The idea here after all is to allow selection of (only) the focused track Is that "it"? The thing that you want to achieve as a single shortcut? If so, then I think you would need a little "Nyquist plug-in" to do that. If that's "it", then I can show you how to do that...

Allow [Ctrl + Home/End] to move cursor to start/end of track instead of project

Hold the Shift key down, and while holding it down type "j" then "k".

I need the track to be the only one toggled What do you mean "the only one toggled"? The steps that I suggested will do the same as clicking the "Select" button on a track. Is that not what you want? I could indeed achieve what I want with a macro, but only if there was a comman...

Create a Macro containing the command "Select Track Start To End" (https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/macros.html)
You can then create a keyboard shortcut to your macro. (https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/key ... ences.html)

A simple way to get the peak and RMS levels right, is to first adjust the RMS level to around the middle of the required range, then check the peak level. If the peak level is too high (it usually is), then you can reduce the overall level a bit so that the peak level is closer, but ensure that the ...

There are many ways to measure RMS, but in all cases they are a kind of "average level". Audacity's tools measure "Z-weighted" (also known as "unweighted" or "zero weighted") RMS. ACX specifications say that they also use this method. Other forms include A, B,...

There are two commonly used types of "peak" measurement. The most commonly used is the absolute highest (dB) sample value. This is what Audacity's tools measure. I believe this is also what ACX use. The other is called "Real Peak". This is usually a small fraction of 1 dB higher ...

Debian uses PulseAudio by default. If Pulse is not available in Audacity then there's something weird going on. Please post your "Audio Device Info" (see: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/hel ... stics.html)
