Re: Deleting labels with Audacity 1.3.9

Yes, I have noticed that in 1.3.9 when selecting over a label (I usually select the label track and the Audio track together) that CTRL+L to silence the audio no longer deletes the label - whereas in earlier 1.3 versions it did.

I was suprised to see that while the Vista machine recognized the USB card as an output devic...

Re: TOO MUCH BASS

You can use the Equalize effect - just create yourself a custom profile that rolls off the bass. In 1.2.x you can only control this via a graphical curve interface, where you can set points on the line and drag the curve up and down. (In 1.3.x the interface has been improved and you can choose betwe...
