Changes in version 2.4.1:
Critical Bug Fix:
* Audacity 2.4.0 was released with a critical bug, (Bug 2436),
which is fixed in 2.4.1. The bug caused loss of data when using two projects at the same time.

* A new Time Toolbar showing current record/playback time has been
split from the Selection Toolbar. It can be resized large.
* Presets for more effects can be imported and exported.
* A new Multi-View mode for tracks. In this mode both
spectrogram and waveform views are shown at the same time.
* Opus available as a new audio export format on Windows and Linux.
* Easier to convert labels between point labels and range labels.
* New Loudness Normalization effect.
* New RMS measurement analyzer.

Bug Fixes
Over 100 bugs in 2.3.3 fixed, including:
* 2237 - Equalization effects have no Import or Export for curves
* 2261 - Graphic EQ sliders have no frequency labels
* 2265 - Track heights are reset to default on project re-opening
* 2303 - Playback does not start at the saved cursor position on reopening a saved project.
* 2314 - Zoom in fail when playing
This is trying to open /dev/audioX in non-blocking mode and poll() it.
This basically never works as expected, and is especially pointless with
the short reads PortAudio is doing. So don't do it.
It is also asserting some values to be returned from ioctls which the
emulation layer doesn't provide. This is also nearly entirely pointless,
so don't do it.
Recording now works in audacity.
Bump portaudio's PKGREVISION.
Improvements
Equalization effect now split into two effects, Filter Curve and Graphic EQ.
Presets (using manage button) now active/working.
Can now have two points at same frequency for steep steps.
'What you hear is what you get' for exports. Formerly the solo button
preferences could lead to differences in which tracks were exported.
Leading silence (blank space) not skipped over in exports.
Quality setting on AAC/M4A exports.
Some confusing functionality removed (better achieved in other ways)
Removed Nyquist Workbench (use built-in nyquist features)
Removed Vocal Remover (use Vocal Reduction)
Removed On-Demand aliased files (copy files instead)
Removed 'Normalize on Load' (Normalize as needed on export, instead)
Bug Fixes
Over 150 bugs in 2.3.2 fixed, including:
2112 - Crash when opening Equalization settings in a Macro
2127 - Crash deleting a track while in Record/Pause state
2176 - Crash when attempting to time shift multiple tracks
2141 - Tabbing between labels stopped working
2200 - Refusal to export some large (4GB) files on size grounds
Changes in 2.3.2
Audacity now includes the LAME MP3 encoder.
There is a new Select button in the track panel to select the whole track.
Audacity mod-script-pipe for driving Audacity from Python now comes with Audacity and it can be enabled via preferences.
Over 20 bugs fixed since 2.3.1. The most serious bug was that Audacity 2.3.1 would crash if append-recording to a collapsed track.
Changes in 2.3.1
About 25 bugs fixed (since 2.3.1)
Options and preferences:
Microfades are now an opt-in feature. They were always on in 2.3.0.
The advanced vertical zooming option is now available in the View->Zoom menu.

Many new features and over 90 bugs fixed (since 2.2.2)
New feature – “Punch and Roll Recording”
Pinned-play-head can now be repositioned by dragging
Play-at-speed now can be adjusted whilst playing.
Toolbars controlling volume and speed can now be resized for greater precision
Macros (formerly ‘Chains’) substantially extended
New Macro palette

