Hi Mike,
concerning splicing files together so that they play one after the other,
here's an alternative to the method suggested by Gale. If you export to mp3,
then the tracks are automatically mixed so that you get a single track.
If you import some tracks into an audacity project, they all start at time
zero. If you want the audio in one track to start when the audio in the
previous track ends, one way of doing this is to move the audio using align
tracks sub menu, which is on the tracks menu.
It would go something like this:
1. import the files into the project in the order you want them to play.
2. press ctrl+shift+a to deselect everything.
3. select track one (enter toggles whether a track is selected).
4. press k to move the cursor to the end of the audio in the selected track.
5. deselect the track.
then repeat the follow steps for the remaining tracks
1. move to the next track and press enter to select it.
2. on the tracks menu, open the align tracks sub menu, and choose align with
cursor. The audio in the track is time-shifted so that it starts at the cursor,
which you'd previously moved to the end of the audio in the previous track.
3. press k to move the cursor to the end of the audio in the selected track.
4. press enter to deselect the track.
David.

Subject: [audacity4blind] questions about using audacity
Hello fellow Audacity users:
I've been playing around with Audacity this week, just to get a feel
for how it works and I have a few questions:
1. Once you've recorded separate multiple files in Audacity, how do you
splice them together, so that they'll play one after the other in
numeric order as one long file?
2. Is it possible to edit mp3 files?
3. When you start a recording in Windows Sound Recorder, it will
automatically stop recording after about a minute's worth of time has
past. However, when making a recording in Audacity, how much recording
time do you get?
4. Is it technically possible, to set Audacity, so that it will record
in mp3 format?
I'm currently using Audacity version 2.0.3. Thanks.
Mike
Rochester, NY.
