Hi Afik,
you could arrange the tracks: music, intro, music, intro etc, and then align
end to end. But that probably isn't how you want it to sound.
If you want some overlap of you intro and the music, then you'll have to align
the tracks manually, rather than use align end to end.
To do this, select the track or tracks you want to move, position the cursor
where you want the audio in the tracks to start, then open the tracks menu,
open the align tracks sub menu, and choose start to cursor/selection start.
For example, if you have two music tracks and an introduction before the
second, arrange the tracks:
1. first music track.
2. second music track which you can align so that it starts a little time after
the first track has ended.
3. An intro to the second track. You can align this to start either at the end
of the first track, or before the first track has ended.
Then if you select the audio in the first two tracks, and leave the third intro
track unselected, you can apply autoduck is you want to.

Hi David
Thanks for your respond.
For my show, I'm importing the tracks, selecting them and then aligning them
end to end. Between two or three songs, I have to talk.
But not always the intro of the song is short enough to talking, and in some
cases there are songs with no intro.
What I have to do in this setuation?

Hi,
here are some notes on using Autoduck:
The Auto Duck effect reduces the volume in the selected audio during the
periods in which the level of another track, known as the control track,
exceeds a certain threshold. The track which is used as the control track is
the last unselected track which is immediately below a selected track.
So, for example, if you've got one music track, and one voice track in the
project, and you want to reduce the volume of the music when there's speech in
the voice track:
1. Make sure that the music track is the first track. If it isn't, you can move
a track up or down the track table by opening its menu, and choosing Move Track
Up or Move Track Down respectively.
2. Make sure that the voice track is not selected.
3. Select all the audio in the music track. To do this, first make sure that
the track is selected. Then select a time range that includes all the audio in
the track: press J to move the cursor to the start of the audio in the selected
track, and then press Shift + K to select from the cursor to the end of the
audio in the selected track.
4. On the Effects menu, open the the Auto Duck dialog, and if you've happy with
the default settings, then just press Enter to press the default OK button.
Auto Duck settings
Duck amount. This is the amount of volume reduction of the selected audio
during the periods when the level in the control tracks exceeds the threshold.
Its given in decibels, and its default value is -12dB.
Maximum pause. If the time between two periods when the level in the control
track exceeds the threshold is less than the Maximim pause parameter, then the
selected audio continues to be ducked in this time – there isn't a fade up and
then a fade down. If for example the control track contains speech, then if
there are pauses less than the maximume pause, then the selected audio
continues to be ducked during this period. The default value of Maximum pause
is 1 second. Note that regardless of this setting the Maximum pause is always
at least the sum of the outer fade lengths, which are described below.
Fade lengths. The time over which the volume in the selected audio is faded
down to the reduced volume is made up of two parts. The volume of the selected
audio can start to fade down before the level in the control track starts
exceeding the threshold. This time interval is known as the outer fade down
length, because it occurs outside of the time when the threshold is exceeded,
and its default value is 0.5 seconds. In addition, the volume can finish fading
down after the threshold starts to be exceeded. This interval is known as the
inner fade down length, because it occurs inside the time when the threshold is
exceeded, and its default value is 0 seconds.
In an entirely similar manner, the time over which the volume in the selected
audio is faded back up is also made up of two parts: the inner and the outer
fade up lengths, which have default values of 0 and 0.5 seconds respectively.
Threshold. The selected audio is ducked during the periods when the level in
the control track exceeds this threshold. It's given in decibels, and its
default value is -30dB.

Hi,
As I said before, I'm broadcaster at The Global Voice –Internet Radio, and I
recording my programs with Audacity. But, if the song have a very short
introduction, what should I have to do? I've try –auto duck, but I get error.
The question number two is why the Wassapi interface doesn't work?
