[@GaryTerzza]

I am pleased the tips are useful. Good luck with your voice acting 🎭

[@Mellie]

Ditto!

[@kienchenk4223]

Thanks for the tutorial! What I haven't graspedyet is, why one goes through this lengthy progress if "cut and paste" would do the exapt same thing?

[@GaryTerzza]

If you were just to cut & paste without splitting the regions, you would overwrite the section you want to keep.

[@beyondborderfilms4352]

Thank you so much I didn't know how to split it until now thank you.😊

[@GaryTerzza]

Thanks for posting the comment and I hope it helps you speed up your editing.

[@46foryounger]

This is what I have been looking for but what about when you are editing music and you need the beat to be exactly where it left off?

[@GaryTerzza]

Ah that is more of a musical timing question for which, sadly, I’m not qualified to answer.

[@leonardshatner4717]

I'm getting an annoying click/pop sound when I join 2 split clips on a track. The black line that divides/joins them is where I keep hearing it. I don't recall it doing that before. How to get rid of that?

[@GaryTerzza]

This could be due to any number of issues. Perhaps there just too sharp an edit where you are cutting into a breath or word.

[@meekareth5092]

Here is the situation, i have a voice talking and a background music, and i want to split voice and background music into 2 separate labels to change them seperately, any tips ?

Thank you perfect video!

Kind of you to say so - many thanks 🙏

[@esmin2400]

Hiya I’ve just started using Audacity and I’ve imported a song from KZbin that I’d like to clip at the drop so that I can slow the later section of the song but not the first part. It won’t let me clip it for some reason

[@GaryTerzza]

Go to edit -> Clip Boundaries -> Split. Make sure you select the time shift tool to pull these regions apart.

Hard to believe in our days there is such a garbage software....

[@GaryTerzza]

The latest iteration of Audacity is powerful and easy to use. It’s also free, which has to be a bonus.
