64-bit Mac build

The 2.3.1 release of Audacity for macOS is now a 64-bit build and will only run on modern 64-bit Macs.

Scrub Ruler

The Scrub Ruler is now turned "off" by default and is not displayed. The reason we did this was because we found too many users were accidentally clicking in the Scrub Ruler and then finding themselves stuck in Scrubbing mode.

This will only affect you if you opt to reset your preferences settings as part of the 2.1.3 installation, manually reset your preferences or install Audacity for the first time.

If you want/need to turn it back on again use either the Transport > Scrubbing and check the Scrub Ruler to be "on". Or right click in the Timeline and select Enable Scrub Ruler.

The Scrub and Seek commands are still readily available from the Transport menu.

Bug Fixes

• Windows and Linux: Intermittent truncation of the end of a recording - see Bug #2009
• Can't adjust Time Track envelope when Logarithmic scale selected - see Bug #1832
