Is there a way to change the default of the normalize effect? Let's say I wanted to have it normalize to -4db every time instead of -3db as it does now, can I change that setting somewhere?

Not in Audacity 1.2.x. Audacity 1.3.4 allows you to change this value (though it doesn't store it between sessions).

hmmm that's a beta version. I've been so happy with 1.2.6
I'm worried about moving into beta territory. will I run into problems I never had before? Is it stable?

Almost certainly.

Most of the time, but nothing like 1.2.x. Shortly, a stable 1.4.x will be issued. You understand you can run both 1.3 and 1.2 on the same machine, right?

To be honest, I've had some recent issues with 1.2.6 crashing that I haven't seen on 1.3.4. I'm not sure why.
But yes, 1.2.6 is called "stable" for a reason. You'll also see a number of interface differences between the two, it's not a bad idea to at least poke around with 1.3.4 so you won't be confused when they release 1.4.0 (aka the next 'Stable').
