Audacity Forum

In other words, when you import a file, Audacity defaults to expanding it to 32-bit float and that is what you are shown to left of the blue waves - the bit depth of the audio in the track, not the bit depth of the original file. 2.1.0 is old now. You can get the current 2.1.2 release here: http://w...

It always helps to tell us which version of Audacity you are using. Please see the pink panel at the top of the page. If you are using 2.1.2 there is a bug listed in the 2.1.2 Release Notes When exporting or rendering a longer mix and one or more tracks are much shorter than the others, the progress...

yea i have 3 because the original file i unzipped it my version is 2.1.0 first it says its missing 23 files but the data file is some times not even found There is no data file.

We don't know what version of Audacity joaquingch is using.

Have you turned off Windows recording enhancements ? These can be a source of volume fluctuation. Are you recording one track over playb...

I started a new topic for you. It gets too confusing otherwise because relevant details may differ between the user in that other topic and you. You did not tell us what version of Audacity you have and where you got it from. Please see the pink panel at the top of the page. I recommend the current ...

Just to add that restarting Audacity will only get rid of the Hard Limiter menu entry if you have at least opened Effect > Add / Remove Plug-Ins... . So do that, ESC or Cancel to dismiss the Plug-In Manager dialogue, then restart.

None of them have the balance to either side That's not what I said. If you touched any of them, Audacity will force a stereo show in the background and not tell you, even if you put the controls back to the middle. That is not correct, Koz. It would be a bug if it was so, would it not? To make sur...

In my opinion, if you have time, you should make comparisons and trust your own ears for which software is best. For anything other than slight noise I would tend to prefer Goldwave because the "sweet area" (where there is a good compromise between noise reduction and not harming the sound...
