right mouse button zooming in has a left
mouse button is pretty obvious then we
have those icons to just move this
around like let's say you want to wait
15 seconds then you can just go ahead
and place your marker I would say like
what's happening guys my name is Alex
and like back to a brand new and askew
tutorial it's Thursdays machining video
and in this video I'm going to learn you
guys how to cut in audacity okay because
you see like a lot of icons right there
at the top and I've also like different
functions so in this video I'm going to
show you guys how to cut in audacity so
first of all before you can cut you need
audio so that's one product that's what
I'm going to do right now so I'm just
going to record myself real quick and
then I'll be showing you guys how to do
it okay so this is a test recording and
just for the sake of this video I'm
gonna try to keep this feed they're
relatively short so let's go okay so
that's her audio so basically the first
thing that you want to do is you see
he's like six icons right here at the
top basically the first thing a what to
do is going to pick the selection tool
this one and basically let's say that
we're going to cut away all the silences
in or in our audio clip so let's see
what sounds like you're like right now
what I just didn't cut anywhere okay so
this is a phase you guys can hear right
there
this entire small line is no audio
whatsoever so what we're going to do is
Ridge is going to pick up our selection
tool and we're going to cut away
everything from start to finish and
select it and press the Delete key now
that we have like just a straight audio
and also at the end you can just start
dragging until I stop speaking right
there boom then would let's see what it
sounds like without it like with all the
audio cut away okay so this is a test
recording and just for the sake of this
video I'm gonna try to keep this video
relatively short so let's go okay so
this is a test recording and just for
the sake of this video I'm gonna try to
keep this video relatively short so
let's go so that's basically how it
sounds so this is how you do it
because we have like six tools right
here like this guy of course also zoom
tool like if you want to cut away a
specific part so you can also click on
this one to zoom in you can also zoom
out by you know pressing the right mouse
button
zooming in is the left mouse button is
pretty obvious then we have
those icons to just move this around
like let's say you want to wait 15
seconds they can just go ahead and place
your marker I would say like right here
maybe I would say like right here right
here at 15 seconds then plates this guy
and then you can just place this guy
right there and then it stars at 15
seconds you have other icons as well but
mainly for cutting you want to use this
guide selection tool and you just want
to go ahead and cut and then you can
just press the Delete key and that's how
you do it so this is that's a pretty 3d
