I'm having trouble making this happen.  Here's what I'm doing:

1. I have 4 stereo tracks in my project.  I select track 2 and 4.
2.  I move 2 minutes into the tracks with 8 presses of shift+'.'
3. I press ctrl+shift+'k' to select both tracks.
4. I press ctrl+'c' to copy.
5. Press ctrl+'n' to create new project.
6. Press ctrl+'v' to paste selected tracks into new project.

I've tried a step 5.5 where I add two new tracks into the new project before I paste, but either way, the tracks don't paste.

Can you see where I am going wrong?

Thanks for your help,
David

If you make a selection in one track, then press "shift + ctrl + k",
the selection will be extended to all tracks. After copying, to paste
into existing tracks you must select the same number of tracks and
they must be of the same kind (mono or stereo) as the tracks that you
copied from. Alternatively, if no tracks are selected when you paste,
Audacity will create new tracks of the appropriate type.

Let's say I've got a project with 8 tracks in it... I select 55 seconds of
the 8 tracks I want to copy.

If I do a ctrl+c to copy all 8 tracks, Audacity will copy only the selected
track that focus is on in the track list.

Is there a way to copy the selected time range of all 8 tracks at once to
paste them into a new project?  I've been copying one track at a time but
that gets pretty time consuming.

Best,
David
