I would use Gnome Wave Cleaner (Linux only) rather than the Audacity noise removal as it is a lot better. Use Audacity 1.3.11 (should be available in a few days on the main Audacity web site). If you clean the tape heads and pinch rollers before playing the tape (probably a good idea), ensure that i...

Using lots of little chunks of uncompressed audio data is a core feature of Audacity's "audio engine". Changing that would be a complete rewrite of Audacity, and then it wouldn't be Audacity, it would be something else.

You are probably going to have to put up with sub-optimum live sound, or sub-optimum recording until you get your speakers fixed.

There's one for 50Hz and one for 60Hz.

Why have you got them panned? You say it works OK when they are set to the middle.

You have posted in the Audacity 1.2 / Windows part of the forum, but Audacity 1.2 does not support Metadata editing.
You can change the metadata in Windows after the file is Exported by right clicking on the file and selecting properties > go to where the id3 tags are displayed and change them.

When I stop a track at the point where I want to edit, the cursor returns to beginning. How do I make cursor stay put when I press stop? An alternative to Koz' suggestion: before you press Stop (spacebar), press the "open square bracket" key "[" If you want to select a section w...
