I am using Audio Cleaning Lab 16 (ACL16) Deluxe. I am recording tracks from vinyl records. I want to add silence at the beginning of a recorded track OR add silence at the end of a recorded track. How is this done? In audacity, it is very intuitive but its not intuitive in ACL16. Please help.

This may not be the easiest but it works. Copy any object (Edit > Copy) and then Insert it after your last object (Edit > Insert). Then cut a piece of it the length you want for your slience. Now use the volume tool to reduce the volume to nothing. You can now insert your silence anywhere using the Copy/Insert process. Delete the unused copied object you started with.

I agree, some things in ACL16 aren't very intuitive.

Hope this helps!
