Re: Audacity does not start

"Error 1327" is only part of a Windows error message. The full message should be: "Error 1327. Invalid Drive" and then the drive letter for the "missing" drive. The problem usually occurs when Windows gets mixed up about which drive is which and tries to find data on a ...

Re: English selected, but French version appeared

Open Audacity and then press Ctrl+P
This will open the "Preferences" window.
Go to the 5th item in the list on the left (Interface) and select "English" from the Language selection drop-down list.
Close Audacity and restart it to ensure that the setting sticks.

Re: Live Music Editing Tips?

It's also worth remembering that if you want to use the recording exactly as it occurred, with all the between-song banter and stuff, it won't work well if you edit each song individually because there will be no flow. For a full concert, you pretty much have to bite the bullet and apply the same e...
