HELLO THERE,
I HOPE IVE COME ONTO THE RELEVENT SECTION OF THE FORUM. I WAS HOPING SOMEONE MAY BE ABLE TO HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM...... :wink: I HAVE BEEN RECORDING TRACKS AND SUCCESSFULLY EDITING THEM WITH MY AUDACITY PROGRAM,[IT CAME SUPPLIED IN CD FORM WITH MY USB PLUG-IN RECORD DECK].... I HAVE BECOME QUITE CONFIDENT AT EDITING PORTIONS OF MUSIC FROM TRACKS, [SOME TRACKS ARE TOO LONG AND SOUND BETTER IN A SHORTENED VERSION FOR EXAMPLE], BUT WOULD NOW LIKE TO BE ABLE TO LENGTHEN SOME TRACKS. I.E. TAKING A PORTION OF A BACKING TRACK AND LOOPING IT OVER SEVERAL TIMES TO CREATE A "LONGER MIX" AND THEN SEGUE IT ONTO THE EXISTING PIECE OF MUSIC ....... IM ASSUMING THIS IS POSSIBLE BUT I JUST CANT SEEM TO WORK OUT HOW TO DO IT… :blush:
ANY HELP WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED…
THANKS IN ADVANCE,
STICKEMUPNOW

Select the part that you want to repeat and use Copy and Paste from the Edit Menu.
You may also want to try “Effects->Repeat”
