    Moving Synchronized Tracks Together

    It's fairly simple to move - that is, time shift - all of the Tracks in an Audacity project Together. In theory - you just enable the "Synchronize Tracks" feature - and time shift to suit. But it could be frustrating if you want to shift only a subset of Tracks - vis-à-vis the others in the project - which is a more likely use case anyway. In this Episode - we'll send that can't-move-the-right-Tracks-Together frustration to /dev/null.
