One possibility is that you are running of of hard drive space. Check that you have several gigabytes of free space on your hard drive. (Windows should always have a minimum of 10% free space at all times). You may be using an incompatible version of Lame. Remove (uninstall or delete) any existing v...

You'll need to get into a lot more detail. What version of Audacity, which Windows, what do you want to add to what? Do you mean you want to record other sound, or import other sounds? See here for getting started: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/Getting_Started The recommended version of Audacit...

Help screens now updated: HELP (overview): Text Envelope simulates the behavior of the Envelope tool using only text input. 'Select Function' allows applying the effect or viewing a help menu. Time units may be milliseconds, seconds, minutes or a % of the selection (default = seconds). Amplification...

I wanted to generate tone, say around 500mhz and then have it go up to 900 and repeat I don't think you really mean "500mhz" - perhaps 500 Hz? You can create a single rising tone using "Generate > Chirp" The generated tone can then be repeated by selecting the generated tone, th...

What level of noise are you referring to? (in dB relative to full scale)
