Accuracy of Time Scale

[Clockmaker]

As an amateur watch- and clokmaker I like to use Audacity on my iMac as an oscilloscope. I pick up the sound of the escape movement of a clock and after making a recording of, say, one half hour I compare the sound pulses with the time scale. This method alows me to adjust the clock in a fraction of the normal time. For the more accurate regulators I'd like to know the accuracy of Audacity's time scale in parts per million, for instance.
I tried hard to find an answer in all the documentation, but in vain.
Thanks in advance.

Audacity doesn't have an "accuracy." It's a bitstream manager. The accuracy of the bitstream is determined by the clock signal inside the analog to digital converter. The operation of Audacity is determined by the master clock signal inside the computer.

As we frequently point out, Audacity is a complete slave to the machine on which it's running.
