Audacity Forum

I have a few song tracks that I've recorded of my band and want to have them appear as "live" recordings. So I also have a long track of background crowd noise which I want to overlay all my exports. Finally I have an "applause" track that I move to the end of the selected song track. I then select ...

About 5 years ago I posted this same question and received several "me toos" wondering the same thing. Consensus was that it might be available in the new 2.0 version. Well, it doesn't look like it made the cut in V2 and I still have dozens of effects that I have no idea what they do and they take u...

There's a plugin supplied in Audacity that is as least as confusing as most others - the Surround Matrix Encoder.

I have the option set for "close" to NOT exit the app now, bu...

I have a notebook that I do field recording with and store the raw tracks in a project. When I get back to my desktop I want to synchronize both computers. Even though I store my projects in the same folder on each computer (d:audacity projects) the synchronization looks weird. It shows folders like...

There are over a hundred effects (beyond the built-ins) available in Audacity. And whenever I want to use one, I end up scrolling for several minutes through the list (I usually forget the exact name of what I'm looking for) in order to get what I want. Is there any way to create subfolders (sub-men...
