what are all the errors/problems that could happen when having the same project open in different windows Audacity can lock up. It can disappear off the screen (minimize) and refuse to restore/maximize. Portions of data can get mixed up so that parts of one file end up in the other. Portions of dat...

G'Day Mate :D Are you "Recording" this music, or "Importing" it? If you are recording it, then you probably have the recording level too high. To change the recording level, open the "Windows Mixer" (loudspeaker icon near the clock in the bottom right of your screen), f...

How much hard drive space do you have? Depending on what you are doing, Audacity can use a huge amount of disk space for temporary files. By default Audacity stores temporary files on the C: drive Look in "Edit > Preferences > Directories" for the exact location. Also, on the same page, ch...

Audacity will not help you extract the audio files from the video, or to put them back i...
