Audacity Forum

installed from the exe downloader around xmas this year, and I was using it on an old laptop with vista . I'm not sure because my laptop has died the death (broken plasma screen and start up problems) If you have access to another computer such as at a public library or internet café you could down...

I have moved this to "Adding Features" as it is a feature request we have had before. As to workarounds, Audacity has "Software Playthrough" in the Transport Menu that automatically plays the recording back as you make it. The playthrough is inevitably delayed, but you cannot con...

Only the uppermost label track is processed. If you already copied and pasted the retake audio into track 1, you should de...
