I have just downloaded the software and dragged and dropped a test track of my own while playing every few minutes a voice announces that this is a demonstration is this normal can it be removed ??
Thanks Dave
Try downloading it from the authorized location: http://audacityteam.org/download/
You have either not downloaded Audacity or downloaded it fro a site that charges (or tries to charge) for it. From our own site the download is free and definitely not a demo.

I am on a Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63) I downloaded Audacity from the website version 2.0.30
Thanks Dave
That is not normal for Audacity. There is no demo version of Audacity, The official downloads are the full release version.
Details can be important. The current version of Audacity is β2.0.3β. There is no β2.0.30β version of Audacity, so if you really do have version β2.0.30β then it is not Audacity.
You can check the version number of Audacity by looking in the βHelp menu > About Audacityβ.
If β2.0.30β was just a typing error, then please tell us, did you download audacity-macosx-ub-2.0.3.dmg or audacity-macosx-ub-2.0.3.zip or something else?
No that was a typing error its 2.0.3 loaded from Audacity.source forge .net

So what happens if you record from somewhere, or even record silence, and then play that back - do you still get the βdemoβ?
What Iβm getting at is maybe that audio file is suspect - where did it come from?
