I was thinking of using "Clipfix", but possibly in a slightly non-standard way. Clipfix is available in some of the most recent versions of Audacity 1.3 (beta), and is available as a plug-in for all other 1.3 versions. Clipfix works by "rounding off" peaks that have been "ha...

You may be out of luck on this one, but there is a very slim chance of recovery.
Can you upload a short (just a few seconds) of a badly affected part (as a WAV file) somewhere on the internet and post a link to it so that we can have a look at it.

I'm guessing that if you open the AUP file in a text editor, there will not be much in it? Or not much that actually relates the locations of the data files that you have? Useful background information before going any further: http://audacityteam.org/wiki/index.php?title=File_Management_Tips I'm no...

"Quick Mix" is in Audacity 1.2.x (project menu) "Mix and Render" is in Audacity 1.3.x (tracks menu) There functions are essentially the same, though 1.3.x has some additional features that make the new name more accurate to what it does. (You can "render" a single track...
