The orbit works great when playing,
How are you doing that? Are you using the VST version in Audacity?

Re: I have bombed the most important episode of my new podcast and desperately need some help.

The spectrogram track view clearly shows that after the first couple of seconds, there are virtually no frequencies above 4 kHz.

That can happen if the sample rate is reduced to 8000 Hz, but that does not happen with a normal microphone recording.
How / what are you recording?

Re: Building Audacity 2.3.3 is OK,but recording doesn't work

Is there a reason why you are building from source rather than downloading the official release version?

I'm experiencing an issue when recording on my Mac (10.11.5 El Capitan). I've recorded on this device dozens of times before without issue.
Has this problem appeared after a Mac update? (See: https://osxdaily.com/2011/10/25/check-w ... -mac-os-x/)

Re: Instrument pitch drops a half step on playback

I think it's a minor bug in the Line 6 drivers. Look in the Windows Sound settings and check what sample rate the pod farm is using in the recording and playback tabs. Set the sample rates so that it is the same in both the recording and playback tabs, and set the Audacity Project Rate to the same. ...

Re: recording from ezcap232 with micro SD card to pc

Note that ezcap players are typically very cheap (currently available for US $21.32 on aliexpress). As the price is so low it should not be surprising that the build quality is cheap. We have received multiple reports that they don't last very long - keep your receipt. How do I record from ezcap 232...

Re: Opening a Saved Project

It is normal for applications to list a limited number of recent files. When the list is full, each new file will knock the oldest one off the list. To be able to quickly find your AUP files, I'd recommend putting them somewhere where you can easily find them, for example in Music\Audacity Projects\...

Is there a way in preferences to make flac appear at top of the drop down list?
No there isn't. Just click on "File menu > Export > Export Audio..."
or use the shortcut "Ctrl + Shift + E".

Re: A C program fails to generate a simple WAV file

In case it is of any interest to you, it can be done very easily using Nyquist.

In the Nyquist Prompt, run this code:

Code: Select all

;type generate
(setf notes (list C4 D4 E4 F4 G4 A4 B4 C5))
(seqrep (pitch (length notes))
        (osc (nth pitch notes)))
