Audacity Forum

I'm on Debian Squeeze 32 bit, 3 GB RAM 2 GHz Intel Core 2. Launching Audacity takes about 3 seconds, so yes 30 to 40 seconds does seem to be very slow. Audacity takes 30 seconds to launch for me on Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit on a 1 GB RAM, 1 GHz single core netbook, but no app opens faster than 10 seconds...

I would regard it as unexpected that if you change the track number for the third label, for example, then hit ENTER, the selection jumps back to the first label. But you can arrow down to the next label you want to move?

Sorry Dave, we don't have any more time to help you here.

Bug 594 is already marked as platform independent (not just one operating system) and it is marked "P2" (the second highest priority) so it has to be fixed before the next Audacity release. That was only true when we had the previous Beta / "stable" distinction. P2 is now up to ...

the surprise for me was the difference in behaviour between selecting a point to paste into and pasting "over" the whole track.[...] I wasn't surprised it overwrote when I selected the whole track, but I assumed it would insert and move the other labels along if I chose a single point, li...

Thanks Gale. I've since taken your advice and pluged into one of the few usb ports that I have and haven't had a problem with white noise so far. Would a usb add-in card be considered a hub or the same as on board usb ports? I would assume something like a PCI card USB adaptor would be fine. The pr...
