Re: Missing Audio Data Block File(s)

Would be nice is Audacity would show you a "saving progress" bar then if it takes so long to save a project. It only does that if it is going to take more than a few seconds. It always tell you in a message at the bottom when the project has been saved, but the message is replaced if you ...

Re: Driver compatability issues.

I use a Yamaha MX49 keyboard which has bidirectional USB for pure digital recording, so the synth actually acts as an external USB sound card. Steinberg provides the Yamaha USB Driver which I have used successfully with Audacity in the past. It's easier to call up Audacity to record my inspirations...

Re: project file - can't open - data file problem

Do you know why the data is missing? If you have a really old version of Audacity it could be an Audacity bug. When you have resolved the problem, make sure you have the latest Audacity 2.1.2 from http://www.audacityteam.org/download/windows . Don't choose "Treat missing audio as silence (perma...

Re: Certain files saying I'm importing them when I'm not

it says I'm importing them when I'm not. I think it does that if it can't find the _DATA folder. No - if it can't find the _data folder, it will say that. When it says you are importing and you are not, it means the AUP file is corrupted (or can't be read correctly). You could attach the AUP file, ...

Re: Why won't Audacity work on my recording?

I am not an audio engineer so someone else can help you if they want to. ;) However you want the full gamut of removal - clicks, general steady noise and other disturbances and distortions. Your sample does not contain "noise only" that you can use as a Noise Profile, so you can't do Noise...

Re: Unable to Record Stereo From Ion Turntable in Windows 10

It would be better to look at Reliability Monitor or Event Viewer to determine what the faulting module is. If you can't recall the time it last happened, you could trigger it again. If you don't use the Touch Pad, it won't hurt to uninstall it, but it may not be the cause of the problem. When you u...

Re: Consider a project of only unmodified tracks to be "clea

Steve and Peter are opposed to hiding settings in audacity.cfg and Edgar (" I absolutely abhor "hidden" options! "). It would be quicker to list who thought it a good idea. Sounds like a consensus then. But if so, we have to include those hidden "beep settings" in Auda...
