Hallo from Italy. I have been using Audacity for years with Windows to transform my records into files. I own since few days a brand new iMac, but I found a problem I can’t solve.
When I try to cut the usual few seconds of silence/scratches between the songs (or more between A side and B side), the tool ALWAYS cut the double or triple of the time, adding complete silence that arrives to ruin the end of the previous song and the beginning of the following song.
I did it successfully thousands of time on my old pc, without any problem, and now I tried every kind of possibility on the menu without result.
Thanks if someone helps.
Version is 2.0.5., downloaded two days ago from the official site.
To explain better, if i select 4 seconds and then I cut, the cut is 10-12 seconds long, half before the selection and half after the selection, adding a straight line.
The answer on the little popup is in italian, this is from google translator
the project is currently self-contained.
if you change the project in a state that has external dependencies on imported files, will no longer be self-contained.
Maybe important: the file I am working on was recorded weeks ago on windows pc.
