Audacity

What can you do with Audacity?

Record and edit voice, podcasts and music with a free, open-source multitrack audio editor.

• Record microphone or system audio tracks
• Trim, split and arrange clips on a timeline
• Apply effects and export a finished audio file

How to install Audacity

1. Open the official publisher page using the button on this page.
2. Choose the installer that matches your operating system and processor where the publisher offers more than one option.
3. Review the current requirements and complete the publisher's normal installation steps. Avoid third-party download mirrors.
4. Launch the application and test a small, non-critical file before starting important work.

Your first useful task

Connect or select your microphone, record a short test, remove unwanted silence and export a copy. Listen to the exported file before deleting the project.

Before you choose

Choose Audacity for waveform-based recording and editing. It is not a full video editor, and complex music production may need a dedicated digital audio workstation.

GetFree4U does not host, bundle or modify installers. Keep original files and review the result before replacing anything important.
