Creating movie clips of sound files

Audacity Help Forum macOS

Is it possible to create a short movie clip of an Audacity sound file and if so how do I do this? I need to do this simply to provide a representative example (e.g. to show as part of a powerpoint presentation) of what the sound waves look like. Thanks. Jon

Audacity cannot create a movie file. It can create screenshots:

If you want a movie you can create one with QuickTime thus:

but this will probably create a MOV file which you may need to convert to ASF, AVI or WMV for Powerpoint.
