but unless you can find official documentation that explicitly states that vbr-old is deprecated or obsolete, I fear that we may be fighting a lost cause. If "the new mode is currently recommended due to both the speed and quality increases" isn't good enough, what do they want? Who choos...

Now you have clarified you want MP3 user presets and not additional exotic MP3 options, I noted your "vote". Of course that does not mean that it will be done. As it says on http://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=LAME reports of artifacts when using the new mode do exist No details on ...

You don't understand that in the same time, with more than 10GB of free space, audacity takes 1min15sec to amplify 15min of sound (which I looked in the history of undo/redo equals 300MB) while I need only 15seconds to write 300MB on my hard drive with a small test program. Thus, there is a problem...

I have tired two other USB cords that I know work. I am still getting the screeching noise and instead of waves jumping up and down, there is a solid blue pattern. Any other suggestions? Are you sure you still have Audacity set to record from the USB Audio CODEC? Try doing without Transport > Softw...

Thanks for the file. To be clear, is this the "dual bit depth" file created by Audacity? I don't have any tools that would verify the different streams in your attached file, unless presumably I download Eac3to. If Audacity could see different streams in the file you attached, it would sh...

Thanks for the good information. Look at Edit > Preferences... then "Directories" at where your Audacity temporary directory is and how much space is on the drive. Each 50 minute recording is about 1 GB by default (if stereo) and each edit of that complete recording takes another 1 GB. The...

I am using Audacity 2.1.1 - just downloaded from the .dmg installer. i'm running OS X Yosemite - Version 10.10.5 It worked once and I am still learning how to split tracks. But this pause button either not working with record button or causing it to crash is new to me. I think there could be a cras...

Please, take a look at the pink panel at the top of the page and give us that information. When I try to export using the external program, I copy paste this: ffmpeg -i -acodec alac "%f" into the options box. But I get this error: ffmpeg -i -acodec alac "/Users/tracy/Music/iTunes/iTun...

Not sure what I am doing wrong I have a left channel and a right channel that I want to combine into one track but I can not choose the Make Stereo option? HELP please!!! What version of Audacity and OS X? See the pink panel at the top of the page. Is it "Make Stereo Track" that you are t...

I think it would be interesting, first, to understand why it takes ~1min to amplify in audacity while I need only 15seconds to write 300MB of datas, there should be an important loss of time somewhere ? You (and Peter when he tested 2.1.0) are the only ones who found Amplify might take an excessive...
