Previously I would select Noise Reduction, highlight some audio, That would have been the other way round: Highlight some audio -> Select Noise Reduction I get the "Value not in range: 0 to 24" error? When exactly does that message appear? If the Noise Reduction window opens, check the se...

There would be some loss of sound quality, and increased wear on the stylus by playing a record faster, but it could be done. Also, the RIAA equalization built into the pre-amp will be slightly off, but that could be corrected later if necessary with Audacity's "Graphic Eq" effect. I don't...

Can all of these music files be recovered?

On the same track or a new track, or does that make no difference?

1. Where is Software Playthrough? It's supposed to be turned off, but I can't find it anywhere in the manual. It is off by default. As DVDdoug wrote, it can be found in "Recording" Preferences. (https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/recording_preferences.html) It is also in: "Transport...

To record to a new track, "Shift + R". In old versions, Audacity recorded to a new track by default, and to "append record" was "Shift + R" (or "Shift + click the record button"). In response to user feedback, this was reversed so that recording to the same tr...
