If you have empty space at the start of the shorter tracks because you aligned them to the end of the longer tracks, that empty space is not exported, meaning those shorter tracks will remain shorter. If you want those shorter tracks to be exported as the same length as the longer tracks, you must t...

I would like to see a "Project Manager" where you can copy or move a project, make incremental backups, delete old projects, zip up projects and so on.

We need to decide the ultimate project format first.

Line-In if provided is almost always a separate (blue) input alongside the mic input (pink).

Audacity creates entries for a...

I created a new folder and put both the data labelled E00 and the .aup in there but separate. Koz explained why that was incorrect. To save this problem in future, never do copying and moving by hand. Simply open the project, File > Save Project As... and save as a new name, or the same name in ano...

In that case you will have to play the file in the player that is registered to play it and record the playback into Audacity . Note also that 24-bit WMA Lossless files cannot be importe...
