Separate Audacity clip - Here's how

With the free audio tool Audacity you can easily separate your clip. This helps you if, for example, a live recording has already ended but you have continued to record.

Separate clip in Audacity

1. Open a desired clip in Audacity. And use the "Selection Tool" (top left next to the record button).
2. Click where you want in your clip where you want to separate it.
3. If you now press the key combination [Ctrl] + [I], the clip is separated.
4. Now you can use the "Move Tool" (the double-sided arrow next to the magnifying glass) to move the individual clips and place them in other places or tracks. With the selection tool and a double click on the clip you can mark or remove it.
