Date of tracks/recordings

Post by Jugalug » Sat May 08, 2010 7:43 pm

Hi,

I recently recorded several events using Audacity and (foolishly) didn't bother saving each project before I recorded a new one. I now have several projects, each with a different event in. I need to know the date of each project/recording. Can I do this?

Thanks for any help,
Joe

Audaciity doesn't do this - but a workaround would be to change the track-name so that it contains the date/time of recording.

Click on the little black downward pointing triangle in the track v=control box at the lefy of the track to change the trackname.
