One more question. If I export a 16bit 22KHz PCM WAV file to 8bit 22KHz PCM WAV file the bit rate changes. Right? For WAV files, the bit rate = (bit depth) x (sample rate) x (number of channels). So for a recording with a 44100 Hz sample rate, 2 channels (stereo) and 16-bit depth: 44100 x 2 x 16 = ...

...for "Start" and 11.836 s for "End", and Find Zero Crossings... I'm going to have to lie down for a minute. I just duplicated the track. Edit > Duplicate. Slide the new track to the right with the Time Shift Tool (two sideways black arrows) and play it. No matter where you sli...

Cheating The two halves of the original are not quite the same. Yours is a little smoother at the turnover point though.

Yes, I was typing while Koz was, and agree the transition at the end is too short compared to the one in the middle (between the two phrases).

I hope you have now saved the data you recovered to a new AUP file; please tell us if that is what you did. If you opened the AUP and imported the recovered fi...

Are you sure you have got Windows and Audacity settings exactly as they were, for example the Presonus is the default Windows recording device and Audacity host in Device Toolbar is Windows DirectSound? DirectSound is more likely to produce multi-channel audio than MME. If that does not help you cou...

I was confused for a minute because I could have sworn it was me who had suggested putting a spectrogram preferences item in the track dropdown (as opposed to the Tracks menu). Maybe I intended to but didn't get around to it. I was going to suggest putting it there because I'd like to be able to ha...

Looks like it's fixed. I followed your instructions, updating my windows audio properties to use my sound card (Realtek AC97 Audio) for both recording and playback, and resetting the cfg file. After reboot, I ran Audacity and got the same partially-drawn windows and pegged CPU. Following your logic...
