Audacity Forum

Hi everyone, I am a long term Audacity user but his is my second post on this forum and I struggled to find a solution to my problem using the forums search or Google. I used Audacity 2.2.2 up until now but I'm getting notifications from macOS that 32-bit support will end soon. I previously tried 2....

Hi, I am a long term Audacity user but his is my first post on this forum and I struggled to find a solution to my problem using the forums search or Google. I recently installed version 2.3.1 and wanted to normalize a track. Usually (with Audacity 2.2.2) I went to Effect -> Normalize. Then I tab in...

when I try to download it I am immediately asked if I want Audacity 2.31 to be installed. Are you saying that when you click "download" on this page it asks if you want to install Audacity? ...Hard to believe! just downloaded Audacity 2.31, I assume you mean 2.3.1, but you wrote 2.31 twic...

Sorry no clue where to post this. I think they need a good software tester or other wise this would not have happened. On the home page scroll down to A Load of Features then click on "Plugins".......... boom 404 error 404 Oops! That page can’t be found. It looks like nothing was found at ...

Wow thanks Koz, for the info and links! That's a lot more than I want to do - I hope it won't come down to all that. : -/ Yes for audiobooks, and I just make sure to use the quality standards ACX says we need to use. I want to make sure I understand what you're saying about noise reduction. What I m...

I believe that James (Mr Macros-dev) has plans for adding Export and Import buttons to the manage Macros dialog. I would certainly like to se...

Indeed, I think you're right Koz. This wasn't an exhaustive search. I just know someone is going to ask how to post a Macro and I should know where they are. Hash. I assume CR LF ends the comment. And that's not in the Manual (yet) either ... I'm going on extrapolation of forum comments. I don't kn...

In my case, I also downloaded the zip file of audacity manual and unzipped it in a folder as "audacity-manual-2_3_0".
By using the free "Agent Ransack" that I had already I can search a word or an expression in any folder on my lap then open the file (here html) of interest.

Audacity doesn't encode MP3. It turns the work over to the Lame software that you had to install as a separate tool. Lame, in turn, is a simulacrum of the until now licensed software from Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft. Anyone could play an MP3, but you needed a license to make one. Couple all that with MP...

The release version of the manual does not have a built-in search engine. However, you can easily search the on-line version using Google. For example, if you want to search for "crossfade tracks", use this as the search term: site:https://manual.audacityteam.org/ "crossfade tracks&qu...
