So I just ran into this problem, I have MP3 files I’m trying to load in but they don’t load correctly and get turned into a <1 second super loud static sound. It only happens on two files, they play fine through windows media player and groove music, only audacity seems to have trouble loading them. When I try to import them it doesn’t even bring up the “copying file” loading thing. I tried slowing down the track but that doesn’t help. Could they just be corrupted files, I did download them from the same source today (OneDrive)? Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Audacity version 2.4.1, latest version of Windows
