Summary


We spent a lot of time in this chapter discussing importing—or bringing in additional audio tracks—into Audacity. We focused on music tracks so that we could go through the detailed steps for adding introduction and closing music, adding background music, and bringing in music tracks from other software libraries. We even discussed at a high level how to bring music from one physical format (like cassette tapes) into digital formats in Audacity. Up next, we're going to learn more about all the advanced effects that we can use.
