I would suggest that you try registering again with the e-mail address that you want to use - if you still have a problem, log in with your cu...

Re: If i uninstall and re-install will I lose my audacity fi

Uninstalling/reinstalling Audacity 1.2.6 will not affect existing audio files/projects on your hard drive, but it is also unlikely to cure any problems that you may be having. Upgrading to Audacity 1.3.12 is more likely to solve problems as the old 1.2.6 version is now very aged and known to have mu...

Re: change tempo/speed/pitch: which will shorten LENGTH?

I'm not aware of any bug in Audacity 1.3.12 regarding change speed producing incorrect results, and I'm not sure that I understand what your screen shot is showing. If you could devise a simple step-by-step method to reproduce the "bug" effect that you are seeing I would be very happy to l...

Re: After Pause why does Stop move the cursor?

Also why does the cursor shift when going from Pause to "Play/Stop And set cursor"? It doesn't, or at least it shouldn't. When you press the play button (or spacebar), playback will begin, The playback cursor moves along the waveform, but the selected position or region remains in the sam...

Re: Unable to set parameters for chained ExportMp3 command

Correct, an I agree that it would be convenient to be able to do so. "Chains" is currently a rather undeveloped feature in Audacity with many severe limitations and it is hoped that at some point in the future it will be radically reworked and expanded upon to give more comprehensive batch...

Re: Need advice on clipping, Audacity or Cakewalk UA-1G?

The peak light on the UA-1G should not light up. During recording the input level in Audacity should not touch 0dB. Both of the above conditions must be satisfied to avoid distortion. The UA-1G owners manual recommends: Adjust the [INPUT LEVEL] knob until the level is as high as you can get it witho...

Re: RECORDIND DISTORTS AFTER 5 MINUTES IN UBUNTU-LUCID

As you have been registered for quite a few months I assume that you are not a new user of Audacity and Audacity was previously working correctly? At what point did it stop working correctly? You've given very little information for anyone to go on. We don't even know which sound system, what sound ...

Re: flac encoder

I'm not sure that Flac export works in Audacity 1.2.6. If you update to Audacity 1.3.12 FLAC is supported natively.

Re: Setting Up Win7 Sound in Control Panel – Please Help!

Could you upload a short sample (about 2 seconds) as a WAV file - very short wav files may be attached to forum posts using the "Upload Attachment" tab below the message compose window. This will provide a much clearer idea of what we are dealing with.

Re: importing

MP4 format files are not supported by Audacity 1.2.x It may be possible to import them into Audacity 1.3.12 if you also install FFMpeg http://manual.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=FAQ:Installation_and_Plug-Ins#installffmpeg or you could use a standalone converter (such as "SUPER" be erig...
