Title: How to instantly post a large number of audio tracks in Audacity
Post by: Marcov on April 13, 2011, 12:43:35 am

____________________________

The timing is as follows: Minutes-Seconds-Centiseconds.
So in the last one (01:53:07) it's 1 minute, 53.07 seconds.

What I want to avoid is dragging ALL THESE ONE BY ONE to get what I want; all the weapon sound effects for the video. So instead of dragging them one by one is there actually a way to type the timer for each? Or to add all in an instant? Or anything more efficient than dragging all of them one by one?

Thanks.

Again, this program is Audacity, the one that can allow you to mix different sound tracks together.

Easiest way I can think is to open all the audio tracks together so that they all begin at t=0.  Then click the track you want to move, use Edit > Move Cursor > To track start, then hit Generate > Silence and enter the time in seconds that you want that track to begin at.

As far as I can tell there is no way to adjust them all simultaneously, would be nice if you can.
