Missing menus

Post by illiviu » Thu Jun 14, 2012 10:08 am

Hello.

I am using Audacity 2.0 on a Windows 7 SP1 x32.
I do not have the "Generate", "Tracks" and "Analyze" menus, so I cannot use all plug-ins, use multiple tracks etc.
In "Effects" menu I have only Amplify, Normalize, Compressor, Leveler and Noise removal options
In Preferences I cannot see any options that can enable or disable them. The option to scan the plug-in folder at each start-up of the program has no effect.

The same problem I encountered in Audacity v.1.3.13 beta.

Does anyone have a solution ?
Thank you in advance,

Liviu

You have accidentally set Audacity to "Clean Speech" mode.
You must have done this in a previous version of Audacity because Clean Speech mode is being removed from Audacity and Audacity 2 has no way of switching CS mode on (or off).

Clean Speech mode will be set in your Preference file, so to switch it off, the easiest way will be to reset the Preference file.
See here for how to reset Preferences: http://manual.audacityteam.org/manual/h ... ences.html
