Donderdag is er een nieuwe versie uitgekomen in de ontwikkeltak van de opensource audio-editor Audacity. Het programma, dat beschikbaar is voor Windows, Linux en Mac OS X, kan geluid opnemen, wav-, aiff-, ogg- en mp3-bestanden importeren en exporteren, en heeft een ongelimiteerde undo-functie. Daarnaast heeft Audacity een grote verzameling effecten aan boord, zoals fade-in en fade-out, echo, tempowijziging en ruisonderdrukking. Meer effecten kunnen eenvoudig worden toegevoegd, want het programma ondersteunt zowel vst- als ladspa-plug-ins. Het changelog van deze release laat de volgende veranderingen zien:
Bug fixes for:
Imports and Exports:Labels:
- AAC files could not be exported at 48000 Hz
- When importing multiple native file formats using FFmpeg, all files after the first reverted to using the native importer
- FFmpeg custom export window too large on 800 x 600 resolution monitors
- Projects froze if files imported via On-Demand were no longer available
- (Linux) WAV/AIFF exports were corrupted if overwriting an aliased file which had been imported using the command line
Other bug fixes:
- Cutting or deleting a region in the waveform and label track did not move the labels in advance of the cut
- Incorrect behavior snapping to labels and boundaries with Snap To enabled
- Labels can now be reversed if included with the audio selection using the command line
- When using non-English languages, Generate effects truncated the selected region
- Mice with high-precision scroll-wheels could cause a crash
- Changing recording preferences using the Transport menu did not update the menu in other open projects
- (Windows 7) Clicking in a file open or save dialog caused files or folders to disappear from the list, and file filtering was broken
