Re: Crash and no Joy

So is what happened that you crashed, then when you saw "Automatic Crash Recovery" and tried to recover there was a message box about invalid token at line 964? If so that line 964 error refers to "C:UsersBrianAppDataRoamingAudacityAutoSaveshake up break up - 2012-02-13 18-18-37 N-85....

Can you right-click over this link: http://lame1.buanzo.com.ar/lame_enc.dll then choose "Save Target as" or "Save link as". A window opens. Can you find your way from there using the buttons or links on the left to open the folder you have Audacity installed in - the one with the...

Re: audio disappears when applying effects

With what account are logged in - "greg" or root? Right-click over "/home/greg/Music". Is there a "Properties" choice or similar that takes you to a page where you can check or change permissions?

Re: Audacity will not start due to FL Studio?

Sorry for necroposting, but this didnt work for me, i run on vista. have tried multiple audacity revs. Recent Audacity Betas and 2.0.0 alpha (from http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=Nightly_Builds) should be able to ignore FL Studio VSTinstruments without turning off VST support in the Ef...

Re: squashed up track??

I convert it by changing the file ending to mp3 by renaming the file. That doesn't change the audio content at all. (I don't have the original 3ga now, But i'll post one up anyway) Thanks. That one imports into 1.3.14 Beta with FFmpeg 0.6.2 apparently OK as about a minute of audio. Did you try that...

Re: audio disappears when applying effects

Are you really on Linux - what distribution - Ubuntu? What is the full text for the Audacity version at Help > About Audacity? Are you seeing a warning that Audacity cannot read external audio files? That is usually the problem. See: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/File_Management_Tips#dependent O...

Re: LAME 3.99.4

Also, my experience with MP3 Encoder which now uses 3.99.4 is that the new encoder takes about half the time to encode files than 3.98, which for me is huge, since I do a LOT of encoding. I wouldn't necessarily expect that to be the case in Audacity, if an installer was available for 3.99.4. I woul...

What I'm saying is that I can add two new features to Sound Finder. What was the second one? New Feature #1 The first of these new features is the ability to ignore short sounds that occur within periods of recognised silence . This will achieve the functionality requested by the person that was re...
