From the video description
Edit more precisely in Audacity by combining zoom controls with accurate time selections. Lesson 5 shows how to navigate a long waveform, select the exact region you need and preview an edit before applying it.
You’ll learn: • Zoom in, zoom out and fit the project • Zoom to a selected region • Click-and-drag time selections • Adjusting selection boundaries • Using the Selection Toolbar for exact timing • Snap settings and boundary guides • Previewing before cutting, deleting or applying an effect
Shortcuts can differ by operating system or custom preferences. In the current manual, Zoom to Selection is Ctrl+E on Windows/Linux.
