Re: error when opening an audacity file

Don't move, rename or delete the _data folder that has the same name as the AUP file. So, just find the correct _data folder, make sure it has the same name as the AUP file, then put that _data folder in the same folder that the AUP file is in. For example, "Tree Song.aup" goes with the &q...

Re: Spectrum analysis

Nyquist will only accept a dot as the decimal separator. For plugins that have numeric input boxes, the numeric input box is internationalized so that the decimal separator appropriate to the locale is used ("comma" for Russian locale). Thanks for the explanation. If I understand correctl...

See if turning Transport > Software Playthrough off helps (no tick or checkmark). You won't be able to hear what you are recording...

Re: Error while opening sound device when running Audacity

I am seeking some help please with Audacity on my Windows 7 laptop. I used an old version of Audacity to transfer a speech on cassette tape to MP3. While the transfer was successful, parts of the speech (from the speaker furthest away from the microphone I would guess) are inaudible. That is likely...

Re: 15 second delay in recording

If this is a USB headset as it seems, there may not be Windows enhancements for it. If not, ensure you connect to an empty USB port, not a to a USB hub connected to the USB port. Try changing the cable. Edit > Preferences... in Audacity, "Recording" section and ensure Audio to buffer is se...

Steve knows more about this than I do, but I think it's normal for Nyquist effects to require the expected separator for the locale. Recently updated ones will do so.
