If I select full track (and only full) ; the factor is multiply by the duration track.

So it does. I presume this is one of those behavioural abstraction things that I don't yet understand.
I've not really got my head round using the transformation environment.

Steve, if you are aware of other reproducible problems with JACK, can you summarise them for me? That's not as easy as it sounds. As you say, there are subtle changes with each update. On Xubuntu Gutsy with the repo build of Audacity (Package: audacity (1.3.3-1ubuntu0.1), Jack did not seem to be av...

The Windows Sound Recorder uses the Windows sound system straight - nothing fancy, just straight out through the Windows sound system. When Audacity is set up correctly, it does the same. So if there is a problem with the Windows sound system that prevents Windows Sound Recorder from working, then A...
