Audacity Forum

If I'm following your suggestion correctly, I can not hear the playback as I am selecting the area I wish to trim. I want to trim this area in an exact position so when the ring tone loops it sounds good.

I'm trying to create a ringtone by following the tutorial in the wiki. I select the section of the mp3 that I want to keep and stop playback as directed by the tutorial. As soon as I stop playback, the selection tool expands to include the entire track.

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
