Audacity Forum

Audacity is an "audio" application. "MIDI" is not "audio".

Audacity does not play MIDI. You need to use a program that supports MIDI sequencing to do that.

For what it's worth, whenever I use Auto Duck, which is not very often, I can't remember which track should be at the top and which one below, so I have to either test it to find out, or look in the manual. "Control track" is not a standard Audacity term. I believe the term was coined by t...
