So what I'm trying to do is record through a single device that has 8 mic inputs and I want to assign each one of those channels to individual tracks on Audacity and use them simultaneously to record a drum kit, but your saying you can't do this with Audacity, correct? No, what I'm saying is that y...

You will need to be a lot more descriptive.
Start with which version of Audacity and what operating system, then go on to describe exactly what you are doing and what is happening. Remember that we can't see your computer.

I know there are a few different varieties of ADPCM so maybe I can download a codec from someplace? The problem with .RAW files is that they are "headerless". That is, they contain only the data and no information about what the actual data format is. If you don't already know the format ...

I want to say that the default Cool Edit display is log. Virtually every other audio editor and DAW displays a dB scale against a "normal" display. As many effects in Audacity use a dB scale I think it would be a very useful addition and I expect many users would want to set it as the def...

A more geeky answer is that the number represents the actual numerical value of the samples as represented within Audacity (float format). If you run the following code in the Nyquist Prompt effect (Effect menu), it will print the numerical value of the first sample in the selected audio (mono track...

As I understand it, Audacity is not (yet) multi-processor aware and most processing tasks are done in a single thread. Implementing full multiprocessor support would require a major rewrite of the Audacity code, but the developers priority has been on fixing bugs and releasing Audacity 2 rather than...
