Ok to make this a bit easier, I tried modifying the Audacity shortcut to add the blocksize option but Windows said that it was invalid. So I created a batch file to run it with the option but it says: D:"C:Program Files (x86)Audacity 1.3 Beta (Unicode)audacity.exe -blocksize 2127800" '&qu...

It always happens when I get to the end of a project and try to delete the last few seconds of the data. It seem...

I have a song imported into its own track just fine. I want it to play normally for about 30 seconds, with the rest of the song at a much lower volume so a voice over can be added on another track.
