Requirements

Install Python 3.9+
Install Audacity 3.4.2+
Audacity - Enable mod-script-pipe

Run Audacity
Go into Edit > Preferences > Modules
Choose mod-script-pipe (which should show New) and change that to Enabled.
Restart Audacity
Check that it now does show Enabled.
This establishes that Audacity is finding mod-script pipe and that the version is compatible.
