Way down the list is a podium microphone or a feed from the house mixer, but those have problems with heads bobbing back and forth and the volume changing.

Re: Saving segments of mutiple tracks as multiple WAV files

There is an easier way, but I don't know if it works with the old 1.2.6 version.

Set your song labels then press Ctrl+U (mut...

I've got the Realtek mixer running. Great stuff, we're getting there. Under the mixer tab I've got "Realtek HD Audio Input" selected but all the sliders are dead. That's not uncommon, and it's OK. The only things it's allowing me to do are rotate the Record knob, That's what you should us...

Re: 1.3.10 Export Selection as mp3 saves wrong duration

This is a bug specific to Audacity 1.3.10 - "Export Selection" and "Export Multiple" both export up to the next 5 second boundary.
This has been fixed in Audacity 1.3.11 which is available here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php? ... tly_Builds
