i have never been so annoyed and angry to use a software.. this software is silly and useless. bad user interface. hard to use. and speed up function is nonsense... after downloading that huge size according to its competitors and trying to install and save it in mp3 format; silly software ask me to where to find lame for mp3. it is not included. because other important (!!!) functions were more dominant to add default rather than putting mp3 encoding dlls... waste of time

Version 2.2.1 removed Leveler and now MUTED TRACKS UN-MUTE THEMSELVES IF I SOLO ANY FOR FURTHER INSPECTION. This has not changed in 2.2.2 I could handle you removing solo-ing multiple tracks at once, but NOT the un-muting of tracks that I manually muted. They shouldn't un-mute unless I hit instruct them to, yet there they go: making a huge sound mess after I was inspecting something and working on it SO THAT I CAN ACTUALLY MIX THINGS PROPERLY. Honestly, why did you remove the actual usability of such a basic tool? Why even keep it as an option if in the end it means nothing? AT LEAST ADD AN OPTION FOR IT TO BE OF USE IN USER PREFERENCES The rest of the software is pretty much exactly as it used to be. There's really no big improvement other than visuals. Which personally idgaf about even half as much as I do about being able to actually mix.

It amazes me people download this malware infested version, when the real Audacity is hosted on their own website. Can people not read that this is a "mirror"?
