Toolbars Selection tool - for selecting the range of audio you want to edit or listen to. Envelope tool - for changing the volume over time. Draw tool - for modifying individual samples. Zoom tool - for zooming in and out. Time shift tool - for sliding tracks left or right. Multi tool - lets you access all of these tools at once depending on the location of the mouse and the keys you are holding down. Audio Control Buttons Skip to Start - moves the cursor to time 0.
Skip to End - moves the cursor to the end of the last track. Edit Toolbar All of the buttons on this toolbar perform actions - and with a couple of exceptions, they're all just shortcuts of existing menu items to save you time. Holding the mouse over a tool will show a "tooltip" in case you forget which one is which. Cut Copy Paste Trim away the audio outside the selection Silence the selected audio Undo Redo (repeat last command).
Track Pop-Down Menu The Track Pop-Down Menu appears when you click in a track's title. This lets you access a few special commands that apply to individual tracks. Name... - lets you change the name of the track. Move Track Up - exchange places with the track above this one. Move Track Down - exchange places with the track below this one. Waveform - sets the display to Waveform - this is the default way of visualizing audio.
Split Stereo Track - if the selected track is a stereo track (a pair of left and right tracks joined together as a single track), this operation splits them into two separate tracks that you can modify and edit independently. Set Sample Format - this determines the quality of the audio data and the amount of space it takes up. 16-bit is the quality used by audio CD's and is the minimum quality that Audacity uses internally (8-bit audio files are automatically converted when you open them).
Export As WAV... - exports all of the audio in your project as a WAV file, an industry-standard format for uncompressed audio. You can change the standard file format used for exporting from Audacity by opening the File Format Preferences . Note that exporting will automatically mix and resample if you have more than one track, or varying sample rates. See also File Formats. Export Selection As WAV... - same as above, but only exports the current selection. Export as MP3...
Print - Print out the main window view from audacity showing the tracks and waveforms. Exit (Quit) - closes all windows and exits Audacity, prompting you to save any unsaved changes first. Edit Menu Undo - This will undo the last editing operation you performed to your project. Audacity supports full unlimited undo - meaning you can undo every editing operation back to when you opened the window. Redo - This will redo any editing operations that were just undone.
Duplicate - Makes a copy of all or a part of a track or set of tracks into new tracks. See the figure below: Select ... > All - Selects all of the audio in all of the tracks in the project. Select ... > Start to Cursor - Selects from the beginning of the selected tracks to the cursor position. Select ... > Cursor to End - Selects from the cursor position to the end of the selected tracks.
seconds, exactly. You can change the units that are snapped to using the "Set Selection Format" option in the View Menu . Snap-To ... > Snap Off - Turns Snap-To mode off letting you select arbitrary ranges of time Preferences... - Opens the preferences dialog. View Menu Zoom In - Zooms in on the horizontal axis of the audio, displaying more detail about less time. You can also use the zoom tool to zoom in on a particular part of the window.
menu item changes to Dock Control Toolbar, which you can use to put the toolbar back into the main window. Float Edit Toolbar - moves the Edit Toolbar out of the window and into its own floating window, so you can position it wherever you want. The menu item changes to Dock Edit Toolbar, which you can use to put the toolbar back into the main window. Float Meter Toolbar - does the same thing for audacity's VU meters which you use to set recording levels and adjust playback.
Quick Mix - This command mixes all of the selected tracks together. If you are mixing stereo tracks, or mixing tracks that are marked as Left or Right channel, the result will be a stereo track (two channels), otherwise the result will be mono. Your tracks are implicitly mixed whenever you hit the Play button and whenever you export. This command offers a way to do it permanently and save the results to disk, saving on playback resources.
Add Label at Selection - This menu item lets you create a new label at the current selection. You can title 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.
Repeat Last Effect - Selecting this command is a shortcut to applying the most recent effect with the same settings. This is a convenient way to quickly apply the same effect to many different parts of a file. Amplify - Changes the volume of the selected audio. If you click the "Allow clipping" checkbox, it will let you amplify so much that the audio ends up beyond the range of the waveform, and is clipped (distorted).
FFT Filter - Similar to Equalization, lets you enhance or reduce arbitrary frequencies. The curve here uses a linear scale for frequency. Invert - Flips the waveform vertically, the same as a phase inversion in the analogue domain. Noise Removal - This effect lets you clean up noise from a recording. First, select a small piece of audio that is silent except for the noise, select "Noise Removal", and click on the "Get Noise Profile" button.
Plugins 1 to 15 ... etc. These submenus contain any VST, Ladspa, or Nyquist plug-ins loaded by audacity. It is possible for a poorly written plugin to crash Audacity, so always save your work before using a plug-in effect. Analyze Menu Plot Spectrum - To use this feature, first select a region of audio from a single track, then select "Plot Spectrum". It opens up a window that displays the Power Spectrum of the audio over that region, calculated using the Fast Fourier Transform.
