Hi Andrew,
Thank you so much for leading me to your tutorial. I will surely try 
it out with my audacity project.
So I have 2 tracks in my audacity window right now, one is the karaoke 
track which the screen reader announces with its name and the other is 
the one with my vocals which the screen reader announces as track 2.
So I select track 2 by pressing enter on it and then go to the effects 
menu and choose the amplify option as I want my vocals to be louder.
But when I press enter on it, the screen reader announces the name of 
my karaoke track instead of saying track 2, which is what I need to work with.
Please advise.

Hi Manoj

You may be a candidate for my audio intro to Audacity tutorial.  You 
can download it from https://www.sendspace.com/pro/dl/v56cn4.  It ;
runs for about
16 minutes.  I start with some basic editing, which you may well find 
useful.  The section on adjusting level starts at 13 minutes 56 seconds.

The tutorial deals with a single track.  Because you have two tracks, 
one with the music and one with your vocals, it is important that the 
music track is not selected and the vocal track is selected.  Use up 
and down arrows to move between the tracks.  Pressing Enter will 
toggle the selected and unselected state of the track.


Andrew

Hi Ted, Andrew and others,
The recording finally worked perfectly. Thank you so much for all 
your valuable suggestions. Now my next question is how can I increase 
the volume of my vocals alone?

Hi Manoj

You are over-thinking the process.  As Ted said, pressing spacebar 
will stop.  That is, it will stop both the karaoke track and the 
track onto which you are recording.  Do it like this:
1. Go to the point in the karaoke track a little before you want to 
start singing.
2.  Press shift-r.  That will start recording on a new track while 
playing the karaoke track.
3.  At the relevant time, start singing.
4. When you have finished singing, press spacebar to stop recording.
You can then adjust levels and whatever else you want to do to the 
recording of your voice.

Hi Ted,
For some reason, when I press space, my recording also stops and 
when I press space again that is when the karaoke track begins playing.

Hi,
Thanks for your suggestion. I followed all the steps that you 
suggested.
So there is a bit of music at the beginning and then I have to 
start singing. So I press Shift plus R to start a new recording, 
but when I press space to play the karaoke track, the recording stops.
Could you tell me what am I doing wrong?

Open the karaoke track in audacity.  Make sure you have earphones 
on and set your preferred microphone.  Go to the transport menu by 
pressing Alt+N, go into the transport submenu and make sure 
overdub is on.  The final step is to record a new track by 
pressing shift+R and save the file.  Hope it helps!
