Recording Audio

Once you have created a project and set your preferences, you are ready to record.

Click on the red Record button to begin recording.

Click on the blue Pause button to pause the recording. Press it again to continue.

Click on the yellow Stop button to finish recording. The cursor will return to its previous position, before the recording was started.

That's it. You may now play around with your recording and explore the editing capabilities of Audacity. Remember that you can use the Undo function almost without limits whilst the project is open.
