The workaround could be scroll right with Shift-ScrollWheel (or shift-swipe) and then Shift-Click to add that portion to your older selection.

Audacity 2.1.2 has a number of little oddities like that.

My fake metronome goes from 40 to 210, so that's a grand start.
As we go.

I gotta do this when I can get to a better machine. Can you stop a real metronome "instantly", accurate to 1/1000th second? Someone once complained about the 16 MIDI instruments not all starting at the same time. The same person who volunteered an actual clockwork metronome for recording (...

There are editor programs which do not force the compression cycle and we recommend those if you want really simple MP3 editing. The instant you want production filtering or effects, you're dead.

wind degrades the high frequency content I haven't heard of that, but I have heard of someone trying to record music without turning voice processing off. Voice processing (echo cancellation, etc) hates music. Voice Processing gives music a swirling, honky effect, degrading the high frequency conte...
