Cannot Generate Sounds
I have the song in Audacity, play it, highlight the part I want to edit and...it won't let me add any effects or generate any sounds to bleep out the bad word
. I tried splitting the tracks, converting it to mono, anything I could find on YouTube, but nothing worked. Can you help me?

Re: Cannot Generate Sounds
Where did the music come from? Audacity will not know how to edit YouTube videos or their audio tracks.

Re: Cannot Generate Sounds
Just select the selection with the "bad" word and then either remove it with CTRL+K to delete the section or use CTRL-L to retain the section and silence it.

Re: Cannot Generate Sounds
Or select the part of the track with the word and generate a tone over it.
Or select the part of the track with the word and paste another sound of equal length over the top of it.
