I can't use anything above 1.3.3. Someone decided that my drivers no longer get support, so I cannot record with any newer version. Driver support in Audacity has changed a couple of times in recent releases of Audacity in order to support as many types of hardware as possible. There were changes m...

Here's an example that clearly shows samples that are not 16 bit values (vertical scale in dB)... Perhaps you can advise me on how you achieved this screenshot. In the Preferences/Interface the option of displaying -145dB range is there. I imported a file but the graph falls well below that range n...

I've been using 1.3.8 on Linux and it is pretty stable. There are several bug fixes in it that are not in 1.3.7, so although it stilll an alpha it is probably no more risky than 1.3.7. However, there probably are some bugs in it, so with important work you should be extra diligent about making backu...

If this is indeed the case, why in the world is development continuing on this software with this major problem outstanding? In the history of recorded music we have had The Beetles, Buddy Holly, Ella Fitzgerald, Stephan Grappelli, Jimmy Hendrix, The Who, Elvis, Bob Marley, Beethoven, Mahler.... al...

I'd like an answer as to whether Audacity is infact incapable of exporting to 24bit.

Read the posts - Audacity IS capable of exporting to 24bit / 32 bit.

Throw it away then.

well I ain't using 1.3.7 yet till all the yelling and screaming dies down. That could be a wise move :D I hear that the developers were planning to release a bug-fixed version on 1.3.7 but I'm not sure if that has happened yet. Audacity 1.3.8 is probably not far away - I'm using the alpha version, ...

I think you mean "16 bit 44.1 kHz"
