User talk:Billw58/Splitting Recordings Basic
Peter 29Jan10: I still think it will look too complex to the average user - Have you seen the version of the same stuff that lives in the Wiki: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Splitting_recordings_into_separate_tracks
This Wiki article has always seemed to me to be a clearer, simpler and less intimidating exposition than the one we have in the manual - it's always the one I point people to from the forum. It is 1.2 based (e.g. see the diagram with the labels) so would need some simple modification for 1.3/2.0.
Remember the recent discussion about the USB TT pages - about not having duplicate entries for similar functions in the manual and the tutorial - this should apply to the splitting tutorial. It does not make any kinf of sense to maintain two parallel versions of the same thing surely.
We should decide which should be the dominant one (at this time) and provide a very cut-down page with a pointer to the full tutorial from the other.
