Adding to the end of songs

Post by dbirchum » Wed Mar 26, 2008 11:37 am

Hi all -

I am fairly new to Audacity but have been playing around with it for some basic sound editing on my mp3s for a couple of months now, and I enjoy it.

I just want to know if I can do something with Audacity. Some of my mp3's end rather abruptly, and I would like to extend the song by a couple of seconds (with silence). Is there anyone to do this?

Open a file, press the Skip to End button to move the cursor to the end of the file, then select Generate - Silence. Set the duration in seconds and click Ok. Export the file.
