Re: Phasing/Flanging Issue with 2.0.3 on Vista

Have not tried tapes since reloading my OS. Both the external microphone(s) and my guitar are coming through the microphone line-in on my laptop. (But I experience the same problem with Audacity when trying to record via my laptop's built in microphones.) Do you mean you reinstalled Vista? If so di...

Re: music track exports; voice track doesn't

Make sure you did not mute the voice track; muting a track removes it from export.

LAME is an "encoder" (it writes files, as opposed to a "decoder" which reads or plays them).

Re: screech or whine or squeal thing

If you uncheck software playthrough the only disadvantage is that (as well as hearing no whine) you also won't be able to hear the recording through the computer speakers while you are making it. The whine should not get recorded assuming you have the Audacity recording device correctly set to the U...

Re: Unable to action any commands

You probably just need to press the yellow Stop button and possibly also select some audio. Please see here http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/fa ... tml#grayed .

Re: switch to Spectogram display by code

@Jerome, although it's not very mentally stimulating, one way to do what you want without programming would be to duplicate the track then have one view as waveform and one view as spectrogram. This was in fact similar to what Vaughan did in his Thinklabs modification of Audacity 1.2.6, where clicki...

Re: Importing text as audio/exporting audio as text

I've got about a dozen different versions on my computer - none complete. but here is one version that works, though with strict limitations. The text file must be a list of linear values only Is your aim to produce a version that is compatible with an export type produced by Sample Data Export? Th...

Re: screech or whine or squeal thing

Then as an experiment, try recording with some other software, like GarageBand on Mac or Windows Sound Recorder on Windows. Exactly what version of Windows or Mac are you on?

Did you actually try http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... 25#p207425 ?

Re: I want to print an Audacity manual, a COMPLETE manual

Of course I'd like to have a COMPLETE Audacity manual, but since is no such thing There is a complete HTML Manual here http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/ . It is included on your computer in the Audacity "help" folder if you got the DMG of Audacity. If not, you can download it (as HTML) he...

Re: Can't load Audacity because is PowerPC

I assume you tried to run Audacity 1.2.6 (even if you also have a later 2.0.x version). 1.2.6 is a Power PC app and will not run on Lion (10.7) or Mountain Lion (10.8) which are Intel only operating systems. 1.2.6 would run on Snow Leopard (10.6) or earlier (with the help of Rosetta if it was an Int...
