Unfortunately it seems that the noise removal bug is not fully fixed in 1.3.4 (although it works on my machine). This is a great shame as for many people it is one of the most useful features in Audacity. You could try using the "Gnome Wave Cleaner" instead http://gwc.sourceforge.net/ To c...

"Error while opening sound device. Please check the output device settings and the project sample rate." This is a rather general message that means Audacity cannot use the selected soundcard with your current settings. Go into "Edit > Preferences > Audio I/O" and select ALSA (d...

mp3's always have a short period of silence at the beginning, so if each track is a separate mp3 file, there will be a short gap in the playback.

I do sympathise - acquiring the wisdom of reading instructions and making backups are painful lessons for us all. OK, so you now know that clicking "Yes" will delete the files. Let's say that they take your suggestion and implement it in Audacity 1.4 and you upgrade to this new version. So...

Well I installed linux-rt and booted up with it .... and nothing has improved. Rats :( I got a very significant improvement on my machine immediately without doing anything more than installing the rt-kernel (although I did have to remove the proprietary video driver and than re-install it after th...

Don't try installing hundreds of plug-ins at the same time, you'll confuse yourself and if there's a problem with just one plug-in that breaks Audacity you will have no idea which one is causing the problem. I would suggest that you uninstall Audacity completely and start again. Make sure that you r...

The new ver8 of Ubuntu comes out in just under a month. Cool - I wonder if they will include Audacity built against the latest Portaudio (with support for JACK). Is there a separate 64bit version of Audacity for Linux I must use? I don't think so, but there may be some 64 bit specific patches, so p...
