solved with : gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/interface/accessibility --type bool false I'm glad to hear that this workaround still works, though the explanation given in https://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?p=314959#p314959 is incorrect. "Gnome2 accessibility is enabled and this requ...

Which version of Audacity are you using? (Look in "Help menu > About Audacity")

Can you guys up that to say 4-5MB? (Which is pretty tiny in 2020...) It's not tiny when you have thousands of files, thousands of visitors, and you pay for the bandwidth. Audacity is not a business - the software, support, documentation and websites are all provided free of charge (many thanks to t...

What is the file limitation size? Mostly 2 MB, though it may be 1 MB in a few cases. I have 4.6MB and 8.6MB files that I wanted to share here... You could use a file sharing site such as dropbox, Google Drive, One Drive, SendSpace or similar, and post a link to the file. If you do that, ensure that...

I suspect that Apple make it intentionally difficult as they also own the largest music store in the world. It makes more business sense for them to sell music through iTunes store ...

So why does 20ms seem to work but 100ms does not work? I don't know. It's one of the mysteries of macOS. We know that on macOS a smaller buffer size often helps , but personally I don't know why that is. My "educated guess" is that it is some sort of synchronization problem, but I'm not a...

Zoom out, drag to roughly the right place, then zoom in on the end and adjust the selection ("Shift + click and drag" to grab the end of the selection). I prefer to use "Ctrl + Mousewheel" to zoom, but there are several options: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/zooming.html If...

An MKA file is a audio file saved in the Matroska multimedia container format. It supports several types of audio compression algorithms, including MP3, AAC, and Vorbis. MKA files are typically used for storing voice recordings and songs. To export as MKA, use the "Custom FFmpeg Export" an...
