How do you set a mark in audacity by pressing 1 button during recording. (To mark a point for editing ect.)
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

"To add labels to mark the split points between the LP or cassette tracks, do this:
click in the recorded audio track at the start of each LP or cassette track, starting at the point where the first track starts.
click Project > Add Label at Selection (or its hotkey, CTRL + B)
optionally, start typing the name of the song immediately after Add Label at Selection (notice that what you are typing should now appear in the label to the right of the flag, in the Label Track). You can skip typing in the labels if you prefer, and instead choose a numeric sequence when you come to the Export Multiple command.
if you wanted to lengthen the gap between this track and the previous one, you could do it now: click in the audio track in the current gap, then Generate >Silence and choose the length of silence to insert. You could also silence a noisy gap by selecting the area of the gap and then Generate > Silence (or use the Edit > Silence hotkey CTRL + L). Note however that noise between tracks can be used as a noise profile for removing noise from the recording.
click at the start of the second track (this confirms any typing you made in the label),Project > Add label at Selection again, type the second label and so on."
..and
"Set regions while playing and stopped (the same shortcut keys "and "" can be now be used for setting the left boundary while playing, and adjusting that boundary while stopped). To use for creation of multiple region-labels while playing: use "then "" to mark left and right boundary, CTRL + B to label, then up arrow (⇑) and repeat process as required"

Yeah it it took me a while to find also. Was interesting to me because i have been trying to figure out how to do just that with audacity for a while.
I thought the answer was going to be in a plugin. That was where I spent a while looking at first, then I randomly came across a forum post and tried it out.
Nice answer you beat me to it, I have been searching through forums for a while, I knew there was a way and just finally came across it. Left it open because I didn't think anyone was going to answer.
thats great, but i need to do it in realtime. we have a host on our podcast who needs to be bleeped heaps. it might help that im using the beta of audacity.
This does work as you are recording. You must click the spot in the recording with the mouse and then press the keyboard shortcut keys. I have tested it myself.
