require.
