Bug fixes for: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Shaped dither was corrupted and too loud on all stereo exports except FLAC. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Keyboard Preferences: some Edit and Align commands for different sub-menus |
|
|
|
showed the same name. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Recordings stopped with "Stop and Set Cursor" shortcut could not be undone. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* In locales that use comma for decimal separator: |
|
|
|
* Text boxes with slider in Nyquist effects only produced whole numbers |
|
|
|
when using comma to enter a fractional number. Text boxes without |
|
|
|
slider still have this problem. |
|
|
|
* Built-in generators produced silence after running a Nyquist effect. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Windows) When first changing to Windows WASAPI host, the input volume slider |
|
|
|
in Mixer Toolbar was enabled when it should have been permanently disabled. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Windows) On some machines, launching Audacity then recording from the current |
|
|
|
Device Toolbar input would not record until the input was reselected. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (OS X) Frequent crashes occurred on importing audio files on some machines. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (OS X) Files did not open using Finder "Open with", double-clicking the |
|
|
|
file or dragging the file to the Audacity icon. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Linux 64-bit) Fixed a crash when using Equalization. |
|
|
|
* Interface: |
|
|
|
* Region Restore did not restore the region after using Preferences. |
|
|
|
* Dragging selections with the keyboard or Selection Toolbar digits |
|
|
|
was very slow. |
|
|
|
* (Windows) Help > About Audacity crashed when run in Magyar language. |
|
|
|
* (OS X) Some full and reduced Menu Bar items were not translated. |
|
|
|
* (OS X and Linux) Fixed various interface crashes. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Linux) It was not possible to open an effect or other dialog then navigate |
|
|
|
through the dialog using TAB. |
|
|
|
* Effects: |
|
|
|
* Reverb and Paulstretch were missing from Chains. |
|
|
|
* Analyze > Contrast could report very inaccurate rms levels. |
|
|
|
* Noise Removal: Attack and decay times were half as long as set. |
|
|
|
* (OS X and Linux) Nyquist effects ran much more slowly than on Windows. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Linux) The Play shortcut did not play a read-directly WAV, AIFF or FLAC |
|
|
|
import if the warning for importing uncompressed files appeared. |
|
|
|
* Click or drag on the Timeline after Loop Play continued to loop. |
|
|
|
* Transcription Toolbar did not play slower than 0.1x speed. |
|
|
|
* (Linux) Audacity did not build if python 2 was not available. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes and Improvements: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Tracks Menu: |
|
|
|
* The separate commands that aligned track start or end with the cursor or |
|
|
|
with selection start are combined into "Cursor/Selection Start" commands. |
|
|
|
* "Align and Move Cursor" renamed to "Move Selection when Aligning". |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Label Tracks: |
|
|
|
* Labels Editor now allows empty labels to be saved on closing the editor. |
|
|
|
* TAB and SHIFT+TAB when the label track has focus now always move forwards |
|
|
|
or backwards respectively to the nearest label. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Windows) On a very few machines, the Windows WDM-KS low latency audio host |
|
|
|
introduced in Audacity 2.0.4 caused Audacity to hang or the computer to |
|
|
|
crash. WDM-KS has been removed from 2.0.5 until it can be safely enabled. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Windows and OS X) Screen reader improvements for Install VST Effects dialog. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (OS X) Audio Unit plug-ins detected by Audacity on launch are now not loaded |
|
|
|
until chosen from the Effect menu. This should speed up launch and avoid |
|
|
|
crashes at launch due to misbehaving Audio Units. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Linux) Update to PortAudio r1910 fixes memory and other bugs under ALSA. |
|
|
|
* Interface: |
|
|
|
* Edit Menu: "Cut" and "Delete" are now in the top level of the menu. |
|
|
|
* Transport Menu now includes "Play/Stop" and "Play/Stop and Set Cursor" |
|
|
|
(use Keyboard Preferences to create shortcuts for "Play" and "Stop"). |
|
|
|
* Tracks Menu now includes "Mix and Render to New Track". |
|
|
|
* Track Drop-Down Menu now has Move Track To Top and Move Track To Bottom. |
|
|
|
* New right-click menu choice "Delete Label" to remove single labels. |
|
|
|
* "Snap To" now offers choice of snap to the "closest" or "prior" position. |
|
|
|
Note: the previous "Snap To On" keyboard shortcut will no longer work. |
|
|
|
* "Snap To" settings are now independent for each project. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Linux) Applied fix for wxGTK 2.8.12 bug which resulted in loss of Audacity's |
|
|
|
menu bar (or visual corruption under Unity) on Debian-based systems. |
|
|
|
* Effects: |
|
|
|
* Truncate Silence: redesigned with simpler option "Truncate Detected |
|
|
|
Silence" to shorten to the specified length without compressing silence. |
|
|
|
* VST effects: New "Settings" dialog lets you specify buffer size (for |
|
|
|
faster processing) and enable buffer delay compensation (to prevent |
|
|
|
inserted silence). Compensation may cause a crash in a few plug-ins. |
|
|
|
* VST effects now support standard FXP presets. |
|
|
|
* LV2 effects are now supported on all platforms (textual interface only). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Import or export using FFmpeg now requires FFmpeg 1.2 or later (or libav |
|
|
|
0.8 or later). For recommended downloads of recent FFmpeg please visit: |
|
|
|
http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/faq_installation_and_plug_ins.html#ffdown . |
|
|
|
* New Tamil translation (largely complete). |
|
|
|
* (Windows) FLAC exports can now exceed 2 GB in size. |
|
|
|
* (OS X) Easier Audacity installation using the DMG: drag the Audacity folder |
|
|
|
to the /Applications shortcut, |
|
|
|
* (OS X) Audacity 2.0.6 will not officially support OS X 10.10 Yosemite when |
|
|
|
released (in particular, Apple Audio Units may not open in Audacity). |
|
|
|
* (Linux) Self-compiled builds of Audacity now search for system LADSPA |
|
|
|
effects in /usr/lib/ladspa, . |
