Did you read my previous post?

The basic method would be to create your audio in Audacity, Export it as a WAV file (File menu > Export > Audio) then import the WAV file into Elements. Audacity allows you to alter the level of the audio in a track. One way (there are others) is to use the Envelope Tool: http://manual.audacityteam....

I am now assuming, of course, that the number that can be used in the track title comes from the metadata that has been specified. I had earlier thought it came directly from an internal count of the 'labels' specified, which, if true, would complicate things a little. If you are using one of the n...

Do you have any shareware or demo plug-ins or other audio applications that may be causing the beeps?

It's in the manual here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/au ... html#panel

The problem seems to be that Audacity can't gain access to the sound system.
Does your computer have HDMI audio?
Does your sound system use PulseAudio?

Audacity uses (depending on the build) either libreample, or libsamplerate or libsoxr.

If you are looking for command line access to resampling, have a look at SoX http://sox.sourceforge.net/Docs/Features
If you just want the library, see libsoxr.

Do try that.

If the USB device does not appear in the Device Toolbar, try "Transport menu > Rescan Audio Devices".
(Rescanning should not be necessary if the USB device is connected before you launch Audacity)

Do you mean changing the tempo and pitch (resampling) or changing the tempo without changing the pitch (time stretching)?
