Having arrowed to the track you want to move up or down, press shift-m.
Then use up or down arrow to go through a lot of very useful options
until you find move track up or down.
Having said that shift-m is the command, I am almost certain that works
on the Mac. It is some time since I used Audacity on the Mac and it
took me some time to crack the code. I just tried it in Windows and it
works, so I am pretty confident my memory hasn't let me down on this
occasion. In Windows the Application key does the trick, but the Mac
doesn't have one of those.

HI.

Hi Maria.
Either in windows or mac, Audacity is a multitrack sound editor and
recorder.
To mix your voice with the music, it depends on what you want to do.
If you want to sing upon an instrumental peace, then you just need to
import your music into Audacity, have your microphone ready, press
record and then perform while listening back to your music.
By default Audacity is set to make it possible with no adicional
configurations.
However, if you intend to duck the music for your voice to appear upon a
peace of music, you can use the Autoduck feature. I don't know about
mac, but in windows, you do the following:
1: Have the music and voice in 2 separate tracks in Audacity.
2: On your track list, select and move your voice track down, in case it
appears further up.
Now, the voice track will serve as a control track.
3: Unselect the voice track and select the music track.
4: In the music track, select the portion of audio where the voice will
be mixed.
5: In the effects menu, choose Autoduck and press enter.
In case you want to adjust any of the parameters of the autoduck
feature, tab through the window and type or use your up and down arrows
to adjust your values.
Hope this helps.
