# New features in Audacity 3.0.4

**This page is an overview of prominent new functionality that has been introduced in Audacity 3.0.4**

**Version 3.0.4 is a hotfix release.**

### Contents

Fixed a bug with envelope points, which could multiply uncontrollably and cause Audacity to crash. In particular:

* [#1476](https://github.com/audacity/audacity/issues/1476): Envelope points are multiplied when using Filter Curve EQ or Graphic EQ
* [#1477](https://github.com/audacity/audacity/issues/1477): Filter Curve EQ will crash if there is an envelope point outside of the selection

### Updating from Audacity 2.x to Audacity 3.x

With the release of Audacity 3.0.0 the project file structure of Audacity was changed significantly with the entire project contained in a single unified database file.

If you have already updated to any 3.x version you should already be aware of this.

But if you are updating from any earlier 2.x Audacity version please read **Updating from Audacity 2.x to Audacity 3.x**.

Audacity 3.x can usually open AUP files created in older 2.x.x versions of Audacity, but saving the project in 3.x will prevent it opening again in Audacity versions prior to 3.0.0.

* Note that this will leave behind the old **AUP** file and its associated **\_data** folder which you will probably want to delete to recover disk space.
* Audacity version 3.x should be able to open projects from Audacity 1.1 onwards - but not from 1.0

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.audacityteam.org/au3/additional-resources/changelog/older-versions/audacity-3.0.0/audacity-3.0.4/new-features-in-audacity-3.0.4.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
