Re: Speed up long import times for large wavs?

I think it may exist in Audacity 1.3.6 alpha (alpha = development build, not tested, not necessarily stable, not released yet).
You may be able to get it from this link, but don't blame me if your computer spontaneously combusts :D

Re: Bubbling During loud recording

What's the peak level like? Does it push up against the top/bottom of the track? If it does, then you've recorded it too loud. The ClipFix plugin may help if you are lucky, but it depends on how bad the distortion is.

Re: Problem with the Change Tempo tool

I think this is to do with the way that Audacity does the stretching. Unlike "Change Speed" where the audio can just be resampled, for time stretching there has to be some pretty cleaver splicing going on, and it needs to be as seamless as possible. This therefore involves processing chunk...

Re: No Stereo Mix or Line In with SoundMax HD

Have you tried going into the Control Panel and viewing the hidden options?
If you're on Vista, have you checked out the Vista section of the wiki?

Re: Voice Recorders

I find that surprising, I'm delighted with my H2. Of course it's not up to the same quality as my Neumann's, but it's a couple of grand cheaper. I only wish I had one back in the days when I was using 4-track cassette recorders :D Check your recording levels, and check your recording format - I gene...

Re: 1.3.5 will not capture audio from line-in

That's strange - I've used Audacity v.1.3.3, v.1.3.4 and v.1.3.5 on Windows XP with a SoundBlaster Live! 1024 without any problem ! I'm somewhat confounded that it doesn't work for you. Are you sure that you removed both the registry settings and the configuration file completely before trying v.1.3...

Re: Mike wont work and cant play files

Try downloading this short sample to your computer, then open Audacity and from the "File" menu select "Import".

It is a standard "16 bit 44.1kHz Microsoft PCM WAV" file.

Re: import mp3 at Opensuse 11.0

Every time when i want to open a mp3 with Audacity, Audacity tells me that this version hasn't compiled mp3. Well that's the problem then. Where did you get Audacity from? is it the official version from the OpenSuse Repository? If you have installed it from an RPM, then you may need to find a diff...
