Thanks to this forum, I got Audacity up and running with good headphones. [View all]

My first challenge is to figure out how to record a piece a bit at a time. There’s loads to learn about making clips and moving them around in different ways, etc. If I knew what I wanted to do, I could focus on how to do it.

Can anyone give me advice about how to continue a track while keeping it absolutely at a steady beat? If I could hear it while the system was recording, I could just play along silently and start making sound at the appropriate time. But I can’t figure out how I’d do that. Do I have to record the next part, triggering the record activity when I click the icon and then edit out the delay? Any advice on editing out the delay while getting the end result of the two pieces exactly in time?

To rephrase. How do I record part of my piece, and then stop, and then add on the next part of the piece while ending up with an in-rhythm whole?

Tia
