Re: Audacity Nyquist tutorial anywhere?

I hope this is not bad news for me. I really think I need to access each sample value as it appears in say a wav file. Edgar didn't say that you can't access each sample. He said that ... well you've already quoted what he said. :) Normally it is preferable to operate directly on "sounds"...

Re: exporting to mp3 (already have lame installed)

What format are you exporting them as?
Do the exported files play in Media Player?

Re: Go To Next Label

I've run up against the same issue myself. The "correct" method is a rather convoluted procedure of Tab, cursor Up/Down and ENTER keys. There's got to be a better way.
