Audacity 2.0.4 Final

September 6, 2013

Changelogs:

Bug fixes for:

- Keyboard Preferences: Shortcuts for Generators, Effects and Analyzers were not exported. All imported shortcut changes were discarded.

- Equalization curves were corrupted in Graphic EQ mode after switching to/from Draw Curves or after running the effect then reopening it.

- Change Pitch displayed corrupted values when reducing pitch or editing "from" Frequency. Detection was very inaccurate at high sample rates.

- Bass Boost no longer clips if the track contains 32-bit audio.

- Auto Duck was excessively slow on older machines.

- (Windows) Exported MP3 comments tags were not seen by Windows programs.

- (Windows and OS X) Audacity crashed if you used system quit before file import was complete.

- (Linux) Equalization crashed Audacity if the XML file was corrupted.

- (Linux) When configuring effect parameters in "Edit Chains", "Preview" (not intended to be functional) caused a crash.

- (Linux) LICENSE.txt and README.txt were wrongly installed in /usr/local/share/doc instead of /usr/local/share/doc/audacity/ .

- Accessibility: ENTER did not toggle selectedness of a label track unless a label was selected.

- Numerous other interface fixes.
