Hello!
I click on play with my recorded flash cards, and then let Audacity record all the 100+ cards into one large mp3 file. But is there a way of either getting it to stop recording when the sounds have ended, or trim the silence at the end?
If I leave the PC while it records, there will inevitably be a very long silence at the end ...
Recording flash cards, trimming end of audio file possible?

Was this about using Audacity for an educational purpose? Assuming not, it is best to post in the Forum board for your operating system, so I moved the topic for you.
Try Transport > Sound Activated Recording (on/off).
If you need more help, please tell us your version of Audacity (see the pink panel at the top of the page).

Depends on how one would define educational purposes. I will record the names of all capitals and countries with associations, and then listen to them to learn it one and for all.
I guess the question is mostly support related. I will try Transport. I am using Audacity 2.1.1
