Now that your audio segments are marked, the next step is to label these sections for easier organization and processing. Here’s how to label your segments in Audacity.

Steps to Label Your Segments: #

Step 1: Label the First Segment
Highlight the first segment up to the 5-minute mark. Go to Edit > Labels > Add Label at Selection. Enter a name for the label that designates the segment appropriately.

Step 2: Label the Second Segment
Highlight the second segment as defined in your selection. Go to Edit > Labels > Add Label at Selection. Add a name to this label.

Step 3: Label the Third Segment
Highlight the segment from the 10-minute to the 30-minute mark. Go to Edit > Labels > Add Label at Selection. Name the label according to your project’s organization.

Step 4: Label the Final Segment
Highlight and label the last section based on its designation.

Finalizing the Project: #

Step 1: Save the Labeled Project
Once all segments are labeled, go to File > Save Project As. Save the project with a descriptive name, such as “Final Processing.” Click Save to store the project and associated data.

By labeling your segments, you make your audio project easier to navigate and prepare for the next steps in processing or exporting.
