It's fairly simple to move - that is, time shift - all of the Tracks in an Audacity project Together. In theory - you just enable the "Synchronize Tracks" feature - and time shift to suit.

But it could be frustrating if you want to shift only a subset of Tracks - vis-à-vis the others in the project - which is a more likely use case anyway.

In this Episode - we'll send that can't-move-the-right-Tracks-Together frustration to /dev/null.

How can you quickly confirm whether an audio file is stereo or mono - or its sample rate - its bit depth - its encoding type - and other information you may need to know about that file?

In this Episode - we'll explore several terminal command line tools - that can deliver the information you need - as quickly as it takes to type the command and the audio filename.

It's great to have a way to label parts and points in your audio.

In Audacity - labels are contained in separate Tracks - that can still be associated with points in the audio.

In this Episode - we'll explore why separate Tracks are helpful - and a few ways you can use labels - to make things a lot easier for you in your audio project.

Having an audio file not load or play because its filename won't load is annoying. If your file manager won't list it correctly - that could be disastrous.

In this Episode - we'll go over how to create filenames that will work - no matter what programs you use them in - or where you send them.

In many cases - you can readily fix a glitch in a Recording - as we've discussed in some previous episodes.

But sometimes it makes sense to cull it out - and just start over.

In this Episode - we'll explore things to consider in deciding which to do.

What do you do when you need to join together two snippets of audio - and one or both of them start or end with rough edges?

In this Episode, we'll examine how the Fade-IN and Fade-OUT features of Audacity can help in this.

Should you save your files in MP3, WAV, or something else?

Well, the answer depends on several factors - and in this Episode, we'll examine the pros and cons of the most popular formats.

When you're done with a project - you'll want to hold onto your work - at least temporarily until you're sure you won't need to return to it for any re-work.

In this Episode - we'll examine some ways to archive your work - so that you can easily find it when you need to.

As used here - the terms "Headtone" and "Tailtone" - refer to bits of *silence* before and after an audio clip. How long do you make them? How much is Needed - and more importantly - why.

In this Episode - we'll look into the pros and cons of longer and shorter bits of silence - at the beginning and end of each audio clip.

Whether To-Delete-or-Silence unwanted audio

Well - It Depends.

In this Episode - we'll look at the difference between deleting audio containing unwanted sound artifacts - and converting it into Silence.

And when to do which.
