Re: Audacity won't overwrite files, even when told to

OK, so playing around last night, I checked a few files in the folder that's been acting weird and that I haven't yet adjusted and, yes, they were marked as Read Only. When I removed this in Properties, then exported them from Audacity, I wasn't seeing the dupe files. When I just loaded a bunch mor...

Re: Export Multiple Track not multipl-ing

Make sure you are using Audacity 2.0.5 from http://audacityteam.org/download/windows . I'm running windows 7/32-bit. This is a fresh install. I have correctly made four single-track stereo project files. I have labeled each song using Edit->Labels, and have made sure the labels are on each segment, ...

Re: Made copy, deleted, which deleted original file -> recov

If you must make a copy of a project using the file manager, exit the project, then create a new folder. Copy the AUP file and _data folder. Paste into the new folder you created. The problem you had is that you did the copy in the same folder, which means you must rename the project. Basically the ...

Re: LOUD Buzz - I haven't even started yet!

Found & enabled 'Stereo Mixer' in Windows. Clicked on Input Monitor Level in Audacity, purely out of curiosity, & almost permanently lost my hearing due to immense WHINE, which filled the room until I disabled 'Stereo Mix'. What am I doing wrong now? Probably you have Transport > Software P...

Re: ASIO Multi Client Wrapper

I managed to compile Audacity with ASIO support, and everything works fine selecting the ASIO4All device, but when I attempt to select the Multi Client Wrapper (that would allow Audacity to share control of the sound card with a low latency MIDI Synthesiser) it crashes. What exactly is the Multi Cl...

Re: Vista / No Stereo / Mono only / EasyCAP

Look in the Windows Sound Control Panel and ensure that the device is set to record in mono, then restart Audacity. As I understand it, trickywoo was wanting to record in stereo. I can’t change the USB device microphone setting to stereo (the 1 channel setting is greyed out) Which setting is greyed...

Re: Sudden slowdown

Suddenly, all the edits take a long time to process, and my audio file is no longer than 24 minutes, with no more than 2 multi-tracks. I read somewhere on this forum that it may have something to do with a caching system being enabled, which I need to disable. Where under preferences can I find thi...

Re: Easiest way to reassemble wav files after export?

Perhaps a single option for Export Selected Audio would do "Always render leading/trailing space as silence" Do you mean "Always render selected leading/trailing space as silence" ? Yes I do, given that option only exports the selection. The challenge will be making that wording...
