Anybody using Audacity? I had to use a Win10 machine to do some
recording this morning. When I got home I went to copy the .aup file and
directory to my Xubuntu machine. What I found was there isn't a .aup
file and folder, but instead a .aup3 file. I went back to the Win10
machine and tried to save as the old version, but that feature is not
available. It looks like all I can do is export the project to a sound
file, copy the sound file to my Xubuntu machine, and import that file to
my old version of Audacity.
<grouse mode on>
Why upgrade a program and not make it possible for an older version of
said program to open the project?
<grouse mode off>
From https://fileinfo.com/extension/aup3 it looks like this happened
back in March of this year. I have version 2.3.3. The Win10 machine has
version 3.0.4. Synaptic does not show version 3 on my Xubuntu machine. I
hesitate to download the Linux version of 3 without knowing what will
happen to my existing Audacity projects done with 2.3.3.
Advice appreciated.
