[...101 quotes later...] Could you please just answer that specific? Does the focus remain on the third track, or move back to the fourth track? We're working on bug 510. I'm not asking for alternatives. After Undo, focus can remain on the third track or move to the fourth track. Not both. Gale I t...

Audacity seems to have a problem with the backslash when opening or importing. But as a workaround, you can drag the file into Audacity. A developer did look into this, but it's a problem with a file name check function in WxWidgets which doesn't work properly on Mac, but still has to work on Windo...

I wouldn't have guessed that If you read the Manual you would... http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/tutorial_recording_computer_playback_on_windows.html . But I agree this feature is not all that discoverable if you don't read the Manual. I don't know what can be done about that, at least until W...

Can you do an alternative patch that only has one Undo on move to top or bottom? Thanks, Steve. The Move To Bottom/Top is instantaneous now on Windows 7 for me, even with 50 tracks. I still think the first letter of "Up" and "Down" should be capitalised in Edit > Undo and Redo. ...

I like the idea of a View command that does that, though it would not not entirely solve the question of whether "Move Track to Bottom" should scroll because your solution doesn't cover people who want to move unselected tracks and still see them. Yes, and that's why the second option &qu...

undo moves the focus to the first track It's a bug: http://bugzilla.audacityteam.org/show_bug.cgi?id=510 . In your example (rename the fourth track, move it up, undo move) is it most useful for the focus to move back to the fourth track, or stay on the third track? Generally (as a sighted user) I e...

Try turning off Overdub in the Recording Preferences.

Try playing the stream you want to record in YouTube or wherever it is, then the recording cursor should start to move.

At random times the interface will lose audio sync with Audacity (starts to sound like ring modulation). If it loses sync while recording then the recorded sound is affected, but if it's just on playback it'll sound fine when I restart playback. Also see: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/faq_re...

Try downloading Chris's Compressor http://theaudacitytopodcast.com/chriss-dynamic-compressor-plugin-for-audacity/ then set the maximum amplitude to 0.7 and apply it a couple of times. Gale I have downloaded Chris's dynamic compressor and see it in my applications folder. However, I cannot drop it i...
