Probably the simplest way is to Export a project when you have finished working on it as a WAV file. This gives you just one single file, a music file - which you can move around to anywhere you want. You can always re-open the WAV file in Audacity to work on it further later if you need/want to. An...

You are almost certainly trying to import a file type that Audacity does not support . Audacity Supports WAV, MP3, OGG and FLAC in 1.3. If this is the case you have two basic options: 1. find and use some converter software to convert your file to a type that Audacity supports 2. play the file in an...

Try using the Envelope Tool - click on the tool icon with the two pointing together triangles, white dot at the centre blue line going through it.

Then use Audacity's Export Multiple command (available from the File drop-down) to export a multiple set of WA...

Sorry I can't help you further as I'm a PC person - all I can tell you is that on PC's it works fine. The uncompressed output file it makes is a WAV and these can be loaded into iTunes ok. I would have thought that with all-Apple MAC/iTunes/iPod you would have been fine. Have you tried burning you e...

On my PC when running Audacity WTM shows 10-15% CPU usage and c. 350MB page file usage - this is on 1.3 Beta version.

Just tested 1.2 as well and shows the same.

That should be enough .... :) When you say using up all your memory - you don't by any chance mean using up all the PC RAM memory do you? If, some earlier versions of Audacity on Windows (pre 1.2.6 IIRC) had a notorious memory leak which was fixed. If you are using a pre 1.2.6 version I would recomm...
