Re: Changing Pitch is bugged.

thanks, I'm using the 1.3.13 beta version You posted in the Audacity 1.2 part of the forum (your duplicate post was also in the Audacity 1.2 section). It's just that the field for "From" hz is bugged, it doesn't let me type anything there You appear to be correct. This is a known fault, b...

Not really, though you could try applying a 20 or 30 Hz high pass filter as the first step in your processing. Sounds below 20 Hz cannot be played by most audio equipment.

Re: Changing Pitch is bugged.

There's several bugs in Audacity 1.2.x, but I'm not sure that this is one of them. Audacity 1.2.x is no longer being developed.
