Projects and missing audio
One big problem with Audacity is that when you transfer a project to another machine (simply getting a new computer, for instance) Audacity ‘loses’ the original audio files... “Always copy all audio into project” is meaningless in this respect. “There is no way Audacity can recover these files automatically,” it states. Well, that’s fine. But other audio editorssequencers allow you to set a new path for the audio… but not Audacity. Bad omission.

How to safely move Audacity Projects is described in the manual: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/au ... .html#move
