Re: Help with bit rate.

I assume you mean the MP3 bit rate for export? If so then go to Edit > Preferences > File Formats and the bottom section of the dialogue box is titled " MP3 Export setup ". Provided that you have already installed LAME and pointed Audacity to it (necessary for MP3 export) you will be able ...

Re: cutting mp3's for ringtones

Re: 1.3.4 crashing at 1hr 28 min of audio capture?

You're not by any chance recording over an existing project that is 1hr28mins long are you? Rather than starting a new project?

Just a thought .....

Buy hey, isn't 1:28 enough for you C90 cassettes?

And yes I'd have thought that 176gig would be enough ......

Re: HELP! beta 1.3 won't uninstall

I's possibly because the uninstall hasn't removed your Audacity Preferences settings file audacity.cfg - in Windows this is stored in Documents and Settings<user name>Application DataAudacityaudacity.cfg Try deleting this file and Audacity will return to its first bithday, as it was "shipped&qu...

Re: Recordings play back at slower speed

The probable reason that you can't monitor through your speakes because the USB device has hijacked the entire audio on your PC, both input and out (they mostly all do that) - and as your USB device does not have speakers you won't hear anything (unless, as you say, you connect your headphones to th...

Re: help

It shouldn't do, it should push out the rest of the track - but there is always the Undo command if it does - and for safety's sake until you are sure take a backup copy of your project first (SAVE AS - under a slightly different name for the backup).

Re: Splitting without "hearing" the "breaks"

jossi-t,

it sounds like your MP3 player is putting the breaks there for you. iPods do this too, but on those there is a setting for "gapless playing" - my guess is that if you read your manual your MP3 player will have something similar.
