Re: download legacy version?
Do you know any named examples, in case someone really wants that? I presume we're talking about hardware mixing?steve wrote:That is 'usually' the case (virtually "always" for consumer level sound cards), though some high level sound cards are able to handle multiple streams without help from Pulse.Gale Andrews wrote:If you want to use other audio apps while using Audacity you will have to use the workaround ...<snip>
