I’d quite like to use the package Audacity for wave file editing, as I’m running as much as an open source music setup as I can get.

Yet I’ve not been able to get it to work on either the Windows platform or two Linux distros, KXStudio and DreamStudio. Every other audio program works fine, Jack, PulseAudio and ALSA.

What’s really getting my goat is that my 2000-era copy of Cool Edit Pro doesn’t seem to want to work on Wine, odd as most more modern programs such as Reason seem to work OK, with a bit of tinkering.

I used to use Audacity on a linux box a couple of years ago and it was great. But admittedly I’ve been using a Mac since then. I hope you can find a way to make this work. I’m a very big fan of open source.
