How to copy effects from one file to another?

Post by RPG Crunch » Thu Dec 21, 2017 6:09 pm

Hi,

I'm a new user of Audacity. I'm making a series of sound clips for use in a tabletop roleplaying game as "sound effects".
I already made a track with the "perfect" effects applied to the track and I want to copy those same effects and settings to other tracks as well.

Is this possible? And if so, how do I do it?

Tnx for the help.

If you can remember what effects you used, you could make a "Chain", and then apply that Chain to other tracks / files.
