Picture tells everything.

However, for those of us not perfectly familiar with the tool, what exactly, in words, did you find wrong?

I hope i’ll explain this good in english: When you change speed of part of the audio, it clips together with the other part, this is really annoying if you have many cuts in the audio, so you have to slide the rest of the audio to the right all the time to fix this. Just try it yourself, won’t take too long and you’ll understand better. Really hope this gets fixed, or i’m stuck at V2.3.3!

I don’t think anyone works for audacity that doesn’t know how the tool works.

Change Speed affects both the length of the show and the pitch of the music. Is that what you want?

Change Speed is normally used on a whole performance where there was a sampling rate error or other damage affecting the length of the show. Changing speed in the middle of a song is unusual. That is special effects and maybe you are using the wrong tool.

Why are you doing this? Maybe the tool is OK and your job is broken.

This is logged on the Audacity bug tracker.
The workaround is to press “Ctrl + i” after applying the effect. That will re-establish the splits.
