Is there a shortcut for hearing an audio preview of a proposed edit or before cutting or deleting the unwanted audio?
I am working with simple two-track oral history recordings.
Using Audacity 2.3.3 and Mac High Sierra.

"C" (Play Cut Preview)
Plays audio excluding the selection. The amount of audio that is played before and after the section is set by the Cut Preview setting in Playback Preferences.
