    Audacity v2.3.1 Released (March 8, 2018)
    Announcement
    Release Notes
    Download
    New:
    • 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.
    • Regular interval labels now support range labels.
    See: 2.3.1 New Features for longer descriptions and links on how to use the new features.

    Bug Fixes:
    Over 20 bugs that were in 2.3.0 fixed, including:

    • A crashing bug on Linux that made Audacity 2.3.0. unsuitable for Linux.
    • Crash on Mac when right clicking on label.
    • Problems with Change Pitch, including not remembering parameter values.
    See also: 2.3.1 Release Notes

    This all may not sound like much has happened since Audacity 2.3.0, but the team behind Audacity did put in a lot of work to make this happen. Thanks also to users who reported bugs in 2.3.0 and stayed in contact with us afterwards to help us find them.

    This must be one of the very best freeware audio apps ever produced and distributed. Has a good long track record as well.

    Thanks for bringing attention to a newer release.

    A fantastic piece of music editing software.
