Audacity 2.1.1
Geluidseditor Audacity is een van de meestgebruikte en veelzijdigste gratis programmma's om muziek en andere audiofragmenten mee te bewerken.
Audacity 2.1.1 is eergisteren uitgebracht. In deze versie van Audacity kun je nu bij de effecten kiezen uit allerlei 'presets'. Verder ondersteunt Audacity nu 'scrubbing and seeking' waardoor je makkelijker kunt navigeren in audiofragmenten. Ook kun je plugins in Audacity 2.1.1 installeren zonder opnieuw op te starten. Ten slotte zijn heel veel verbeteringen doorgevoerd en fouten opgelost, waardoor de bewerkingen veel sneller moeten verlopen. Veel crashes zijn ook gerepareerd. Alle details kun je hieronder nalezen. De lijst met bekende problemen is trouwens nog wel heel lang bij deze uitgave.
Audacity is verkrijgbaar voor Windows Vista tot en met 8.1, Mac OS X en Linux. Het programma is in het Nederlands vertaald.
