What's new in this version:

Improvements: Interface
- Redesigned, searchable Keyboard Preferences with Tree, Name and Key views.
- Edit Menu: "Cut" and "Delete" are now in the top level of the menu.
- Transport Menu now includes "Play/Stop" and "Play/Stop and Set Cursor" (use Keyboard Preferences to create shortcuts for "Play" and "Stop").
- Tracks Menu now includes "Mix and Render to New Track".
- Track Drop-Down Menu now has Move Track To Top and Move Track To Bottom.
- New right-click menu choice "Delete Label" to remove single labels.
- "Snap To" now offers choice of snap to the "closest" or "prior" position. Note: the previous "Snap To On" keyboard shortcut will no longer work.
- "Snap To" settings are now independent for each project. Effects
- Truncate Silence: redesigned with simpler option "Truncate Detected Silence" to shorten to the specified length without compressing silence.
- VST effects: New "Settings" dialog lets you specify buffer size (for faster processing) and enable buffer delay compensation (to prevent inserted silence). - Compensation may cause a crash in a few plug-ins.
- VST effects now support standard FXP presets.
- LV2 effects are now supported on all platforms (textual interface only).
- Import or export using FFmpeg now requires FFmpeg 1.2 or later (or libav 0.8 or later).
- New Tamil translation (largely complete).
- (Windows) FLAC exports can now exceed 2 GB in size. Bug Fixes: Interface
- Region Restore did not restore the region after using Preferences.
- Dragging selections with the keyboard or Selection Toolbar digits was very slow.
- (Windows) Help > About Audacity crashed when run in Magyar language. Effects
- Reverb and Paulstretch were missing from Chains.
- Analyze > Contrast could report very inaccurate rms levels.
- Noise Removal: Attack and decay times were half as long as set.
- Click or drag on the Timeline after Loop Play continued to loop.
- Transcription Toolbar did not play slower than 0.1x speed.
