Hi,
The automatic latency correction, which trys to get tracks in sinc, has
recently been improved, so if you're using a version before 1.3.6, it's worth
you updating to the current version 1.3.6. In fact version 1.3.7 will probably
be released within the next couple of weeks, so you might want to wait. Note
also that version 1.3.5 had some bugs in the keyboard navigation, so it's
definitly worth upgrading from that.
If the automatic latency correction is still not good enough, you can can time
shift tracks. In the Jaws guide for audacity which has been mentioned in other
posts, in the More advanced editing section, there's a sub-section on time
shifting tracks.
If you've needed to manually time shift tracks, then once you know the time
shift needed, you can set this in the preferences so that it then happens
automatically. If you select the Audio I/O category in the Preferences dialog
(ctrl+p), then there's a Latency correction edit box, and the units are
milliseconds.

orginal message:
Hello All,
I'm a new subscriber of this list. I'm using windows xp and jaws versions 9 and
10. I have a question for all the people who use audacity which is supposed to
be an accessible recording software. I'm trying to record multiple tracks, and
when I add a track, or just press R, it seems to be recording them in sink.
However, when I press space to play them back, or r to record another track,
they have about a second delay between each track which consequently places
them out of sink. Is there a way I can fix the settings in audacity to
automatically keep the tracks I record in sink because I can't figure it out.
Some help would be greatly appreciated.
Also, if you know of any other accessible multi-track recorders which I can
use, please let me know. I'm using goldwave to edit and record sounds, but it
is not a multi-track recorder.
Thanks again.
Tanja M.
