Apologies James, I meant to comment earlier on your tracks issue. As you
have now discovered, you do not need to create a new track before starting a
recording in Audacity. Not all DAWs work that way. You only need to create
a new track if wanting to copy something into it.

Hello everyone!
Thank you so much for your help! You all have been great, and this list
has become an extremely positive experience for me, and I look forward to
many years more!
As a note... You may recall that my Audacity was recording two tracks
for every one that I actually requested. In other words when I went to the
Tracks menu and pressed either Audio Track or Stereo track, two tracks would
be established. I'm not sure why this happens, although after exploring
Audacity's Preferences as suggested by this list, I am guessing that this is
being done as a result of my interface. Now for the interesting, or curious
aspect. I have discovered that if I establish a new track simply by
pressing R to begin recording without actually establishing a new track, a
new single track is established without its twin. When I get two tracks
from going to the Tracks menu, I have also learned that the first track is
actually blank, while it is the second track that holds what I had recorded.
This is no trouble since I now know what to expect, but it was a bit
confusing for me in the beginning. I hope that my description will help
someone else who may have this same issue on their Audacity in the future.
Respectfully,
James
