1. Every time i try to export a M4A file i get the error: "FFmpeg : ERROR - Couldn't write last audio frame to output file.". This happens just after the exporting finishes. This however doesn't seem to generate any problems when playing the file. That's a bug that has since been fixed. A...

I am sure there is a reason why Audacity does things the way it does

Audacity has one set of metadata for each Audacity project.
Each project can contain data from any number of files, but regardless of the number of tracks imported, the project still only has one set of metadata.

Please create an "Audio Device Info" text file, and attach it to your reply.
More info in these links:

Oh, sorry. I cannot find the data folder, "SHGO interview_data".

Unfortunately we can't help you. If you don't have the "_data" folder, then you have no audio for the project.
(Did you check the trash bin?)

The "Bass and Treble" effect has "real time preview". https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/bass_and_treble.html The Equalization effect only has the short preview, though you can change the length of the preview in "Preferences > PLayback > Effects Preview -> Length". ht...

I have Hp 8740w windows 10 32 bit How much RAM? 4GB is the realistic minimum amount of RAM required to run Windows 10 32-bit. Even with 4GB, you need to take care that there are not too many applications open at the same time. I see that HP only provide drivers for the HP 8740w up to Windows 7, so ...
