I have restored the .AUTOSAVE files into "C:UsersMeAppDataRoamingAudacityAutoSave" and all of the .AU files into the correct temp directory and then correct subdirs (ex; "C:UsersMeAppDataLocalTempaudacity_tempproject5718e00d0ae000a0s2.au") but, alas, Audacity comlpetely chokes on this. Upon reenteri...

There's a section in the manual about crash recovery that may help: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/recovery.html Yes, steve, I've seen that but I still can't recover. I'm not sure what the whole "Stereo or edited audio is unlikely to be recovered in the correct sequence" thing means as, like ...

Hmmm... I also see the pattern of which subdirectories all these .au files should be in. I can write an AutoIt program to whip them into shape tomorrow. maybe that will solve all this. I can say for certainty using import raw on one of these .au files does absolutely nothing useful.

FYI: I was able to recover 99% of the .au files using a program called recuva along with two .autosave files. Anyway, I put the .autosave files in appdata/roaming/audacity/autosave and then put all the .au files in appdata/local/temp/audacity_temp/project5718. When I restart audacity, it prompts me ...

TIMELINESS IS OF THE ESSENCE I've been using Audacity for many years and consider myself an expert user. However, I just spent two days recording multiple tracks. when I hit CTRL-S to save ... I got the "close project without saving" prompt. So, I must've fat-fingered CTRL-S. Unfortunately, I also a...

To make sure, open the Audacity Recording Preferences and set the Audio to Buffer to as low as you can without the playback or recording breaking up. OMG ... that did it!!!! Why didn't the people at FocusRite know this? FYI: Audacity sets the default buffering to 100 and strongly recommends you lea...

Ha! I wanted to use my spdif VRM box but the Roland Duo did not have SPDIF. Guitar Center does not carry the Rolland Quad and the Saffire was the only interface in that pricepoint with spdif. Anyway, back to the Roland Duo tomorrow.

If a voice on one of the tracks was a fraction behind or ahead of the master track, then the start of each word would be "distorted" to match the volume of the master track, and that would sound really weird. The plug-in would have to not only remember the volume of each sample within the master se...

FYI: yes, you are correct, I don't "need" this but it sure was nice when I had it. You see, when doing harmonies, I like to watch the wave form to know exactly when to start a note and when to release it based on the other vocal tracks previously recorded.

Everyone is going round and round trying to figure out the cause but we know what the cause is ... the FocusRite Saffire 14. Remember, all was well before I replaced my Roland Duo Capture with the Saffire. So, the Saffire is the problem. Let's focus on solutions. Does anyone know of a way to adjust ...
