To avoid problems with the new version (which I’ll post shortly), you should reset Audacity’s effects.
To do that:
- Ensure that Audacity is not running.
- Open the hidden folder: *Users__\AppData\Roaming\audacity*
(where “” is your computer log-in name). - Delete these two files:
pluginregistry.cfg
pluginsettings.cfg
Then go to: Users**\AppData\Roaming\audacity\Plug-Ins** and delete “PunchCopy.ny” and “PunchPaste.ny”.
After that you will need to re-enable any custom plug-ins that you have installed (they will be listed as “New” plug-ins in the Plug-in Manager).
