Audacity Forum

Although Audacity 1.2.6 is still listed on the web site as the "stable" version, it is very old and no longer under development. Try updating to Audacity 1.3 and see if the problem goes away. If it does not, then tell us a bit more about your system and exactly what you are doing (which ve...

The tracks should be big enough by default to show the pan and volume sliders.
My guess is that you have set the option "Automatically fit tracks vertically zoomed" in Preferences (Edit menu > Preferences > Tracks)

There's something wrong with the installation. How did you install Audacity?

The problem is that ASIO is not supported in Audacity. Unless you can either use Windows drivers (WDM, MME, Direct Sound), or build Audacity from the source code and compile in ASIO support, then it will not work properly. Direct Sound is supported in recent versions of Audacity 1.3 but not in 1.2.x

We have something of a dilemma there because Audacity 1.3.10 has known problems with Export Multiple. The "Export Multiple" bug is that when you use "Export Multiple", the end of each marked section is increased to the next 5 second mark. If you don't use the Export Multiple fea...

Unfortunately Audacity has always been a bit dodgy with Jack and the current 1.3.10 version is just the same. Here's how I get it working: 1) Connect a USB audio device ! I don't have to actually use the USB sound card, it just overcomes the problem of Audacity not being able to find an available au...

As I said on the mailing list, I use Audacity 1.3.10 built from source on Ubuntu 9.04 and it is very stable. I've build new versions regularly for testing purposes, and generally the result is a lot more stable than the package version. I had a lot of problems with the 1.3.7 package version, to the ...

I noticed this a while back but I can only get it to happen through extreme clicking - my suspicion was that rapid play/stop/play/stop/... was messing up Audacity's connection to PulseAudio. I've not had the problem with "normal" use.

Only problem is part of the wave for about 3/4 through the song is screwed up, so being levelled (or whatever) like that made the sound wobbly at that bit. If you look closely at the "before" image, at around 1:54:00 there is something screwy going on in the left audio channel. The effect...

<<<I only have 512MB of memory>>> That didn't ring any bells with anybody? That's not enough internal memory for live audio production. The system will start pushing the work off to the hard drive almost immediately. That depends on the operating system. For example, on Windows Vista the operating ...
