Hi Jacob, in the jaws guide to audacity, in the more advanced editing section, there's a sub-section on time shifting one or more tracks. As described there, the selection start spin box in the selection bar is very useful for fine tuning when you want the audio in a track to start.

Either way, what it comes down to is, how simple/easy/possible is it to have like two tracks, and then shift the playback starting position of one of them to something like a specific time? Or is it still best to try initiating playback on original track, stop it at right time, and then paste second track in at that position, or something, from another audacity project? I would just have thought it should be simple enough to take one specific track, and just move/shift it's playback starting position to like a specific time, in relation to something like a global track/playback time frame, etc., and this is also partly since would be easier/simpler to be able to do this repeatedly to sort of fine tune something's playback starting time, instead of possibly having to over and over again paste/insert it at different points each time, and then if not completely happy with result, remove it and try again from scratch..?
