Fine words but essentially meaningless without some meat on the bones as to how to do 2) and 3). I think you added a link to a small amount of meat http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?p=220500#p220500 after I started my reply. If I missed it in the original reply, sorry about that, though m...

Not a latency or a delay issue. Try setting Project Rate bottom left to 44100 Hz. Edit > Preferences and choose "Recording" on the left. Make sure "Audio to buffer" is set to the default 100 ms. Right-click over the speaker icon by the system clock, then choose "Playback De...

The two files (for example) are now in one Audacity project as two sequential tracks and play seem-lessly. If I wanted them merged into one track, could I do that? If you have the two files above each other in separate Audacity tracks, you can then (if you still have Time Shift Tool enabled) drag t...

I propose that when Export Multiple is automatically launched by Export Multiple (which it is by default), there is an additional option in the Metadata Editor. Hide Metadata Editor for the next X files: [_] where "X" is the number of files remaining in the current Export Multiple operati...

Fine words but essentially meaningless without some meat on the bones as to how to do 2) and 3). For example if we "pass metadata through to the next export multiple file", we have to provide a solution for people who are doing export multiple of compilation albums where the metadata has t...

I have tried everything in the manual and some googles (otherwise I wouldn't be posting :-P ). Rescan does nothing as the devices are in the list and selectable, they just hang Audacity and then error when attempted to use. I tried both hosts, DirectSound crashed Audacity so I switched back to MME....

For the AIFF files I would note that the ones that would not play were files recorded earlier and not on Audacity which were normalized and then exported. As they were single songs I'm not sure how one would use the multiple files export. But probably the solution is in this function. Perhaps there...

Yes you can do this as a batch process using a Chain ( http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/edit_chains.html ).

Or import the files into the one window (you can drag them in) then CTRL + A to select them all then run Effect > Change Tempo. Then File > Export Multiple.

If you have many Audacity tracks one on top of the other in the same window, that could be part of the problem. Otherwise please give more information about the device choices you have for the output device in Device Toolbar . You may also need a driver update for the sound device. Please see http:/...
