Where do the saved projects go?

what is the best way to save projects ? If i have finished project i can export it and retrieve it later but if im working on something and want to back it up, what is the best way to do that ? If i’ save project as " where is it saved ? Also if recording multiple tracks , how can i separate and save one of the tracks by itself ? Thanks for considering these questions.

Projects get saved where you tell Audacity to save them in the Save Project dialog:

You can change that export location to be anywhere you want.


A simple way would be to select just that track and use Current selection as the Export Range and export it as a WAV file.

If you want to save it as an Audacity project

  1. Select the track (or tracks)
  2. Copy it (Ctrl+C)
  3. create a new project
  4. paste the track(s) into the new project
  5. Save the project
