DeEssed. Saved. Every time you Save (Project), Audacity steps on the original project with the corrections. During production, it's good to Save As a different project name , so it stops making changes to the original show. Even further, it's good to Export the work as a perfect quality WAV (Micros...

But thanks, will check it out. I don't think Labels is going to do what you want, but read up on it. Index marks burned into the sound file is what most people want, but the native WAV format doesn't allow that. That's the warning that it's going to fall apart when you leave the recorder.

Olympus WS-832. Cool. I have two. Hold on to them with white knuckles. If you search for that model number now, they push you off to a different model that's much simpler (no more cool tricks) and doesn't have WAV support. Such as giving the ability to add index marks. Audacity will do that on the ...

You do know how to do the scratch tests, right? Scratch each microphone and announce where you are?
