Re: Which audio do I use

Windows 7 has not yet had much real "field testing" for Audacity (or any other application). I'd suggest that you try both and see which works better. Is there an option for "direct sound"? If Audacity is currently working - write down settings (on paper) before you change them -...

Re: Overly Large Database on Windows

Perhaps we are looking at this the wrong way round. If a project is using files that are external to the project, then the project folder could be considerably smaller than a project that includes all of the audio data. In Audacity 1.2.x, there is an option in "Edit menu > Preferences > File Fo...
