Click on File > Save Project > Save Project or File > Save Project > Save Project As. Start Audacity: a new untitled project window opens. For example: your first step will be to import the audio that you will be recording your narration against you will not need to cut the narration to fit the background track. If you are overdubbing your narration certain parts of the work flow presented below will change or be eliminated.
Otherwise please read the tutorial on overdubbing for details on how to set up Audacity so you can hear both the background track and yourself in your headphones. If you do not need to hear yourself in the headphones you can continue with this tutorial. use headphones (to listen to the background track) so that your microphone will pick up only your voice.make sure that Transport > Transport Options > Overdub (on/off) is checked.If you need to listen to the background while recording your narration (for example to record a commentary), you should: Your listeners cannot see you so do not have the visual cues they would have if your were speaking to them in person. Speak in a normal, conversational tone of voice, but also speak clearly and enunciate carefully. While you are talking, try to keep looking in one direction - moving your head left or right, up or down, while you are talking will change the tonal quality of your voice, and may be distracting to your listeners. Finally, try to set up the microphone so that it is 4 to 6 inches away from your mouth. This avoids "popped p's" and other breath effects from ruining your recording. Setting up the microphone so that it is level with your mouth but a little off to the side also works.
If you can, place the microphone so that you are talking past it - think David Letterman and that microphone he has on his desk: he's always talking over it. When speaking into the microphone, point the microphone at your mouth but do not point your mouth at the microphone. Try to place it so that it picks up a minimum of computer noise (hard drives, fan). Consider where your microphone is going to be in relation to everything else in the room.
