Audacity® is free, open source software for recording and editing sounds. It is available for Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows
, GNU/Linux, and other operating systems. Learn more about Audacity... Also check our Wiki and Forum for more information.

The latest release of Audacity is 1.3.6 (Beta). Because it is a work in progress and does not yet come with complete documentation or translations into foreign languages, it is recommended for more advanced users. See New Features in 1.3 for more information about the 1.3.x Beta series.

For all users, Audacity 1.2.6 is a stable release, complete and fully documented. You can have Audacity 1.2.6 and 1.3.6 installed on the same machine.

October 24, 2008: Audacity 1.3.6 released

The Audacity Team is pleased to announce the release of Audacity 1.3.6 (Beta) for Windows, Mac and Linux/Unix.

This release highlights exciting new capabilities developed by our students in Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2008:

* FFmpeg support (downloadable separately) permits import and export of a much wider range of file formats, including WMA, M4A and AC3, plus import of audio from video files
* On-demand loading of uncompressed files eliminates the wait before files can be played or edited
* Linked audio and label tracks allow labels to move with their corresponding audio when cutting, pasting or changing speed or tempo
* Hierarchical plug-in grouping for built-in plug-ins

Google Summer of Code 2008

Other experimental features: Sound activated recording; ability to save smaller, compressed project files; MIDI files can now be imported, cut-and-paste edited, then exported.

Miscellaneous: Interface improvements include a new Transport menu, and a new Preference to choose Waveform, Spectrum or Pitch view. Several bug fixes.

Because it is a work in progress and does not yet come with complete documentation or translations into foreign languages, it is recommended for more advanced users. For all users, Audacity 1.2.6 is a stable release, complete and fully documented. You can have Audacity 1.2.6 and 1.3.6 installed on the same machine.
