Audacity v4.0.1

👉 Free, open-source, multi-track audio editor and recorder for recording, editing, mixing and producing audio.

Audacity is a powerful, free and open-source audio editor and recorder for Windows, macOS and Linux. It can handle everything from quick voice recordings and simple edits to multi-track music production, podcast creation, audio restoration and more involved sound projects.

Audacity provides a visual waveform-based editing environment where audio can be recorded, cut, copied, moved, trimmed and arranged across multiple tracks. Music, speech, sound effects and other recordings can be combined into a single project, with precise control over individual clips and their placement on the timeline.

The program includes a wide collection of audio processing tools for adjusting volume, compression, equalization, pitch and tempo. Noise removal and repair tools can help clean up recordings, while delay, reverb, distortion, modulation, fading and other effects provide additional options for shaping sound.

Real-time effects can be applied without permanently altering the original audio, allowing settings to be adjusted while continuing to work on a project. Effects can be applied to individual tracks or to the master output. Audacity also includes a plugin manager for enabling, disabling and organizing available effects.

Audacity supports third-party plugins and includes support for VST3 and Nyquist effects. Optional FFmpeg support expands compatibility with additional audio formats. Finished projects can be exported to common formats such as WAV, MP3, FLAC and Ogg.

The program is useful for recording microphones and other audio sources, digitizing older recordings, cleaning up noisy audio, editing interviews, assembling podcasts, creating sound effects, working with music and preparing finished audio for publishing or archiving.
