The best workaround is to use File > Export >E xport Audio and the set the 16/24/32 bit depth that you want Next time you use File ...

Re: All features not available in Windows 10 PRO?

BTW waxycylinder I just got my laptop recently and have been finding that a lot of the online info/instructions for how to do things in Windows 10 may not be applicable to Windows 10 PRO(either that or I may not have understood things and did it incorrectly, still finding my way around things).. wo...

Re: Some audio files are blank with no waveform!

I did "save as". So what you are saying is these files are lost forever right? Corrupt means no way to get them back? I need to re-record? Sorry, yes - I think that sadly that's the case. I recall that the issue was present in 2.2.0 and 2.2.1 and was fixed after that as an emergency as so...

Re: All features not available in Windows 10 PRO?

I run Audacity 2.3.2 (and the alpha test build I have for the upcoming 2.3.3 release) on both W10 Home and W10 Professional - fully functional and works properly on both.

Re: Some audio files are blank with no waveform!

I have checked the LAME and FFMEP thing (I even paid $19.99 for this FFmep whatever it is... I was desperate) both downloaded and located. I have tried to amplify over and over. Data and aup files are together in the same file. a) LAME is now built-in into Audacity - it is only needed for exporting...

Re: Some audio files are blank with no waveform!

Did you make these "flat-line" recordings with an older version of Audacity? If so, did you use "Save As" rather than just "Save" to save the projects. We had a nasty bug in a version of Audacity a couple of releases ago whereby the use of Save As would corrupt the proj...

Re: When I try to record over a track, it always skips to the end of the track I'm trying to record over

Just Press Shift+Record or Shift+R to record on a new track. If you want to revert to the old behavior of just pressing Record or R to record on a new track by going to Edit>Preferences>Recording and checking "on" the entry that says "Record on a new track". This will mean that S...

Re: playback distortion linked to Windows WASAPI in Audacity 2.3.0

Hi Shimari, I just tested on 2.3.2 and the alpha test build I have for the upcoming 2.3.3 and I get no distortion when recording with the WASAPI host. 1) FM Radio => Edirol UA-1EX USB soundcard => W10 PC To use WASAPI I have to set the output sound device also to be the Edirol USB soundcard and this...

Re: Major Distortion Problems with Play-At-Speed

The tool I used when digitizing my LPs and 45s was (in addition to Audacity) ClickRepair - see this sticky thread: viewtopic.php?f=28&t=1994

Re: 2.3.0 Debug Error

LAME is now built-in into Audacity for 2.3.2 and all future versions of Audacity: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/new ... .html#lame

So no need to download it.
