I am saying that in the selection after the crossfade (now 2s to 5s) I can only hear tone (which is visibly and audibly slightly fading out) from 2s to 3s. I hear no noise until 3s. yes, that's correct, but a significant difference between the two is that when there is a split, the first song will ...

Did you open ALSAmixer, F4 for capture devices, use arrow keys on your keyboard to move to the device you require, then press SPACE on your keyboard to set that device to CAPTURE? The screenshot shows how Gnome ALSA mixer is set up - Realtek is selected. [...] I'm trying to record streaming sound f...

I don't think it was recognizing the Apogee mic since it hadn't been showing up in the dropdown menu until we deleted the files. Assuming it uses the lightning port, then if you connect it after Audacity is open you will have to use Transport > Rescan Audio Devices in the Audacity menu bar. Gale

I had discovered that just starting Repeat-Play (shift-space) and stopping it anywhere in my 93 minute project put Audacity in the crippled-auto-scroll state.

I suggest you quit Audacity, delete the file Users\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming\Audacity\pluginregistry.cfg, then move all your VST plugins to your Desktop ...

Even if you are a podcaster, I moved this to the Windows board as it is more likely to help other users if posted here. Uninstalling and reinstalling Audacity by itself never changes anything. To reset Audacity settings, choose "Reset Preferences" half way through the Audacity installer, t...

I don't hear that in your demo case in the complete cross-faded selection Do you mean the "with-split.wav" or "without-split.wav"? I can't follow what you're saying. The "with-split.wav" or the steps I understood you were doing: where selection before crossfade with sp...

I don't understand this, sorry. All those I looked at have DC output.
