*Very Important!* Hello. I am a musician and I have used audacity for over a year now. When I record music, every instrument has its own track but when I mess up, it is part of the song. Is there a way to fix a section without rerecording a whole new track, OR is there a way to pause a track and continue recording off of the same track. Please help.

Are you in any way related to Steve Jobs? He sounds just like you. And I didn't say you sound like him because you are just as great a man with the best tutorials.

I just want to say I love your tutorials.

Straight forward and clear. Just as a tutorial should be.

Your one of the few people that do not feel the need to put crap/irritating music to accompany your tutorials.
