I've not got a Windows machine handy at the moment, but you should have more than that. There should be the "Change Speed"/Tempo/Pitch effects for a start. We need accurate detail now: Which version of Audacity do you have (look in the "About" part of the Help menu) Which version...

That could be the problem - I don't think that is the default directory for Audacity 1.3.6

Yep, the LADSPA plug-ins have an installation program which places the DLL files directly into the plug-in folder.

Plug-ins are often distributed as zip files - they must be un-zipped into the Audacity plug-in folder. Note that if you previously had Audacity 1.2 installed, then you will have 2 Audacity folders. The Audacity 1.3 folder can be found in the "Program Files" folder and will be labelled as &...

I forgot about these tutorials - they are specifically about Audacity 1.2.x and may be a bit easier to follow:

1) Open Audacity 2) Import your audio file (WAV or MP3 - Windows Media files are not supported, neither are iTunes AAC files). 3) Select the audio by one of the following methods: Ctrl+A (select All) Click just below the name of the track, just above the "solo" and "mute" buttons...

I understand the free part from your side but I paid for the equipment and that is how I got the software and when I call the number on the instruction book I am referred to this site. That's rather cheeky isn't it - I doubt that they even make a donation to Audacity. I am having problems exporting...
