generaTe MenU
If you choose an item from the Generate Menu when there are no tracks
in a project, a new track is created . Otherwise, the current track is used .
If a track is selected and the cursor is placed in a single place in the track
audio is inserted at the cursor position . The default duration is 30 seconds .
The audio created will replace the any selection, otherwise it is inserted
into the track, shifting up later parts of the track .
silence
- Inserts silence .
Tone
- Creates a Sine wave, Square wave or Sawtooth wave .
white noise
- Inserts random audio samples, which sound like pure static .
Any items which appear after these three built-ins are VST, Ladspa or Nyquist
plug-ins . It is possible for a poorly written plug-in to crash Audacity, so always
save your work before using a plug-in . Note that any effect that doesn’t take
any audio as input will automatically be placed in the Generate Menu .
