3 x Experimental layouts for the "Using Audacity" landing pages
Tabulated Version
This page provides a guide to the main functionality of Audacity.
| Chapter | Description |
|---|---|
| Audacity Setup and Configuration | How to set up Audacity and customize it to work the way that you require. |
| Playing and Recording | Tools which allow you to play all or part of a sound;there are also many recording options. |
| Selecting Audio | Audacity's ability to select precise parts of a sound for editing makes it a very powerful editing tool. |
| Clips - separate audio regions within a track | Audacity can split a track so as to create multiple clips within that track. |
| Splitting and Joining Stereo Tracks | Manipulating tracks, with some worked examples. |
| Sync-Lock Tracks | Enables you to keep audio in sync when working on one track among related tracks. |
| Mixing Audio Tracks | Mixing refers to the process of combining multiple Audacity tracks which play simultaneously into a single track. |
| Zooming | Zooming the time scale, or zooming "horizontally", is something you'll do all the time. |
| Undo, Redo and History | Audacity is forgiving, it is designed to let you try something and then undo it if you don't like it. |
| Finding the correct effect, generator or analyzer | A quick index to Audacity's Effects, Generators and Analysis tools. |
Denser Version
Peter 16May12: Trying a more dense layout to try and avoid Gale's "rush of confusion".
I'm coming round to thinking that maybe it needs a two-column table (but I don't know how to do that).
