Thank you..I work off Windows 10 and the above version kept on crashing since I downloaded it..This has also been fixed by a new update that I installed two days ago.

Hi How do I reduce noise in the background of a mp3 I have recorded with music in the background fading in and out when I speak? Also the music sounds quite tinny? Is it possible to increase the base to give it a more balanced sound. using Audacity? Would be grateful for any advice as new to Audacity and creating courses and meditations for an App which require top quality recording without going to the studio. Kind regards

*After successfully installing 3.2.1, the 'normalize' option went missing from the effects list. In fact, the list that does appear is but a fragment of the former listing. Can you advise?*

[@LearnAudacity]

Make sure it didn't get disabled somehow.

What I can't figure out is where the play-at-speed toolbar is? In View it shows it's enabled, but it's nowhere to be found.

[@LearnAudacity]

it should be at the bottom of the screen. It defaults there now but you can still move it.

Hello friend, do you know how to do a "Loop Crossfade" using Audacity?

[@LearnAudacity]

I've never done it

[@nyeimjones7982]

In audacity 3.2.0 when i stack multple plugins on multiple tracks it wouldnt render properly until i exported audio. and whenever I used meldaauto pitch it wouldnt render properly. These are major bugs audacity should fix asap

[@LearnAudacity]

You should report that on the users forum.

[@mrexplainer2417]

where is the cut copy paste tools. I have emotional attachment to the cut tool

[@LearnAudacity]

They're under the Edit menu. The keyboard shortcuts are there too.
