Audacity Forum

Historically Audacity has not saved settings across sessions for all effects or plugins. However, Normalize and Compressor settings should be saved in the audacity.cfg settings file. If you update to the latest Audacity 2.1.0 from http://web.audacityteam.org/download/windows then all LADPSA and VST ...

@Steve/Gale/Bill/Koz: do you think we in QA should be campaigning for and additional item in the meter dropdown preferences dialog to toggle between half-height and full height? My "mystery shopper", Mrs WC, thinks it would be a jolly good idea ... I thought we discussed that and decided ...

Well, we get so few posts where people tell us that they solved their own problem that I probably missed the subtlety

So how did you fix it, exactly? What tools? An MP3 only shows the results.

Yes and Robert who replied wrote that effect.

What version of Audacity and Windows? See the pink panel at the top of this page. VLC should play MTS files with audio on modern Windows systems. Audacity's Import Raw Audio expects lossless audio. MTS files usually use lossy AC3 audio. Even if your MTS uses LPCM, it's a video file, so you can't jus...

Also if you use 2.1.0, Vynil should have a "Manage" button in Audacity. Click "Manage", then "Factory Presets", then "Defaults". Then you can see if the issue occurs at default settings. To test if default settings solve it in 2.0.6, restart Audacity. Gale

Possibly not directly related to your problem, but Audacity 2.0.6 does not support Yosemite. Please update to 2.1.0 from http://web.audacityteam.org/download/mac then report back if you still have the issue.

I'm new to this and am digitising classical LPs using a Numark TTUSB turntable, iMAc OS 10.9.3. I tore my hair out over the lack of input control then worked out an elegant (I think!) workaround. I downloaded the EZ software from Ion. It's limited in that it's aimed at MP3 files but it does have an...

Gale, to answer your question: yes, I wanted to convert m4a to mp3. I am not all too familiar with ffmpeg and the last time I used it I found it cumbersome and it gave me a headache It's not like using ffmpegX if that is what you are thinking of? If you download and run the FFmpeg installer and res...

In terms of the question that I posed at the start of this topic, "your list" is this one: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/Index_of_Effects,_Generators_and_Analyzers#effects , that is, for 2.1.1, ALL of the shipped effects are essential for inclusion in Audacity by default. IMO, essent...
