Making Non-Destructive Edits in Audacity

- In this video, I show you my workaround for doing non-destructive editing and post-production work in Audacity. One of the complaints about Audacity, especially from non-Audacity users, is that editing in Audacity is destructive. That means that once you do post-production edits and close your project, you can never remove or modify the effects you put on your project prior to closing it. When you re-open it, there's no reverting back or removing effects previously applied. Until now.
Version 3 of Audacity gave us Project Backups. One way Project Backups can be employed is to use it for non-destructive post-production and editing. It's simple and it works. Press play and let me show you how. Links mentioned in this video:

Genius! Simple, elegant and intuitive.
Up until now I have been using FCPX for my audio only edits, so getting to know audacity, thanks.
What I have found to combat this is "exporting" each of my files under a slightly different file name!! This way I still have the original file, and the first, second and even third edits all have their own unique name!! Of course I make notes in the file INFO that tells me what I already did to each file too!!
In older versions of Audacity, the workaround method I use is to duplicate the track I've applied an effect to and type in the effect name in the track name window. Then mute the previous track and use the duplicated track as the new working track and repeat the process each time a new effect or edit is applied. The track name window allows for a lot of info to be typed in, so parameter settings of a selected effect can also be typed in.
Très intéressant !
Merci 😎
Very interesting !
Thank you 😎
Wonderful information thanks for this.
Hi Mike!
Thanks for all your great videos. I enjoy and learn a lot from them. I have some questions:
1. How do we use the EQ? I learned that we should apply EQ to a file before compression... but not sure how to use it in Audacity.
2. Is there an order for editing that we should do? Eg. EQ first, Compression, Normalize, and Noise Reduction?
Regards
Hi Mike, great tutorial. Finally found an Audacity channel I'll be following :) Question: after you compressed, you saved the file, should you have done that? Now the raw file has compression saved in it, and I don't think you did that for the other edits. thx
Yes. I can go back to the previous projects if I did something that doesn't sound right. The raw file is never the working file. It's just a backup snapshot of the project at the time I backed it up.
@@LearnAudacity Do you think someday we might have the ability to see a list of effects that have been applied to a file, so that we can easily go back to any point?
@@mrx-in4xh Yep. Non-destructive editing is on its way with stackable effects. I'm hoping we see some of it in version 3.2.
