Hello everyone. How do you make a recording sound like all those flashback scenes in movies? I know how to do the echo effect but it doesn't sound right. An example would be 1:57 of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEo8BZ7pY4w. Thanks!

Thanks, that works really well.

Heya guys, anyone know how to make a muffled sound, like what you would hear through a wall or something? Two examples would be the kid singing The Star Spangled Banner in The Dark Knight Rises Trailer or when you here the singing in the background of The Thing trailer. Thanks for any help.

Nope, didn't find it there. Strangely, I clicked on the icon that shows a link of a chain and that fixed it. Thank you for all your help. Now, do I need to mark this as solved or something?

Yep, that's exactly what I wanted to know. However, the time lapse tool does not seem to be working. It keeps moving all of the tracks, rather than just one. How do I fix this? Highlighting the clip you want to move does not work.

Do you want to Import two existing audio files and make them play at the same time?

Yes.

Also, will choosing new stereo vs. mono make any difference?

Hello, I am a relatively new audacity user. How do I overlay two audio tracks? It's easy enough to record over an audio track, but I create a new track and use copy and paste to get a sound effect in, it 'pushes' the already existing sound back so they occur at separate times? Can some audacity wiza...
