Generally, to edit part of or all of one track, you need to "select" where the edit goes. See: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/audacity_selection.html For this specific case: 1) Click on the waveform of the track at the point where you want to insert the silence. 2) Press "Ctrl +...

Connect the USB device and then look in the Windows Sound Control Panel to check that it is enabled as a recording device. If Windows can't see the device, then Audacity will not be able to. If it's not showing up in the control panel, try a different USB lead and/or a different USB socket. Also you...

Do you mean a separate (Nyquist) plug-in? I think that heneric was thinking of C++, which would probably be better for speed unless someone writes a fast primitive for Gaussian noise in Nyquist. Variance might be OK, but I wouldn't allow samples > +/-1.0. For 32-bit float, values greater than 0 dB ...
