I am having the exact same problem When people say that, 9 times out of 10 the symptoms are similar but the actual problem is something quite different. So as to not go off in the wrong direction for dickeverard, I shall ignore your post and wait for dickeverard's reply. If you really do have "...

How much is it slowing down?

Does the pitch also change?

Does the problem happen if you record directly from a microphone without the iRig?

How is the iRig connected to your computer?

Why are you using WASAPI?

I disable dither and now Noise Gate works properly on 16-bit track. Yay! Please note that even with dither turned off, using 16-bit tracks will needlessly reduce the sound quality. Turning dither off is NOT recommended when processing audio. The recommended (professional) way would be to convert th...

Like many VST plug-in effects in Audacity, how it sounds the real-time preview is not how it sounds when applied. If that really is the case, then it should be logged as a bug. Note that Trebor wrote that two years ago. If it is a bug, and if it still exists, then it is extraordinary that no-one ha...
