Hi…I have been importing AIFF files from a protools session into Audacity 2.05. When I play them back the sound is stuttering and harsh. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance!!

OS X 10.6.8.

audacity 2.0.5.

I don’t recall whether I got if from a .dmg installer of zip.

Try Audacity > Preferences…, Recording section then adjust “Audio to buffer”.

If you are playing to an MBox, Audacity does not officially support that hardware.

If you are using some other external playback hardware, set Audacity project rate (bottom left) to 44100 Hz and set that device up with 44100 Hz sample rate in /Applications/Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup.

If there is empty space in your tracks, select that space and generate silence into it.
