Re: backing track present on new recording track

Is it something to do with the backing track being an MP3 format? No. Audacity doesn't edit MP3. It converts everything to its own internal sound format. What do you have for a recording device? You have to be recording directly from your microphone or soundcard, not a made-up, fake device such as ...

The circumstances around this recovery are complex Can we assume you can't find the AUP file? Was this an edited project? Were you in the middle of editing or production? If so, you no longer have a show or any automatic path to recovery. The AU files are six-second snippets of music or sound. You ...

Re: newbie seeks recommendations

Re: How to close multiple tracks from Audacity window?

"Tracks menu > Remove Tracks". You can also use this after "Ctrl + A" (Select All)
