Hi there and thanks for the useful tool!
In Audacity 1.26 when i wand to duplicate piece of sound i just paste anywhere in channel, and the new track joined automatic to end of previous track.. now if i paste sound, that stay in place i paste it!
Is that very difficult to me because i have to do that every time (copy + paste) about 40, 50 times and adjust manual the position start/end..
Look at screenshot what i mean.
Is there any way to do that in new 2.+ version, or i have to go back to 1.26 ..?
Thanks, Demetris.

The 2.0.behaviour is better for people who want to paste exactly where they put the cursor after the end of the audio. This then gives them a separate
clip with a space between the previous end of the audio and the paste.
For what you want to do you can place the cursor anywhere after the end of the track, press K on your keyboard, then paste. K places the cursor at the current end of the track.
But why not paste that audio once then use Effect > Repeat (

And BTW note that your audio is clipping, you have an oversaturated (over-loud) signhal that is banging against the top and bottom of the waveform window at 1/-1 - you really need to choke it back a bit or it will sound horrible.
