Re: Help Across all 2x versions, May be Sound Related

Alright, adjusted that What exactly did you adjust? Any idea what audio devices I need to change? I'm using a Windows 7 computer with no external speakers or microphone, just my computer and a pair of headphones. I'm not sure if that helps, but I've seemingly tried everything else so this must be t...

Re: Error saving Project

Can you File > Save Project As to any path? If the project contains imported files, File > Open Metadata Editor and press "Clear". Let us know if that made any difference (it shouldn't do). Or Edit > Select > All, Edit > Copy, File > New, Edit > Paste and then save as another project. Agai...

Re: Help Across all 2x versions, May be Sound Related

Actually, I gave you the Audacity shortcuts assuming you couldn't see. You can post the content of Help > Audio Device Info if you like then we could say what output device you should be selecting, but if you want help using the Windows control panels or written instructions how to navigate dialogue...

Re: tape2mp3 using audacity

Hi. Have a "Tape2MP3" player, which is supposed to convert cassettes to mp3 format. It uses Audacity to do so. I followed the directions that came with the player. Audacity does not bring up the screens shown in the directions, and I cannot make it work. Any suggestions? It's a bad idea t...

Re: Will 2.0.03 measure seconds to 6 decimal places?

It is "probably" a fairly simple code change if you wish to recompile Audacity yourself. It is only a few lines of new code if you are willing to add it to the bottom of the list but re-ordering the list so that the new choice "fits in" to its proper place adds a tiny bit more c...

Re: Symbols in file names in Files->Recent

I don't see the underline on Ubuntu 12.04 using wxWidgets 2.8.12. I was testing with a build with wxWidgets 2.8.10. Looks like it was a long-standing widgets behaviour, now fixed. On Windows, 1.3.3 (widgets 2.6.3) and 1.3 7 (widgets 2.8.9) show the underline (so treating the non-displayed "&am...

Re: Does Audacity log effects?

The major objection to undo still being available after project close is still the huge and increasing amount of data needed. A new Audacity feature could save the history of project actions in the AUP file (or even save it somewhere else) without major impact on disk space, as long as actual abilit...

Re: file sizes are wacky!

i have a Macbook running 10.5.8 with Audacity 2.0.2.0. I downloaded two MP3 files, the first was 3.1 MB and the second was 1.6 MB and when I combined them in Audacity to make one file and exported it as an MP3 it is now 18.7 MB. What the heck happened????? Is there any way to get it down to 4 or 5 ...

Re: file sizes are wacky!

Um, I think mp3split doesn't join files. For that you want http://mp3wrap.sourceforge.net/ but that is command-line and has no Mac support unless you want to compile it. I don't know if Macsome or Audion join MP3 files losslessly - check them out here http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Lame_Installat...
