1) Which step do I do first, 1) bring the line above the 0 in the "draw curve" view and then--- 2) tweak or higher the treble (draw the second pic you posted)?--- or higher the treble first--- and then bring the line above the 0 as an amplification? That's down to your personal preference...

No need to apologise - the developers need people to spot bugs so that they can be fixed - in this case someone else spotted the problem before you did (and fixed it).

I've not tested it, but it looks like this has been fixed in r11198. The change in r11197 was that AutoDuck has been modified to validate text input so as to disallow meaningless non-numeric characters in the text boxes.

Oh I see, the noise is from the hard drive on the mp3 player / recorder. Usually those are pretty quiet. It's always best to try and avoid the noise rather than fixing it later. You've not said what this device is, but if you are using a built in microphone on the device, you may get better results ...

The current Windows .EXE version of Audacity (the recommended download for Windows) includes the full manual which is the same as the on-line manual. Perhaps you only saw the "Quick Help" and not the full manual? We do as much as possible to draw peoples attention to the comprehensive amou...
