Free Audacity Download

Post by Roy Thomson »

Audacity:
I would like to download the Wave Editor which includes the recording feature. I am still running Windows 7.
I have used Audacity before Free and was very happy with it.
I need some help on making sure I get the right edition and the right site? It can be confusing..... for me.
Can someone offer a URL or helpful info.

Many Thanks

Roy

if you want to use it to make mp3s you need to download the "lame" codex which is linked to on their site. FYI. Just follow the instructions.

Audacity is great to get you feet wet in the recording world. When/if you are ready to upgrade, Reaper is fantastic and is only 60.00 for the personal license. https://www.reaper.fm/

Its like going from a S10 3x1 to a D10 8x8.

Wow I didn't realize Sonar was free now. That's certainly worth the price of registration!
