Hi Pete,
After you pasted your selected audio, did you make sure that either
1. you deselected the first track by up or down arrowing to that track and
press enter, at which point your screen reader should announce simply
"track 1"; or,
2. when in your second track you pressed 's' (for solo), which should make
only that track play when you press the space bar; or,
3. when you were on track 1 you pressed 'm' (for mute)?
After any of these 3 steps only your track 2 should be selected (message
"track 2 selected" by your screen reader).
I suggested using any of the three above steps because you were probably
hearing both tracks played at the same time when you pressed the space
bar.
Does this help?
David

Hi everyone,
I'm a pretty new Audacity user, and I'm guessing this is a simple thing to
do, but after spending a couple of hours over several different days working
through the Audacity For JAWS Users guide and thinking I understand how to
do the following, I'm reaching out for help because I'm not accomplishing
what I want to do:
Using the Audacity 1.3.3 Beta, I've loaded in an MP3 track that I created
from a stereo cassette and I want to divide it into several smaller tracks.
I can get as far as doing the selection, and can verify reading the edit
spin boxes in the track selection toolbar that I have the particular piece I
want selected, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to take that
piece and create a separate track with just that piece. I tried opening a
new stereo track, but when I try pasting into this new track it doesn't seem
to get there because when I try to play the new track it sounds like I have
what's on the original one. Can someone either help or at least point me in
the right direction?
Thanks so much in advance for any help,
Pete De Vasto
