Followed instructions, thanks, however [Sorry, cannot write streams to disk]. Open up the "Output Plug-ins" options again, select "Nullsoft Diskwriter v2.xx [out_disk.dll]" and then click the "Configure" button. Check to see what the output file location is, and check ...

I noticed the same problem when I tried "Save Multiple", but it is actually worse. The save operations completes but the files with the problem are corrupted and very small. There is no notification from Audacity that any problem occurred. It is easy to lose files this way. I was cleaning...

In "config.log" you have: --disable-alsa This means that Audacity will be built without ALSA support, and is probably the reason that you are not seeing any devices. To do a clean build of Audacity, from inside the Audacity sourcecode directory (audacity-read-only) sudo make uninstall this...

It's most likely a combination of your sound card and Windows (I bet you're using Windows). Go into the "Sounds" settings in the Windows Control Panel and turn off all "enhancement" effects for your sound card. Look out specifically for "Echo cancellations", "Noise...

I was hoping that thru the wave of something magical I could shove 5 lbs of stuff into a 4 lb can :D Nice analogy, but heck, if you don't need to worry about standards or compatibility you can squeeze 40 lbs of stuff into a 4 lb can, just compress it at about "quality level 3" as an ogg v...

For a "standard" CD, you can't. The maximum playing time for a standard CD is 79.8 minutes (and maximum 99 tracks) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Book_%28CD_standard%29 For CD-Rs it is less than this, usually around 72 to 74 minutes depending on the CDR that is used, though some high cap...
