Audacity 2.1.3 comes with new scrubbing features
Audacity, the open source audio editing software, has been updated to version 2.1.3. The new maintenance update comes with scrubbing features to ease the editing process.
One of the first changes that you will notice in Audacity 2.1.3 is the Scrub Ruler and Scrub Toolbar to improve the scrubbing experience. There is also a new generator for Sample Data Import, and you can create a higher quality audio file using Change Pitch and Change Tempo effects.
The new Audacity version is powered by the SBSMS algorithm that ensures lossless content and unchanged selection length. There is also an updated click track generator that comes with Swing amount control. In addition to the major new features, the updated Audacity has included a new timer record function. The software also sends you an alert if your system is low on disk space.
Additionally, Audacity has added a function that can save you from accidentally cancelling a recording. There are also tweaks to help you mix MP3 files while exporting.
The Audacity team has developed some new keyboard shortcuts as well. You can easily move to the next or previous label by pressing the Alt + Right or Alt + Left key combinations. Similarly, the shortcut for Play/Stop and Set Cursor has been changed from Shift + A to just X.
