How to install Audacity on Android | Termux



Audacity is a free and open-source audio editing software. It is one most popular audio editor used world wide. So In this article we will install Audacity on Android via Termux.



Prerequisite:

Termux

Ubuntu installed (Click here if don't have it already, you can use any linux distro but here I am using Ubuntu)






Installation:


First login to your distro


proot-distro login ubuntu



Now install Audacity


sudo apt update ; sudo apt install audacity 



Before we start using Audacity we need to fix sound, For that need to install pulseaudio in Termux, so execute following in termux (not in proot)


pkg update ; pkg install pulseaudio 



Now execute following in Termux (not in proot) to start pulseaudio


pulseaudio --start \

    --load="module-native-protocol-tcp auth-ip-acl=127.0.0.1 auth-anonymous=1" \

    --exit-idle-time=-1


Execute following in your linux distro (not in Termux)


export PULSE_SERVER=127.0.0.1



Next we need to start vncserver


vncserver -geometry 1280x720 -xstartup /usr/bin/xfce4-session


[Note: command may vary if you use different desktop environment, I am using Xfce]



Now you can start audacity just by executing


audacity
