simplest way to add an effect to only PART of a track.
I learned how to break up a track by clicking where you want to on the track and using S to split. And then I got it to where I can adjust volume on the split up sections. But now I would like to learn how to put an effect on spots. Not the whole track.
I know there is info out there in youtube land. I watch them sometimes. But I do better talking with someone cuz most of the time I fall asleep when watching the vids.
Kenny's voice is soooooo soothing. LOL.
We are brand new here. Thank you for helping!

Hello and welcome to these forums. You'll find many helpful people here and a lot of useful information. Make sure that you:
-----------------
For both volume levels and FX usage, the easiest thing to do is add Automation Envelopes to the track - one for the track Volume and one for the FX Bypass. Then add envelope points where you want:
One advantage: there is no need to split up the audio into sections.
Loads of details of Automation Envelopes are in the User Guide. And you may find it even better to use the FX's Wet parameter (which will allow you to fade the FX in and out) instead of its Bypass.

I haven’t tried darkstars method. I always use “split items at cursor” to delineate the sections that need envelopes or different effects. Once you have isolated the section(s) you want to add fx to, right click the section and hit “show fx for selected item” and add/remove whatever effects you want. This method works fine if it is just a few tracks/places that need to be changed - if you have a large number of changes like this, darkstars method may be faster.

Split the track as you are doing already and right click on the section you wish to add effects to. Then from the context menu select: Take->Show FX chain for active take (shift-E is a sort cut for me) Any effect you add here will only be applied to the sected part of the track.

Thanks for the tip, Darkstar, I didn't realise you could use automation for effects.

That's what I would do. Simply put the effect on the track and automate the wet parameter.
