Hi Vitor & David,
Thank you so much. I unchecked the box in preferences as suggested and that
indeed did the trick.

Hi.
Perhaps Audacity is selecting tracks that shouldn’t be selected, so the best
thing to do might be:
First of all, go to Edit, Preferences and Tracks.
Tabbing arround, you will find a checkbox that sais Behaviors Select all audio
in project, if none selected. Uncheck it.
When working in the project:
1: Press control+shift+a to make shure every track and audio in the project is
unselected.
2: Select the track you want to apply the effect to, and then, apply the effect.
That should apply the effect only to the desired track. Hope that works.

Hello:
I'll describe what is happening and hope someone has an idea how I can fix this:
Let's say just for example that I have a project with 10 tracks, although this
occurs whether it's 2 or 20 tracks. I select track 1 so that I can apply an
affect. I choose the affect and hit enter.
Audacity then selects all the tracks, applying the affect to all the tracks.
Well, my work around is to hit undo, unselect all but the target track, and
then repeat the affect with CTRL+R.
This does what I want but all that extra time and effort ...
any thoughts?
