It was requested that I stopped advertising services for Compensation on this
list and I did exactly that, stop. I do, however, advertise on buy, sell, trade
lists, yes. I live in a nursing home and money is always extremely tight. The
audio editing that I do buy in large is a hobby and I do things for free, but
getting a little bit of spending money is nice too, every once in a while.

Curious if you know how long the introduction is going to be? Did you create
the introduction in another Audacity project? If so, you can select all
tracks in the project you want to add the introduction to, move to the
beginning of the selected tracks, and then add silence for that known length.
Add a new track to the project, select only that track, and paste your
introduction audio into that new track.
It’s not difficult to do but it does take practice. I’m happy to outline the
keyboard only steps here on the list if you are interested.
One thing that took me a while to realize with Audacity is that, if I get a
specific audio clip how I like it, then I need to save it. Having multiple
Audacity projects open at once is not uncommon for me. Although it should be
noted that 2.4.x versions of Audacity prior to 2.4.2 will not work as
expected with the Audacity scriptset. There was a bug in Audacity that was
fixed as of 2.4.2 and the most recent version of the JAWS scriptset for
Audacity.
If you prefer someone walk you through the steps then someone like Ted could
help. Note, however, that I don’t think all of his help is given without some
sort of expected monetary reward.
Personally I’ve seen Ted asking for payment on other lists – not saying he’s
doing it now, but it might be worth exercising a little caution if you aren’t
prepared to supplement his help with a monetary reward.
I think offering personalized help for technical information is great and
should be rewarded monetarily. I do think, however, that offering
personalized technical help for an open source project like Audacity should
probably remain free. That’s the beauty of a listserv like this one and of
open source projects in general.
Peace,
David

Subject: [audacity4blind] Inserting new section into a track
Hi All,
Yes it’s me again!!
Thank you so much to those of you who responded to my earlier post about
editing a track and adding audio from one track to another – I think I’m
getting there slowly but surely and at least have been able to edit two
tracks.
I would now like to be able to insert some audio into the beginning of each
track i.e. an intro to what will be the main podcast audio – what’s the best
way of doing this?
I have tried just recording at the start of a track but when I play it back
the newly recorded segement doesn’t appear to be there. Do I need to record
the intro section as a new track and then cut and paste it into the main
track ?
As ever any help greatuflly received.
With thanks in advance
Sarah
