When you switch back from a spectral selection tool to selection tool, the spectral selection will disappear from spectrogram, won't it? No. I'm suggesting that if you click and drag on a track in spectrogram view with the "normal" ("time") Selection tool, a "normal" (...

We did used to have a moonphase bug whereby Audaciy TR carried on recording past it's pre-set termination date/time, but I have bot experiences this for years now. The bug is still open http://bugzilla.audacityteam.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42 - this is the third apparent report in 2.1.2 since release. I...

Disconnect the zoom from the computer and use the menu on the H5 to set it to multitrack. It's on stereo by default. See page 72 of the manual. After that, reconnect the Zoom and it will appear with 4 channels in Audacity. You will need to "rescan for audio devices" under the Transport me...

If you were seeing our custom 404 page as intended http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/404.html there is no "return" link. I chose the wrong words. Sorry. It's the link "Go to Home Page of Manual". I does what it says, only I was coming from the tutorials page. Seemed counterintuit...

A USB 1.1 or 2.0 device will of course only work at that speed even if connected to a USB 3.0 port.

If you look in Users\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming\Audacity\audacity.cfg, your modified keys are listed in the [NewKeys] section. Now that you mention the CFG file, there are two file PATHS defined: DefaultOpenPath = E:\\- MEDIA 720\\- RADIO SHOWS\\ [ Export ] Format=FLAC Path =E:\\- MEDIA 720\\...

Audacity doesn't examine/ retrain what folder a drag-and-drop came from? As I already said, "Export Audio should also open at whatever DefaultOpenPath is, but due to a longstanding bug, it doesn't." Application Notes even See http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Release_Notes_2.1.2#Imports_a...

Spacebar Play/Stop is essential for editing no question, but one cannot effectively Record and add labels with this configuration IMHO. This is incorrect. You can use SPACE to add a space in label text while recording, as long as the label is still open. The problem may be you are using RETURN or E...

Just delete your Audacity.cfg file and then restart Audacity. In other words, this does the same as enabling the Reset Preferences box in the Audacity installer which I have suggested several times. Run the installer and in the "Select Additional Tasks" screen, put a check (tick) in the &...
