Audacity 3.6.2 has been released. One of the highlights is the addition of a "Legacy" effects section, which is sure to bring some nostalgic vibes.
Not only that, but this patch release also takes care of pesky bugs and resolves various issues. It tackles problems with cloud projects, stereo-to-mono splitting, multi-channel OGG and Wavpack import, crashes after recording long sessions, and CPU maxing when minimized. Some other changes have been made, like consolidating the time track range dialog into a single one and reverting the selection change behavior when importing a clip.
