It was going to be Audacity 1.4 back in 2007.
Audacity 1.3.10 is very much more stable than a lot of "stable" audio software. At work it is more stable than our ProTools set-up !

Boys, take that windoze talk somewhere else, Just correcting an erroneous myth. I'm prone to saying that these packages make a Mac sound system as unstable as Windows is all the time. Oops there's another one - there is nothing inherently unstable about the Windows sound system. Windows is used in ...

Aside that the song I'm hoping to (any degree) un-synthesize is Japanese, I'm not sure why this question is relevant to the topic. I Googled for...

If you don't mind doing it in 2 passes (MP3 > WAV > MP3) then LamedropXPd is ridiculously easy to use. Right click on the program (which looks like a postage stamp) to set your preferences, then just drag a load of files onto it. MP3's are decoded to WAV and WAVs are encoded to MP3.

So when I try to record over another track it has the beat from the other track in the recording. Open the Windows Mixer (loudspeaker icon near the clock in lower right corner of the desktop) and set the recording input to Microphone instead of Stereo Mix. The drop down box is grayed out. Upgrade t...

Here's a custom version that should support fractional bpm. If you find it useful (and it works OK), post a message on the "Feature Requests" board and it may get included in future Audacity releases. Extract the contents of the attached zip file into the Audacity plug-ins folder. When Aud...
