Sorry, no. I've only been using Audacity since July.

Re: Two Audacities?
Very odd indeed.
Re: Two Audacities?
Thinking about it, if my situation is so extremely unusual, shouldn't re-installing Audacity take care of the problem? No one else seems to have this problem but we all are likely downloading from the same place. If this is a one-off deal then a new Audacity shouldn't give me the same problem again, no?
Re: Two Audacities?
If it's something about your computer that is causing the issue, then reinstalling will make no difference.
Give it a go and let us know what happens.

Re: Two Audacities?
You know, It's working so well and I've put some time into making it exactly the way I want it, thanks to all the help I've received from this forum. I guess I can live two Audacities until someone figures out what's wrong and how to fix it.

Re: Two Audacities?
Don't you have to dump the config files too, to get a clean, new Audacity?
If it's not too late. You can scramble your tools by clicking on the left-hand edge steering bar and pushing it around. In this instance, I pushed the playback bouncing sound meter from where it was (under the recording meter) as far up-left as I could.
Audacity has to know where the far up-left is for this to work. Does that work for you?

Re: Two Audacities?
Yes, and that's why I chose to hang on to what I have. All my tools are arranged to my liking, the components are all working together and the recordings I'm making sound great. I'll live with it until someone finds the answer.kozikowski wrote: ↑Thu Sep 10, 2020 9:46 pmDon't you have to dump the config files too, to get a clean, new Audacity?

Re: Two Audacities?
And that's the exact problem with having a unique, special condition.I'll live with it until someone finds the answer.
