Hi Sameer
For completeness, facilities for marking positions are in the Track
Menu. The one you want is to mark at playback position. The default
shortcut is control-m. When you press control-m the screen reader will
tell you that you are on track x (track 2 if the recording is taking
place on the only track so far). At this point you can give the label a
name and press Enter or simply press Enter. I favour giving it a name.
If using Audacity version 2.1.3 or later, once you have finished your
recording you can use alt-left arrow or alt-right arrow to jump from
label to label. Alternatively, from the Track Menu you can go to Edit
Labels and have all sorts of fun adjusting positions etc.

Hi all
How do you mark a point while recording to be able to quickly return to that specific point when playing back? For example - Whilst recording, I realise that I would have to return to a specific point in the audio to cut something out (so it would be useful to be able to mark that point while recording with a keystroke and to go back to it when editing).
Any help will greatly be appreciated.
