How can I fix the pop sound that comes about if I paste something or cut stuff out in between? What is this sound called (a pop?). Was wondering if there was an audacity fix besides re-recording.

The “click” can be seen as a red vertical line if you switch to Spectrogram view (http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/spectrogram_view.html)
and the click can be repaired using the Repair effect: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/repair.html
Note that there is more than one click, so repeat the repair for each click.
The “Ctrl + R” shortcut is useful for repeating the last used effect. (http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/effect_menu.html#Repeat_Last_Effect)
Steve, thanks for the step-by-step. In Spectogram view, I highlight the red column to “repair” and get “Repair effect for short samples…select tiny fraction…” message. I’ve selected a bunch of widths and the vertical line/pop sound is not going away, getting same message. Am I doing something wrong?
You probably need to zoom in closer so that you can select a small region around the click. (see: Zooming Overview - Audacity Manual)
You only need to select the middle part of the red line like this;
Great, that helped! Highlighting the center of the column was the trick.
I find it helps to use spectrogram view to locate the click/pop and the switch to waveform view to make the repair.