Nyquist gains AUD-DO command
Nyquist effects are now translatable and translated
More dialogs have help buttons now
Increased legibility of trackname display
Half-wave option for collapsed tracks
Sliding Stretch
Dialog (option) for entering labels
Changes in version 2.2.2:
Improvements
* Dropout detection
Dropout detection is controlled from a setting in Recording Preferences
called "Detect dropouts".
When this setting is "on" (default setting) Audacity will detect dropouts
(brief gaps in the recording) and will insert zeroes into the recording
to keep the other good parts synchronized. These silent spans will make
the dropouts more obvious, but keep the duration of the recording correct.
When recording stops, a Warning message box alerts the user and a label track,
called "Dropouts", is added showing the lost parts, labeled with consecutive numbers.
* Improved horizontal zooming
For this release we have improved the way zooming using your mouse wheel
works and provided a new Zoom Toggle function.
* Improved vertical zooming
We have added a context menu to the vertical scale to control vertical zooming
Previous vertical zooming methods (left-click in the vertical ruler, left-drag
in the vertical ruler) remain available by selecting "Advanced Vertical Zooming"
in Track Behaviors Preferences.
* "Extra" menu
The "Ext-Bar" and "Ext-Command" menus have been consolidated into the "Extra" menu.
* Theme tweaks
The appearance and/or contrast of a few icons has been improved.
* Easier access to changing key bindings for shortcuts
For menu commands that are enabled (not grayed-out) if you hold the Shift key
and click on the sub-menu item, instead of executing the command the Keyboard
Preferences pop open at the chosen command. You can then change that (or any
other) shortcut binding.
* Language selection in Preferences
Interface Preferences has been upgraded so when selecting languages the proper
spelling of these languages is shown with accented and special characters.
Bug Fixes
* Multiple use of "Save As" to the existing open project can result in data
corruption/loss
* Crash undoing during record, using Discard button of History window
* Exporting audio in compressed formats to device with insufficient space produces
inconsistent/truncated results
* In Export Multiple, Cancel does not remove the file that is in progress when
Cancel is chosen
* Unicode page encodings fixed ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
* Crash using SBSMS pitch change at low sample rate
* (Mac) Equalization: "Telephone" curve displays a flat line, no sound on Preview
* Toolbars: open undocked if previously not shown, unless Reset Toolbars first
* Analysis effects that create labels should give focus to label track
* Control value may be out of range when using FloatingPointValidator
* Analysis effects produce false indication that a label is open for editing
* Import Uncompressed File Dialog Incorrect Reference to Menu Item
* Wave Color not grayed out in TCP dropdown menu when in Spectrogram view
* Hover indication on note track channel toggle appears on all tracks (when
they rerender)
* Installer has old logo for 2.2.1 and 2.2.0
* Un-muting with a single track unnecessarily activates the Solo button
* Applying chain to file should zoom-to-fit
Changes in version 2.2.1:
Improvements
* Waveform colorways
You can optionally change the colorway of the waveforms displayed in your project.
The setting is per track and not per project so you can have multiple colorways
in the same project.
* "Save Other" reverts to "Export" in the File menu
When we made the menu changes for 2.2.0 we introduced an entry into the File menu
called "Save Other" which led to a sub-menu for exporting various audio formats.
Many users were confused by this change and found it hard to find where they could
export audio from. So for 2.2.1 we have changed that menu entry to be File > Export.
Bug Fixes
* Release 2.2.1 was mainly a maintenance release.
Soon after the release of 2.2.0 we discovered some problematical bugs in Audacity:
Bug #1767 - Opening a second project from Mac's Finder produces a second
inaccessible instance of Audacity
Bug #1770 - Crash applying certain chain files
Bug #1783 - Preview fails when selection extends before zero
Bug #1787 - Auto-scroll stopped working in 2.2.0
Bug #1765 - Using File > Open to import audio gives wrong zoom level
and no scroll bar slider
Changes in version 2.2.0:
* Four Selectable themes provided, with new 'Light' theme as default,
plus option to customize
* Many menu changes:
* Menus Reorganized
* Extended menu bar provided
* New keyboard commands for working with clips
* Help buttons ? in Preferences, Effects, Generators and Analyzers - and
other places
* Non-Greying out of effects when no selection (and explanatory dialog
with help button)
* Playback of MIDI (and Allegro) files imported into Note Tracks is
now available.
* 'Center' option in Selection Toolbar
* Stem plots
* Major overhaul to documentation/manual including many new images and
streamlined text on landing pages for in-program help.
Other Changes
* Append-record is now the default (use Shift + Record for old behavior,
to record on a new track)
* The Esc key now cancels all click-and-drag actions. It also chooses among
overlapping mouse click targets, which is especially useful in the Multi-Tool.
* Sync-Lock button removed (use menu item or keyboard shortcut instead)
* New preferences and preference pages
* Overhaul of much code:
* Overhaul of envelope handling code to deal with some anomalies
* Overhaul of exception handling for greater safety
* New Logo
Bug Fixes
* Major work on bug fixing. 198 bugs that were in 2.1.3 were fixed for 2.2.0.
* The most serious bug fixed this time round was bug 437 which was
about what happens when Audacity is recording and runs out of storage.
* Most of the bugs fixed were more minor, such as bug 463 which was
about a case in which the numbering on the timeline could display
incorrect times.
Changes in version 2.1.3:
* Interface:
* (macOS) Support for horizontal scroll on Magic Mouse / Trackpad and for
Trackpad pinch/expand zoom gestures.
* Pinned option on waveform makes waveform move and recording/playing head
stay still.
* Timer Record options to save/export/exit after recording.
* Scrub Ruler and optional Scrub Toolbar.
* New shortcuts ALT+RIGHT and ALT+LEFT (move to labels without editing).
* Effects:
* Effects no longer grayed out when paused.
* New Distortion effect (replaces Leveller).
* SBSMS (higher quality but slower) option on Change Tempo / Change Pitch
effects.
* New Rhythm Track generator (replaces Click Track).
* New Generator for Sample Data Import.
* Nyquist effects now significantly faster.
* Other Changes:
* Upgraded the PortAudio library to v19 rev r1966. This gives Audacity
Windows 10 support.
* (Windows) DirectSound now records 24-bit samples.
* (macOS) Audacity.app now has its resources inside it rather than in a
separate folder, so installation to /Applications/ is cleaner.
* (macOS) Audacity 2.1.3 provides partial support for Sierra. Details at
http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Partial_Support_for_Mac_Sierra_in_2.1.3 .
Bug fixes:
Over 60 bugs fixed, including five longstanding bugs.
- audacity: GCC 6 wants std namespace, found via <cmath>.
- smpeg2: don't initialise unsigned with "0-1".
- libclucene/strigi: match GCC 6 (and 7, and 8, and 9.)
