Re: How to change tempo to compensate for pitch change?

You are banging up against the limits of what the pitch / tempo stretching can do. These effects work by chopping up the sound into lots of little pieces, then splicing them back together again. The process is not 100% precise, so as you have discovered some minor discrepancies occur. In most situat...

Using Audacity 1.3.7 , I edited an audio MP3 file and cut some chunks out. I then wrote the file (via Export) and a good mp3 file was created. However the generated file is much larger in size than the original input file. So no compression is taking place. I checked the options for any possible ch...

Re: NEED TO REMOVE AN UNPLEASANT INSTRUMENT FROM A KARAOKE D

Check out the links in that post - they are for more than just vocal isolation and are the only tools that we know of for getting rid of your nasty cymbal, though as inferred in that thread, those tools may or may not work with your recording.

Re: Audacity stops recording

Yes they do, but I've not noticed problems using Firefox myself, though you may of course have add-ons that I don't have. I've read through this topic and nothing jumps out at me but it seems that something is wobbling your system. Have you done a full system scan for viruses / adware / spyware? Not...
