Re: Monitoring

If you are having trouble configuring it you will need to give details about your set-up.

Re: Micro source recording and delayed echoed playback

I have done that sort of thing using an old 1/4" tape recorder and a large loop of tape.
There are digital effects boxes such as the Boss RC20-XL Loop Sampler available these days to do the same sort of thing.
Audacity does not do this.

Re: Audacity 1.38, issues after using generate silence.

I can't reproduce the issue on Audacity 1.3.9

Try the latest available version of Audacity for your operating system. You can download it here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php? ... s_Binaries

Re: Audacity hangs on startup

It looks like you have something running that is clashing with Audacity, Can you do a fresh boot of your computer and shut down all non-essential processes, then try Audacity.

Re: Badly need Confirmation Email

There is a plug-in that is available for all versions of Audacity including Audacity 1.2 called "centrepanremover.ny" This plug-in effect can reduce vocals on stereo tracks using the method described here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=Vocal_Removal#Center_Pan_Remover_.28Voc...

Re: Can't Scroll Left and right?

SHIFT + Mouse Wheel

Works on Linux and Windows - how about Macs?

There's also loads of keyboard navigation shortcuts for people without mouse wheels (see "Keyboard" section of Preferences for details).
