Sand-Box for when I have to make tricksy edits.

Audacity's ability to select a precise part of a sound for editing makes it a very powerful editing tool. The selection is usually made by mouse but visually impaired users can instead fully manipulate the selection using the keyboard, while a very precise selection can be made by using Selection Toolbar.

Audacity's ability to select a precise part of a sound for editing makes it a very powerful editing tool. The selection can be made by mouse or can be manipulated using only the keyboard. Selection Toolbar enables selection of an exact time range accurate to various units of time.

Most Audacity operations involve selecting a time range of audio in one or more tracks, then deleting or moving the selection or applying an effect to it which changes its sound.

You have the flexibility to select entire multiple tracks (or only a time range within those tracks). This makes your change affect the entire (or selected) range in all those selected tracks. Alternatively you could select all or part of an individual track, and then change each track in a different way.
