that track was at a non-default rate
then you may need to use Set Rate
from the Track Pop-Down menu to set
the correct sample rate.
New Stereo Track – same as above,
but creates a stereo track. You can
also create a stereo track by joining
two tracks using the track pop-down
menu.
New Label Track – This creates a
new Label Track, which can be very
useful for textual annotation.
New Time Track – This creates a new
Time Track, which is used to vary the
speed of playback over time.
Remove Tracks – This command
removes the selected track or tracks
from the project. Even if only part of a
track is selected, the entire track is
removed. You can also delete a track
by clicking the X in its upper-left corner.
To cut out only part of the audio in a
track, use Delete or Silence.
Align Tracks… - All the Align funtions
work on whole tracks or groups of
tracks, not on selections, even if they
span across multiple tracks. They all
operate by time-shifting tracks (moving
them left or right ), making it easier to
synchronize tracks or get rid of silence
at the beginning. The cursor or
selection stays in the same place
unless you use “Align and move
cursor…” below.
Align and move cursor… - same as
the functions above, except that the
cursor or selection is moved along
with the tracks. That allows you to shift
the tracks without losing your relative
place.
Add Label at Selection – This menu
item lets you create a new label at the
current selection. You can titile the
label by typing with the keyboard and
then hitting “Enter” when you’re done.
Add Label at Playback Position – This
menu item lets you create a new label
at the current location where you are
playing or recording. Do this if you
want to mark a certain passage while
you’re listening to it. You can title the
label by typing with the keyboard and
then hitting “Enter” or “Return” when
you’re done. Only available whilst
audacity is playing.
Generate Menu
If you choose an item from the
Generate menu when there are no
tracks in a project, a new track is
created. Otherwise, the current track is
used.
If a track is selected and the cursor is
placed in a single place in the track
audio is inserted at the cursor position.
The default duration is 30 seconds.
The audio created with replace the
any selection, otherwise it is inserted
into the track, shifting up later parts of
the track.
