I am a brand new audacity user, and the first thing I would like to do is add a little time at the end of my existing sound files. When they were mastered, they just did'nt allow enough time between songs. Sounds simple to do, but I just can't figure it out from the help files. Any help from users here?

ONe way is to copy a chunk of the file, paste it at the end and then select the whole addition and choose "Generate"==>"Silence".

May not be the best or most elegant way but it will work!

actually..just position the 'cursor' line at the end of the file, and choose 'edit' 'insert silence'..and choose # of seconds..

yer quite welcome *smile*..sometimes it takes awhile to get the 'feel' of how programs & menus work...

I tend to read EVERYTHING in the menus, whether I understand it or not, and eventually one day a light dawns..."oh...so that's what it means"
