Hello
When I record voice into Audacity and am forced to pause and restart in the middle of the track to delete a mistake, etc. how do I get it to where when I start recording again, it gets appended to that same track instead of opening up another track beginning where the last one ended. I know that they all get mixed together when saving, but I don't like having 20 different tracks open, as it gets confusing.
Thanks for all help.

Re: Voice recording; pausing and restarting on the same trac
In 1.2 you can't do this.
In 1.3 (and the upcoming 1.4) you can by hitting Shift+Record or Shift+R - I find this very useful in 1.3 when flipping over an LP to record the second side.
The Beta is actually pretty stable now - so you might want to consider moving to 1.3

How about just marking the position of the mistake with Ctrl+M then carrying on and when you have finished, go back and correct all the mistakes.

That's what I needed to know. I may just take your advice and make the 1.3 transistion.

That's helpful advice too. I didn't know I could do that. Thanks Stevestevethefiddle wrote:How about just marking the position of the mistake with Ctrl+M then carrying on and when you have finished, go back and correct all the mistakes.
