Hi!
I have used stereo track with example of Sample data mentioned in Manual, but It doesn’t work.
Please, could You explain me, why It doesn’t working properly?
Also, sometimes I have problems with importing sample data, because It doesn’t play me anything.
How long those samples must be to export It and what to do with stereo tracks?
Thank You.
Marco Oros
Please post the text file that you are trying to import.

OK, here is this example of stereo track.
0.00000 -0.00000
0.10000 -0.10000
0.20000 -0.20000
0.30000 -0.30000
0.40000 -0.40000
0.50000 -0.50000
0.60000 -0.60000
0.70000 -0.70000
0.80000 -0.80000
0.90000 -0.90000
1.00000 -1.00000
If you are using Audacity 2.1.3 you may be hitting a bug in Nyquist.
A result of the bug is that for stereo, it is necessary to have an actual time selection in the stereo track.
The bug is fixed in the current development code.
OK, but how to fix this problem?
With Audacity 2.1.3, to import stereo sample data:
- Add a stereo track (Tracks menu > Add New > Stereo Track)
- Select part of the track (click somewhere near the middle of the track and drag to the start so that there is a highlighted selected region.
- You should now be able to use Sample Data Import.
If you still have problems, please describe in detail what you are doing (step by step) and what is happening. I can’t see your machine, so I only know as much as you tell me.
OK, here is this example of stereo track.

0.80000 -0.80000

1.00000 -1.00000
Is that the whole file?
If so, you won’t hear anything (except maybe a “click” or a “tick”. CD audio has 44100 samples per second and some lower quality formats have 8000 samples per second. You’ve only got 11 samples.
