This is really useful.

It's also obsolete.

With Audacity 2.4.2, all tracks should be automatically in sync by default.

I think I know what's wrong, but I'm not sure what it looks like on Windows. Please do this: 1. Launch Audacity 2. "File menu > Import > Audio" 3. Select the file "test-tone-1000Hz.mp3" but DO NOT click the "Open" button - stop at this point with the browser window open...

dumbfounded to know how it got changed in the sound control panel as we dont go there Windows works in mysterious ways. :? I have also noticed that the sample rate settings in the Sound control panel may sometimes change without me changing them. I don't know if it's something that Windows Update m...

Unfortunately they built Audacity 2.3.3 with GTK3, which is not fully supported by Audacity and known to cause graphical glitches on some m...

Ensure that Audacity, and ".AU" files are whitelisted in your antivirus. If your antivirus is checking every .AU file, that will have a massive detrimental affect on Audacity's performance.
