If I am recording and stop the process to edit the track, is there a way to have it so when I start recording again, it will be appended to the first recording?
Currently, I have used copy and paste to add the second recording to the first.
Thank you....
Todd

Re: Adding to a track
No, but if you Pause instead of Stop, you can unpause and it will keep recording on the same track. Try it a couple of times on a short, unimportant show.
There is one minor down side. People forget they paused the recording and can't figure out why the tools don't work.

THANKS! I'll give it a try...
An aside question: I assume that the "input" into Audacity from my Sound Max card is analog. In other words, the digital was converted into analog from the streaming digital.
Thanks again...
