What's new in version 2.4.2

  • Easy configuration reset: A new command has been added to the Tools menu: Tools > Reset Configuration. This resets your Audacity configuration, preferences, export settings and toolbars, to default settings.
  • MP3 exports and imports without padding: Audacity now supports LAME's gapless playback info, allowing MP3s to be exported and imported without additional padding. Other applications that support the LAME tag, for example audio player applications, will be able to read MP3 files exported by Audacity without the padding.
  • Over 30 bugs fixed.
